Part Details for MLV1206E32503T by Vishay Intertechnologies

The recommended land pattern for MLV1206E32503T is a rectangular pad with a size of 1.3 mm x 0.8 mm, with a non-solder mask defined (NSMD) pad shape. This is to ensure proper soldering and to prevent solder bridging.

While the MLV1206E32503T is rated for operation up to 150°C, it's essential to consider the derating curves and thermal management in high-temperature applications. Ensure that the component is properly cooled, and the operating temperature is within the specified range to prevent degradation or failure.

Handle the MLV1206E32503T with care during PCB assembly and rework to prevent mechanical stress, which can cause damage to the internal components. Use a vacuum pickup or tweezers to handle the component, and avoid bending or flexing the leads. For rework, use a low-temperature soldering process and avoid applying excessive heat or force.

The ESR of the MLV1206E32503T is not explicitly stated in the datasheet. However, according to Vishay's application notes, the ESR of similar MLV series capacitors is typically in the range of 10-50 mΩ. For more accurate information, consult with Vishay's technical support or perform your own measurements.

Yes, the MLV1206E32503T can be used in DC-DC converter applications due to its high-frequency characteristics and low ESR. However, ensure that the capacitor is properly sized and selected based on the converter's operating frequency, voltage, and current requirements. Consult with Vishay's application notes and technical support for guidance on selecting the appropriate capacitor for your specific application.
