Overview of PLV1V560MCL1 – Radial Lead Conductive Polymer Aluminum Capacitor, 56 µF, 35 V
The PLV1V560MCL1 is a conductive polymer aluminum solid electrolytic capacitor in a radial lead can designed for high-ripple, low-ESR power applications. With a rated capacitance of 56 µF at 35 V and a compact φ8 × 9 mm package, it targets automotive and other demanding electronic systems that require robust performance across a wide temperature range.
Key value comes from its low ESR, high ripple-current capability and long endurance (3000 hours at 105°C), delivering stable filtering and decoupling performance in compact radial-lead form factors.
Key Features
- Capacitance & Voltage — 56 µF nominal capacitance with ±20% tolerance, rated for 35 V operation.
- Low ESR — 29 mΩ ESR measured at 100 kHz and 20°C, supporting efficient high-frequency decoupling and reduced heat generation.
- High Ripple Current — 950 mA at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 1.9 A at 100 kHz (high frequency), enabling robust smoothing under dynamic load conditions.
- Loss Angle (tan δ) — tanδ = 0.12 at 20°C, 120 Hz, providing predictable dissipation characteristics for circuit design.
- Long Life & Endurance — 3000 hours rated life at 105°C with defined limits for capacitance change, tanδ and ESR after endurance testing.
- Wide Temperature Range — Rated for operation from −55°C to +105°C to cover harsh environments.
- Automotive-Grade Qualification — AEC-Q200 compliant rating and specified for automotive applications.
- Package & Mounting — Radial lead (can) package, size φ8 × 9 mm with 3.5 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm), supplied bulk or bag-packed (no terminal forming).
- Regulatory — RoHS compliant and compatible with lead-free flow soldering conditions as specified in the series documentation.
Typical Applications
- Automotive Electronics — Suitable for power filtering and decoupling in automotive control modules where AEC-Q200 qualification and extended temperature operation are required.
- Power Supply Filtering — Low ESR and high ripple current make it appropriate for smoothing and bulk decoupling in DC/DC converters and power rails.
- High-Frequency Decoupling — 29 mΩ ESR at 100 kHz and 1.9 A HF ripple rating support decoupling near switching components and regulators.
Unique Advantages
- Compact, high-energy density — 56 µF in a φ8 × 9 mm radial can provides significant capacitance in a small footprint for space-constrained designs.
- High ripple tolerance — Combined low ESR and 1.9 A high-frequency ripple rating reduce heating and improve reliability under dynamic loads.
- Designed for elevated temperatures — 3000-hour endurance at 105°C supports long-term stability in thermally demanding environments.
- Automotive-grade assurance — AEC-Q200 compliance supports qualification needs for vehicle electronics projects.
- Lead-free assembly compatibility — Radial lead form and correspondence to lead-free flow soldering conditions ease integration into lead-free manufacturing processes.
- Regulatory compliance — RoHS-compliant construction meets environmental materials requirements.
