Overview of GXC1J680MCQ1GS – 68 µF, 63 V Conductive Polymer Hybrid Aluminum Electrolytic (Chip SMD)
The GXC1J680MCQ1GS is a conductive polymer hybrid aluminum electrolytic chip capacitor designed for surface-mount applications. It delivers low equivalent series resistance (ESR) and high ripple-current capability in a compact chip-style radial can SMD package.
Targeted at demanding environments, the part is rated for operation from -55 °C to 135 °C, offers a long life of 4000 hours at 135 °C, and carries AEC-Q200 qualification and RoHS compliance—making it suitable for high-temperature and automotive electronics where sustained performance and reliability are required.
Key Features
- Capacitance & Voltage — 68 µF rated capacitance at 63 V for mid-voltage energy storage and decoupling tasks.
- Low ESR — ESR of 22 mΩ measured at 100 kHz, 20 °C; enables efficient high-frequency performance and reduced losses.
- High Ripple Current — Rated ripple current up to 2.8 A at 100 kHz (and 420 mA at 120 Hz), supporting high-current switching and power conversion applications.
- High Temperature Endurance — Rated operating range of -55 °C to 135 °C with a specified life of 4000 hours at 135 °C under DC bias plus ripple.
- Reliability & Qualification — AEC-Q200 qualified and RoHS compliant; endurance, shelf-life and damp-heat characteristics are specified in the product datasheet.
- Package & Mounting — Chip-type radial can for surface-mount assembly; nominal footprint/size dimensions L: 1.0 cm × D: 1.0 cm and recommended land size L: 1.03 cm × W: 1.03 cm.
- Electrical Characteristics — Capacitance tolerance ±20% at 120 Hz, 20 °C; leakage current specified as ≤ 0.01CV (µA) after 2 minutes at rated voltage.
Typical Applications
- Automotive power electronics — Suitable for in-vehicle modules and control units requiring AEC-Q200 qualification and high-temperature endurance.
- Power conversion and regulation — Low ESR and high ripple-current capability support smoothing and decoupling in DC/DC converters and power-supply stages.
- High-temperature industrial electronics — Designed for equipment operating in elevated ambient temperatures up to 135 °C with long-life requirements.
- Space-constrained surface-mount designs — Chip SMD radial can package and compact 1.0 cm × 1.0 cm dimensions for board-level integration where PCB area is limited.
Unique Advantages
- Designed for sustained high-temperature operation — 4000 hours life at 135 °C provides predictable long-term behavior in elevated-temperature applications.
- High AC performance — Low ESR (22 mΩ at 100 kHz) combined with 2.8 A ripple-current rating at 100 kHz reduces losses and supports efficient power-handling.
- AEC-Q200 qualification — Formal reliability qualification streamlines use in automotive-grade and other high-reliability applications.
- Compact SMD form factor — Chip-type radial can enables surface-mount assembly and dense PCB layouts while maintaining robust electrical performance.
- RoHS compliant — Meets RoHS directive requirements for restricted substances.
