Overview of PLS0G681MDO1 – Radial Lead Conductive Polymer Aluminum Capacitor (680 µF, 4 V)

The PLS0G681MDO1 is a conductive polymer aluminum solid electrolytic capacitor in a radial lead can designed for general-purpose electronic applications that require ultra-low ESR and high ripple current handling. It combines a compact radial-can package with long-life assurance to support demanding power-conditioning roles in assemblies that accept radial through-hole components.

Key electrical characteristics include 680 µF capacitance at 4 V, an operating temperature range of −55 °C to +105 °C, and a rated load life of 5000 hours at 105 °C. This product is scheduled to be discontinued and is not recommended for new designs.

Key Features

  • Dielectric / Construction — Conductive polymer aluminum solid electrolytic capacitor offering stable electrical performance in a radial lead, can-style package.
  • Capacitance & Voltage — 680 µF nominal capacitance with a rated voltage of 4 V and capacitance tolerance of ±20% (at 120 Hz, 20 °C).
  • Ultra-low ESR — Specified ESR of 7 mOhm measured at 100 kHz, 20 °C, supporting low-loss operation in high-frequency applications.
  • High Ripple Current — Rated ripple current of 2.9 A at 120 Hz and 5.8 A at 100 kHz to handle sustained AC stress on power rails.
  • Long Life Endurance — Load life specified at 5000 hours at 105 °C; after this test the capacitance change remains within ±20% and ESR and tan δ remain within 150% of initial values.
  • Wide Temperature Range — Operates from −55 °C to +105 °C, with impedance stability across the range (Z(+105 °C)/Z(+20 °C) ≤ 1.25 at 100 kHz).
  • Radial Lead Package — Radial, can-style package with 3.5 mm lead spacing and suitability for lead-free flow soldering conditions as specified.
  • Environmental Compliance — RoHS compliant (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).
  • Polarized Component — Designed for polarized applications; verify orientation during assembly.

Typical Applications

  • General-purpose power conditioning — Use where low ESR and high ripple handling are required to stabilize DC rails and reduce voltage ripple in electronic equipment.
  • Decoupling and smoothing — Effective for bulk decoupling or output filtering on voltage rails that require large capacitance in a compact radial package.
  • Through-hole assemblies — Suited to legacy or repair applications that utilize radial lead, can-style capacitors and require lead-free flow soldering compatibility.

Unique Advantages

  • Low-loss performance: 7 mOhm ESR at 100 kHz reduces dissipation and helps maintain voltage stability under high-frequency ripple.
  • High ripple capability: Ripple currents rated at 2.9 A (120 Hz) and 5.8 A (100 kHz) enable sustained AC stress handling on power rails.
  • Compact radial package: 1.2 cm × 0.8 cm footprint (L × D) in a radial can simplifies integration into through-hole board layouts.
  • Extended operating range: −55 °C to +105 °C with impedance stability across temperature supports a wide set of environmental conditions.
  • Proven endurance: Rated for 5000 hours at 105 °C with controlled limits on capacitance change and ESR/tan δ increase for predictable long-term behavior.
  • RoHS-compliant manufacturing: Conforms to RoHS directives, including (EU)2015/863, for environmental regulatory compliance.

Why Choose PLS0G681MDO1?

The PLS0G681MDO1 positions itself as a solution for existing designs that require a conductive polymer aluminum capacitor with very low ESR, strong ripple-current capability, and a compact radial package. Its 680 µF/4 V rating, combined with a 5000-hour life at 105 °C and RoHS compliance, makes it appropriate for power-conditioning and decoupling roles in through-hole assemblies.

Please note this part is scheduled for discontinuation and is not recommended for new designs; it remains relevant for maintaining or repairing systems that already incorporate this capacitor specification.
