GXC1H680MCQ1GS

The GXC1H680MCQ1GS is a conductive polymer hybrid aluminum electrolytic chip capacitor engineered for high-reliability applications. It is a surface-mount, can-style SMD capacitor specified for operation to 135°C and qualified to AEC-Q200.

Targeted at demanding electronic systems, this 68 µF, 50 V polarized capacitor delivers low ESR and high ripple-current capability for robust power filtering and decoupling in elevated-temperature environments.

Key Features

• Dielectric and construction — Conductive polymer hybrid aluminum electrolytic, chip-type construction for SMD assembly in a radial, can-style package.
• High-temperature endurance — Rated operating temperature range –55°C to +135°C with a rated lifetime of 4000 hours at 135°C.
• Electrical performance — 68 µF capacitance at 50 V with ±20% tolerance and polarization as specified.
• Low ESR and high ripple capability — ESR of 24 mΩ at 100 kHz (20°C); ripple current ratings of 375 mA at 120 Hz and 2.5 A at 100 kHz.
• Endurance and stability — After endurance testing (DC bias plus rated ripple for 4000 hours at 125°C or 135°C), capacitance remains within ±30% and ESR/tan δ increase limits are defined (ESR and tan δ ≤ 200% of initial specified values).
• Leakage current — After 2 minutes’ application of rated voltage at 20°C, leakage current is specified as not more than 0.01·C·V (µA), per series specification.
• Assembly and board footprint — Surface-mount can with package dimensions L: 1.0 cm × D: 0.8 cm and recommended land size L: 8.3 mm × W: 8.3 mm.
• Compliance and qualification — AEC-Q200 qualified and RoHS compliant (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).

Typical Applications

• Automotive electronic modules — AEC-Q200 qualification and 135°C capability make this capacitor suitable for automotive control units and power electronics that require high-temperature endurance.
• High-temperature power supplies — Low ESR and high ripple-current handling support DC–DC converters and power-filtering stages operating in elevated-temperature environments.
• Harsh-environment electronics — Designed for systems requiring long-term stability under thermal and electrical stress, including industrial and transportation electronics.

Unique Advantages

• High-temperature lifetime: 4000 hours at 135°C provides a clear, quantifiable endurance metric for designs that must survive sustained elevated temperatures.
• Low-loss, high-ripple capability: 24 mΩ ESR at 100 kHz and 2.5 A ripple at 100 kHz reduce power losses and improve filtering performance under high-frequency ripple conditions.
• Automotive-grade qualification: AEC-Q200 qualification supports use in automotive-grade modules and simplifies acceptance for vehicle electronics projects.
• Compact SMD can format: Small footprint (1.0 cm × 0.8 cm) and defined land pattern (8.3 mm × 8.3 mm) enable space-efficient board layouts while retaining high performance.
• Clear electrical and reliability limits: Defined endurance, leakage, and soldering-heat criteria (including ±10% capacitance change limit after 30 s at 250°C hot-plate) make qualification and reliability assessments straightforward.
• RoHS compliant: Meets current RoHS directives for environmental requirements.
