Overview of PLS1A151MDL4 – Conductive Polymer Aluminum Solid Electrolytic Capacitor, Radial Lead, 150 µF / 10 V
The PLS1A151MDL4 is a conductive polymer aluminum solid electrolytic capacitor in a radial lead can package designed for general-purpose electronic use. It combines ultra-low ESR and high ripple current capability with a long rated load life to support reliable power filtering in compact assemblies.
Key design attributes include a 150 µF capacitance at 10 V, a wide operating temperature range from −55°C to 105°C, RoHS compliance, and radial lead construction optimized for lead-free flow soldering conditions.
Key Features
- Conductive polymer electrolyte — Solid polymer construction delivers ultra-low ESR for improved power delivery and reduced losses.
- High ripple current handling — Rated for 1.5 A at 120 Hz and 3 A at 100 kHz to support high‑ripple power applications.
- Long load life — Specified for 5000 hours at 105°C, offering extended endurance under elevated temperature stress.
- Wide temperature range — Operates from −55°C to +105°C to cover a broad set of environmental conditions.
- Low ESR specification — 20 mΩ ESR measured at 100 kHz (20°C) for improved transient response and lower heat generation.
- Radial lead package — Compact can with 2.5 mm lead spacing (L: 1.05 × D: 0.63 cm) for through-hole or mixed-technology assemblies; compatible with lead-free flow soldering conditions.
- RoHS compliant — Meets RoHS directive requirements for lead‑free manufacturing.
Typical Applications
- Power filtering and decoupling — Low ESR and high ripple current make this capacitor suitable for smoothing and decoupling in power rails and regulators.
- High-frequency power stages — 20 mΩ ESR at 100 kHz and a 3 A high-frequency ripple rating support performance in high‑frequency switching environments.
- Compact through-hole assemblies — Radial lead form factor and small footprint (1.05 × 0.63 cm) fit densely packed PCBs where through-hole components are required.
Unique Advantages
- Improved thermal endurance: Rated for 5000 hours at 105°C to provide longer operational life under sustained thermal stress.
- Enhanced transient performance: Ultra-low ESR (20 mΩ at 100 kHz) reduces voltage droop and improves transient response on power rails.
- High ripple tolerance: 1.5 A (120 Hz) and 3 A (100 kHz) ripple ratings lower the risk of overheating in high-current ripple scenarios.
- Compact radial package: Small can size with 2.5 mm lead spacing simplifies placement in through-hole and mixed-technology designs.
- RoHS compliance: Conforms to RoHS directives for lead‑free production environments.
Why Choose PLS1A151MDL4?
PLS1A151MDL4 is positioned for designs that require a compact, long-life electrolytic solution with very low ESR and robust ripple-current capability. Its conductive polymer construction and 5000-hour life at 105°C make it well suited for demanding power-filtering roles in compact through-hole assemblies.
This part is appropriate for engineers and procurement teams seeking a reliable, RoHS-compliant radial lead capacitor that balances endurance, thermal range (−55°C to +105°C), and high-frequency performance (20 mΩ ESR at 100 kHz, 3 A ripple at 100 kHz).
