GYA1J680MCQ1GS

The GYA1J680MCQ1GS is a conductive polymer hybrid aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a surface-mount radial can (SMD) package from Nichicon's GYA series. It provides a 68 µF capacitance at a 63 V rating with a ±20% tolerance and is optimized for applications requiring low ESR and elevated temperature endurance.

Designed for automotive and other high-temperature electronics, this part offers long-life endurance up to 4000 hours at 125°C, high ripple current capability, and compact SMD packaging for automated PCB assembly.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 68 µF nominal capacitance at a 63 V rated voltage with ±20% tolerance (at 120 Hz, 20°C).
• Conductive Polymer Hybrid — Hybrid construction provides low equivalent series resistance and improved ripple performance compared with standard electrolytics.
• Low ESR & Ripple Handling — ESR specified at 30 mΩ (20°C, 100 kHz), with high-frequency ripple current up to 1.4 A (100 kHz) and low-frequency ripple current 210 mA (120 Hz).
• High Temperature Endurance — Rated operating temperature range −55°C to +125°C with endurance of 4000 hours at 125°C under rated conditions.
• Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 42.84 µA after application of rated voltage (20°C, measurement conditions per datasheet).
• Package & Placement — Compact SMD radial can: size dimension L: 1.0 cm × D: 1.0 cm, supplied in embossed carrier taping for automated pick-and-place.
• Qualification & Compliance — AEC-Q200 qualified and RoHS compliant, addressing reliability and environmental directives.

Typical Applications

• Automotive Electronics — Bulk smoothing, decoupling and rail support in electronic control units and power modules where high-temperature endurance and AEC-Q200 qualification are required.
• High-Temperature Power Electronics — SMD capacitor solution for power rails in systems operating up to 125°C with long-life requirements.
• Automated PCB Assembly — Embossed carrier taping and compact radial can SMD form factor for efficient pick-and-place and reflow-compatible assembly workflows.

Unique Advantages

• Long High-Temperature Life: 4000 hours at 125°C provides predictable aging and endurance in elevated-temperature environments.
• Low ESR for Improved Performance: 30 mΩ ESR at 100 kHz supports lower losses and better transient response in power and decoupling applications.
• High Ripple Capability: 1.4 A at 100 kHz (high frequency) and 210 mA at 120 Hz (low frequency) reduce heating and extend operational stability under AC-stressed conditions.
• Automotive-Grade Qualification: AEC-Q200 qualification signals suitability for designs that demand automotive-level reliability.
• Compact SMD Packaging: 1.0 × 1.0 cm footprint in an SMD radial can helps minimize board space while supporting automated placement via embossed carrier taping.
• Regulatory Compliance: RoHS compliant construction supports environmental compliance requirements.
