PLV1V820MDL1

The PLV1V820MDL1 is a radial lead conductive-polymer aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon’s PLV series, specified at 82 µF and 35 V. It delivers low equivalent series resistance and high ripple-current capability in a compact radial-can package, designed for demanding electrical environments.

Targeted for automotive and industrial electronics, this capacitor offers long-life endurance at elevated temperature, RoHS compliance and AEC-Q200 qualification, providing a reliable energy-storage and decoupling option where low ESR and stable performance over temperature are required.

Key Features

• Electrical: 82 µF, 35 V — Rated capacitance of 82 µF at a 35 V working voltage with ±20% tolerance (120 Hz, 20°C).
• Low ESR — Equivalent series resistance of 27 mΩ measured at 100 kHz, supporting efficient high-frequency decoupling.
• High ripple current capability — Rated ripple current 1.15 A at 120 Hz and 2.3 A at 100 kHz for robust handling of AC stress.
• Long-life endurance — Endurance specified as 3000 hours at 105°C, with post-test limits on capacitance change, tan δ and ESR.
• Wide operating temperature — Specified for –55°C to +105°C operation to accommodate harsh thermal environments.
• Package & assembly — Radial lead, can-style package with 3.5 mm lead spacing; compatible with lead-free flow soldering conditions.
• Standards & compliance — AEC-Q200 compliant and RoHS (2011/65/EU,(EU)2015/863) compliant.
• Polarized, through-hole mounting — Radial lead configuration for secure PCB attachment in through-hole assemblies.

Typical Applications

• Automotive electronic modules: Energy storage and power-supply smoothing where AEC-Q200 qualification and high ripple handling are required.
• Power supply decoupling: Local bulk and high-frequency decoupling on DC–DC converters and regulator outputs, leveraging low ESR and high ripple-current ratings.
• Industrial control equipment: Robust filtering and transient absorption in control and drive electronics operating across –55°C to +105°C.

Unique Advantages

• Low-loss operation: 27 mΩ ESR at 100 kHz reduces dissipation and improves voltage stability under dynamic load conditions.
• High ripple endurance: Specified ripple currents at both low and high frequency minimize heating and extend service life in AC-stressed circuits.
• Extended high-temperature life: 3000 hours at 105°C provides predictable long-term behavior in hot operating environments.
• Automotive-grade qualification: AEC-Q200 compliance supports use in automotive and similarly demanding system designs.
• Assembly-friendly radial package: Through-hole radial can with lead-free flow soldering compatibility simplifies integration into traditional PCB assembly processes.
• Wide temperature operation: –55°C to +105°C rating enables reliable performance across broad environmental ranges.
