GWC1H121MCO1GS

The GWC1H121MCO1GS is a conductive polymer hybrid aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a surface-mount can package. It delivers 120 µF at 50 V with low ESR and high ripple-current capability tailored for electronics that operate in elevated-temperature environments.

Designed for reliability in demanding conditions, this AEC-Q200 rated, RoHS-compliant capacitor offers long life at high temperature (4000 hours at 135°C) and is supplied in embossed carrier taping for automated assembly.

Key Features

• Core Electrostatic Performance — 120 µF capacitance at 50 V with ±20% tolerance, providing predictable energy storage for power decoupling and filtering.
• Low Impedance / High Ripple Handling — 20 mΩ ESR (measured at 100 kHz, 20°C) with rated ripple currents of 450 mA (120 Hz) and 3 A (100 kHz), enabling effective suppression of voltage ripple across a wide frequency range.
• High-Temperature Endurance — Rated operating range −55°C to 135°C and specified endurance of 4000 hours at 135°C, supporting prolonged operation in hot environments.
• Conductive Polymer Hybrid Construction — Hybrid polymer technology for lower loss and improved high-frequency performance compared with conventional electrolytics.
• Surface-Mount Packaging — φ10x10L SMD can (radial can style) supplied on embossed carrier taping for reliable pick-and-place and reflow-ready assembly.
• Quality & Compliance — AEC-Q200 rated and RoHS compliant for usage in regulated production environments where qualified components are required.
• Leakage and Reliability — Low leakage current (specified 60 µA) and endurance characteristics defined for capacitance, tan δ and ESR after life testing at elevated temperature.

Typical Applications

• Automotive electronics — Suitable for automotive subsystems that require AEC-Q200 qualification and stable operation at elevated temperatures up to 135°C.
• High-temperature power systems — Use where long life at high ambient temperature and robust ripple handling are required, enabled by 4000 h endurance at 135°C and high-frequency ripple capability.
• Automated surface-mount assemblies — Designed for pick-and-place assembly from embossed carrier taping into SMD workflows.

Unique Advantages

• Reliable high-temperature performance: 4000 hours at 135°C ensures predictable lifetime behavior in elevated-temperature applications.
• Low ESR for improved efficiency: 20 mΩ ESR at 100 kHz reduces losses and improves power-conversion stability in high-frequency circuits.
• High ripple capability across frequencies: Rated ripple currents of 450 mA (120 Hz) and 3 A (100 kHz) support both low- and high-frequency filtering needs.
• AEC-Q200 qualification: Enables inclusion in designs requiring automotive-grade components and associated reliability standards.
• Surface-mount can with tape-and-reel: φ10x10L SMD can format and embossed carrier taping simplify automated assembly and handling.
• Low leakage for stable biasing: Specified leakage current supports designs sensitive to standby loss and bias accuracy.
