GXC1V101MCW1GS

The GXC1V101MCW1GS is a surface-mount, conductive polymer hybrid aluminum electrolytic capacitor in Nichicon’s GXC series. It delivers 100 µF capacitance at a 35 V rating with low ESR and high ripple-current capability for demanding power applications.

Designed for high-reliability environments, this part targets automotive and other high-temperature electronics where endurance, low loss and compact SMD packaging are required.

Key Features

• Electrical Characteristics — 100 µF capacitance with ±20% tolerance and rated voltage of 35 V. Tangent of loss angle (tan δ) is 0.12 at 35 V (120 Hz, 20°C).
• Low Loss / Low ESR — ESR of 18 mΩ measured at 100 kHz, 20°C, supporting high-frequency decoupling and converter stability.
• High Ripple Current Capacity — Low-frequency ripple current 420 mA (120 Hz) and high-frequency ripple current 2.8 A (100 kHz) to handle both bulk and switching noise currents.
• Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 35 µA (per datasheet condition), providing predictable bias characteristics.
• Wide Temperature & Long Life — Operating range −55°C to +135°C with endurance of 4000 hours at 135°C under rated conditions.
• Automotive-Grade Reliability — AEC-Q200 qualified and designed for high-reliability chip-type operation at elevated temperatures.
• Compact SMD Can Package — Radial can SMD package, size φ8 × 10 mm, surface-mount land size 8.3 × 8.3 mm; vibration resistant and supplied in embossed carrier taping for automated assembly.
• Standards & Compliance — Compliant with RoHS requirements; mass-production status for supply stability.

Typical Applications

• Automotive electronics — Designed for use in vehicle electronics where AEC-Q200 qualification and high-temperature endurance are required.
• Power-supply decoupling — Low ESR and high ripple-current ratings make it suitable for smoothing and decoupling in DC–DC converters and power modules.
• High-temperature systems — Engine control modules and other high-heat environments benefit from the −55°C to +135°C range and 4000-hour endurance at 135°C.

Unique Advantages

• Proven high-temperature endurance: 4000-hour rated life at 135°C supports designs that operate continuously at elevated temperatures.
• High ripple-handling capability: Combined LF and HF ripple ratings (420 mA / 2.8 A) reduce need for parallel capacitance in many power designs.
• Low ESR at high frequency: 18 mΩ at 100 kHz improves converter efficiency and transient response.
• Automotive-grade qualification: AEC-Q200 rating supports deployment in safety- and reliability-focused systems.
• Surface-mount convenience: Compact φ8 × 10 mm SMD can and embossed carrier taping streamline board-level assembly and handling.
