Key Features

• Capacitance & Rated Voltage — 27 µF nominal capacitance with a 63 V rated voltage and ±20% tolerance for reliable bulk energy storage and smoothing.
• Conductive-Polymer Construction — Solid electrolytic, conductive-polymer design providing low ESR and stable performance across temperature.
• Low ESR — ESR of 33 mΩ measured at 100 kHz (20°C), enabling improved transient response and reduced loss in power circuits.
• High Ripple Current — Rated ripple current of 1.05 A at 120 Hz and 2.1 A at 100 kHz to support switching supplies and high-frequency decoupling.
• Long-Life Endurance — 3000 hours at 105°C rated lifetime; endurance specifications include limits on capacitance change, tan δ, ESR and leakage current after test conditions.
• Temperature Range — Operational range from −55°C to +105°C for broad environmental tolerance.
• Radial Lead Package — Radial can package with 3.5 mm lead spacing and compact footprint (L: 1.2 × D: 0.8 cm) for through-hole mounting and robust mechanical connection.
• Compliance & Reliability — AEC-Q200 compliant and RoHS directive compliant, supporting regulated and reliability-focused designs.
• Polarized Device — Polar capacitor suitable for DC filtering and power supply applications that require correct polarity handling.
• Soldering Compatibility — Specified for lead-free flow soldering conditions suitable for standard through-hole assembly processes.

Typical Applications

• Automotive power electronics — Bulk smoothing and decoupling in ECUs and power modules where AEC-Q200 qualification and elevated temperature endurance are required.
• DC/DC converters and switching supplies — Low ESR and high ripple current capability support high-frequency converter output and input filtering.
• Motor drive and inverter support — Energy buffering and transient suppression in motor controllers and power stages exposed to thermal and electrical stress.
• Sensor/actuator power smoothing — Local decoupling for sensors and actuators in harsh environments, benefiting from long-life and wide temperature range.

Unique Advantages

• High-voltage rated for robust designs: 63 V rating enables use in higher-voltage rails where extra headroom is needed.
• Superior ripple handling: Specified ripple currents at both low and high frequencies (1.05 A at 120 Hz; 2.1 A at 100 kHz) reduce heating and extend service life in switching environments.
• Low-loss operation: 33 mΩ ESR at 100 kHz minimizes power dissipation and improves regulator efficiency and transient response.
• Extended high-temperature lifetime: 3000 hours at 105°C supports long-term reliability in thermally demanding installations.
• Automotive-grade reliability: AEC-Q200 compliance and RoHS conformity align the part to regulated, high-reliability markets.
• Through-hole robustness: Radial lead can package with compact footprint and lead-free soldering compatibility simplifies PCB mounting and mechanical durability.
