GYC1C271MCQ1GS

The GYC1C271MCQ1GS is a surface-mount conductive polymer hybrid aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon’s GYC series. It provides 270 µF capacitance at 16 V in a compact φ8 × 10 mm SMD can, designed for applications requiring low ESR and high ripple current handling.

Engineered for high-reliability operation, the part is rated for −55 °C to +135 °C, AEC-Q200 qualified, and offered in embossed carrier taping for automated assembly. Typical attributes include low ESR, measurable low-loss (tan δ = 0.16 at 20 °C, 120 Hz), and long endurance up to 4000 hours at elevated temperature.

Key Features

• Core Technology Conductive polymer hybrid aluminum electrolytic construction for stable capacitance and low-loss performance at rated conditions.
• Electrical Performance 270 µF nominal capacitance with ±20% tolerance, tan δ = 0.16 (20 °C, 120 Hz), and ESR ≤ 25 mΩ at 20 °C / 100 kHz for reduced power loss under AC stress.
• Ripple Handling High ripple capability with 255 mA at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 1.7 A at 100 kHz (high frequency), suitable for circuits with significant ripple currents.
• Reliability & Endurance Rated for 4000 hours endurance at elevated temperature (135 °C) with defined limits for capacitance change, tan δ, ESR, and leakage after endurance testing.
• Package & Assembly Surface-mount radial can (φ8 × 10 mm) in embossed carrier taping for pick-and-place; recommended surface-mount land size 8.3 × 8.3 mm.
• Compliance AEC-Q200 qualified and RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• Automotive electronics AEC-Q200 qualification and high-temperature endurance make this capacitor suitable for automotive control modules and electronic subsystems that require long life at elevated temperatures.
• High-ripple power circuits Low ESR and rated ripple currents (1.7 A at 100 kHz, 255 mA at 120 Hz) address smoothing and decoupling needs in switching power supplies and power converters.
• Compact surface-mount power modules The φ8 × 10 mm SMD can and embossed tape packaging enable integration into space-constrained PCBs and automated assembly lines.
