GXC1J680MCW1GS

The GXC1J680MCW1GS is a conductive polymer hybrid aluminum electrolytic capacitor in Nichicon’s GXC series, designed for high-reliability, high-temperature power applications. Its chip-style SMD can package delivers a compact solution for boards that require robust bulk capacitance and low impedance at elevated temperatures.

Targeted at automotive and other demanding environments, this capacitor combines a wide operating temperature range (−55°C to +135°C), AEC‑Q200 qualification, RoHS compliance, and a long rated life of 4000 hours at 135°C to support sustained performance under high thermal and electrical stress.

Key Features

• Conductive polymer hybrid construction Delivers low ESR and stable performance across frequency and temperature ranges.
• High temperature endurance Rated for 4000 hours at 135°C, with endurance criteria including capacitance change within ±30% after test.
• Low ESR ESR ≤ 22 mΩ at 100 kHz (20°C), enabling improved ripple handling and reduced loss in power circuits.
• High ripple current 2.8 A at 100 kHz and 420 mA at 120 Hz, suitable for demanding decoupling and power smoothing applications.
• Wide operating temperature −55°C to +135°C for use in harsh thermal environments.
• Polarized, surface-mount radial can Chip-type SMD package with compact dimensions (L: 1 cm × D: 1 cm) and specified surface-mount land size (1.03 cm × 1.03 cm).
• Leakage current specification After 2 minutes’ application of rated voltage at 20°C, leakage current ≤ 0.01 × C × V (µA) per datasheet formula.
• AEC‑Q200 qualified and RoHS compliant Meets automotive-grade device qualification and environmental directive requirements.

Typical Applications

• Automotive electronic modules Suitable for power decoupling and smoothing in automotive systems where AEC‑Q200 qualification and high-temperature endurance are required.
• Power conversion and DC‑DC stages Low ESR and high ripple current capability make it appropriate for bulk and output filtering in converter circuits.
• Industrial electronics in high-heat environments Designed to maintain capacitance and acceptable ESR up to +135°C for industrial power electronics exposed to elevated temperatures.
• Embedded systems requiring long-life operation Long rated lifespan (4000 hours at 135°C) supports designs where extended thermal and electrical stress resistance is critical.

Unique Advantages

• High-temperature reliability: 4000 hours at 135°C provides predictable long-term performance in thermal-stressed applications.
• Power-handling efficiency: Low ESR (22 mΩ at 100 kHz) combined with high ripple current (2.8 A at 100 kHz) reduces loss and improves regulator stability.
• Automotive-grade qualification: AEC‑Q200 rating supports use in designs requiring automotive component qualifications.
• Compact SMD form factor: Chip-style can with 1 cm × 1 cm footprint and SMD land dimensions simplifies PCB integration while preserving performance.
• Controlled leakage behavior: Leakage current limited to 0.01CV(µA) after 2 minutes at 20°C, aiding predictable bias behavior in circuits.
