Key Features
- 220 µF at 25 V DC in an anti-vibration 6-pin SMD package providing up to 5× higher vibration resistance compared to standard 2-pin electrolytic capacitors
- AEC-Q200 automotive-grade qualification ensuring reliable performance from -40°C to +105°C in under-hood and body electronics applications
- ±20% capacitance tolerance with low ESR construction supporting efficient ripple current filtering in automotive DC-DC converters
- 6-pin surface-mount footprint distributing mechanical stress across multiple solder joints for improved solder joint reliability under vibration and thermal cycling
Applications
The EEE-FTE221XAV is designed for automotive bulk capacitance and power supply filtering applications in ECUs, ADAS sensor modules, and body control modules where standard 2-pin SMD capacitors are insufficient for vibration durability requirements. Its AEC-Q200 qualification and anti-vibration 6-pin construction make it suitable for engine management systems and EV inverter gate drive supply decoupling exposed to continuous vibration above 20 g. The SMD format supports automated reflow assembly on automotive-grade PCB production lines.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why does the EEE-FTE221XAV use 6 pins instead of the standard 2 pins for an SMD electrolytic capacitor?
The 6-pin anti-vibration design of the EEE-FTE221XAV distributes mechanical stress across 6 solder joints instead of 2, providing up to 5 times higher vibration resistance compared to standard SMD electrolytic capacitors. In automotive applications with vibration levels exceeding 20 g (per ISO 16750-3), 2-pin capacitors can experience solder joint fatigue and intermittent contact, while the 6-pin construction maintains reliable 220 µF capacitance under continuous vibration throughout the vehicle's service life.
What is the voltage and capacitance rating of the EEE-FTE221XAV, and how does the ±20% tolerance affect power supply filter design?
The EEE-FTE221XAV is rated at 25 V DC with 220 µF nominal capacitance and ±20% tolerance, meaning actual capacitance may range from 176 µF to 264 µF. For a 12 V automotive bulk supply filter, designers should base calculations on the worst-case 176 µF value to ensure adequate hold-up time and ripple attenuation across all production units, typically targeting a minimum of 10× the switching frequency period of a 100 kHz DC-DC converter.
What automotive qualification does the EEE-FTE221XAV hold, and which vehicle environments does it support?
The EEE-FTE221XAV is qualified to AEC-Q200, the passive component automotive stress qualification standard, confirming reliable operation from -40°C to +105°C under automotive temperature and humidity cycling. This makes it suitable for under-hood ECU power filtering at up to 105°C ambient, ADAS sensor module supply decoupling, and EV battery management system bulk capacitance where IEC 60068-2 vibration and thermal shock endurance are required.
How should PCB designers size the land pattern for the EEE-FTE221XAV's 6-pin footprint to ensure reliable solder joint strength?
The EEE-FTE221XAV's 6-pin anti-vibration footprint uses a proprietary pad arrangement specified in Panasonic's recommended land pattern, with 6 pads distributed symmetrically around the capacitor body to spread mechanical load. Designers should follow the manufacturer's PCB land pattern with pad dimensions and spacing matching the component's lead pitch, use a minimum solder mask opening of 0.1 mm per pad, and apply a recommended solder paste volume that achieves a fillet height of at least 0.3 mm per pin to meet automotive vibration endurance requirements above 20 g.
