Cornell Dubilier Aluminum Electrolytic MLP173M010EK0B

The MLP173M010EK0B is a flatpack aluminum electrolytic capacitor in the MLP series, designed for voltage holdup and filtering in military, telecom, and computer applications. It features a 1.5-inch case length (EK), 17,000 µF capacitance at 10 Vdc, ±20% tolerance, and a maximum ESR of 77 mΩ at 120 Hz. The component supports a temperature range of −55°C to +85°C, with a 50-year rated life at +45°C, and withstands vibration up to 10g per MIL-STD-202 and IEC 60068-2-6. The case is aluminum, terminated with 18 AWG copper wires, and mounts via tabs. Ripple current capability is rated at 4.2 A at 120 Hz and 4.5 A at 20 kHz for an 85°C case temperature, with double this capability achievable using an external heatsink. The part is hermetically sealed and configured with polyester insulation and mounting tabs (0B).
