The **HTX-63V560MH10X-R2** is a high-performance surface-mount (SMD) aluminum electrolytic capacitor. It is part of the **HTX Series**, which is known for its high temperature resistance and low ESR (Equivalent Series Resistance) characteristics. --- ### 1. Technical Specifications | Parameter | Specification | | :--- | :--- | | **Capacitance** | 56 µF | | **Voltage Rating** | 63V DC | | **Tolerance** | ±20% (at 120Hz, 20°C) | | **Temperature Range** | -55°C to +125°C | | **Lifetime (Endurance)** | 2,000 to 5,000 hours at 125°C | | **Case Size (D x L)** | 10mm x 10.2mm (Approx.) | | **Mounting Type** | Surface Mount (SMD) | | **ESR Type** | Low ESR | --- ### 2. Breakdown of the Part Number While specific manufacturer codes vary slightly (often associated with brands like **Jianghai** or **Rubycon**), the nomenclature typically breaks down as follows: * **HTX**: The series designation (High Temperature/Low ESR). * **63V**: The maximum working voltage (63 Volts). * **560**: The capacitance code. The first two digits are the value, and the third is the multiplier (56 x 10^0 = 56µF). * **MH10**: Refers to the physical case size and height dimensions. * **R2**: Usually denotes the packaging format (e.g., Tape & Reel) or a specific revision/lead-free status. --- ### 3. Key Features & Applications #### Features * **Thermal Stability:** Designed to operate in extreme environments up to **125°C**, making it much more robust than standard 85°C or 105°C capacitors. * **Low Impedance:** Optimized for high-frequency filtering, which minimizes energy loss and heat generation. * **Vibration Resistance:** The SMD "V-chip" construction provides better mechanical stability on PCBs compared to radial through-hole components. #### Common Applications 1. **Automotive Electronics:** Used in Engine Control Units (ECUs) and lighting systems where under-the-hood temperatures are high. 2. **Industrial Power Supplies:** Ideal for DC/DC converters and switching regulators. 3. **Telecommunications:** Used in base stations and outdoor networking hardware. 4. **LED Drivers:** Provides smoothing and filtering in high-heat lighting applications. --- ### 4.
