GXC1V271MCW1GS

The GXC1V271MCW1GS is a surface-mount conductive polymer hybrid aluminum electrolytic capacitor in the Nichicon GXC series, engineered for high-temperature, high-reliability power applications. It combines low ESR and high ripple-current capability with a compact chip-style SMD can (φ10 × 10L) to address space-constrained power designs.

Targeted for demanding environments, this capacitor is suitable for automotive and other applications that require long-term stability at elevated temperatures: it is AEC‑Q200 rated and specified for 4000 hours at 135°C.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 270 µF rated capacitance at 35 V with ±20% tolerance for bulk energy storage and decoupling.
• Conductive Polymer Hybrid Construction — Chip-type hybrid aluminum electrolytic design offering low loss and stable performance under bias.
• Low ESR — ESR of 16 mΩ measured at 20°C, 100 kHz, enabling efficient high-frequency performance and reduced power dissipation.
• High Ripple Current — 495 mA at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 3.3 A at 100 kHz (high frequency) to support demanding power-supply ripple conditions.
• High-Temperature Endurance — Designed for operation from −55°C to +135°C with a life rating of 4000 hours at 135°C under rated conditions.
• Loss Characteristics — tan δ (DF) 0.12 at 20°C, 120 Hz (35 V) for predictable dissipation behavior.
• Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 94.5 µA, measured after rated voltage application conditions.
• Robust Packaging — Vibration-resistant chip package in embossed carrier taping suitable for automated surface-mount assembly; SMD can package (φ10 × 10L).
• Regulatory & Quality — RoHS compliant and AEC‑Q200 qualified for automotive-grade reliability.

Typical Applications

• Automotive electronics — Energy storage and smoothing in electronic control units and other vehicle power modules where high-temperature endurance and AEC‑Q200 qualification are required.
• Power-supply filtering — Bulk decoupling and ripple attenuation in DC‑DC converters and board-level power rails, leveraging high ripple-current capability and low ESR.
• High-temperature electronics — Embedded systems and industrial controls operating in elevated ambient temperatures up to 135°C.

Unique Advantages

• High-temperature reliability: 4000-hour endurance at 135°C ensures stable capacitance and ESR over extended service life in hot environments.
• High ripple handling: Combined low ESR (16 mΩ) and high-frequency ripple rating (3.3 A at 100 kHz) reduce heating and improve power-stage efficiency.
• Automotive-grade qualification: AEC‑Q200 rating supports use in automotive systems requiring recognized component-level reliability.
• Compact SMD form factor: φ10 × 10L chip can and embossed carrier taping allow automated placement in space-constrained PCBs.
• Predictable electrical behavior: Specified tan δ and leakage current figures enable accurate thermal and leakage budgeting in designs.
