GYC1E151MCQ1GS

The GYC1E151MCQ1GS is a surface-mount conductive polymer hybrid aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon's GYC series. It delivers 150 µF capacitance at a 25 V rating in a compact φ8 × 10 mm can package and is offered in mass-production quantities.

Designed for high-temperature, high-reliability applications, this capacitor combines low ESR (27 mΩ at 100 kHz, 20°C) and strong ripple-current capability (1.6 A at 100 kHz) with a long endurance specification of 4000 hours at 135°C. It is RoHS compliant and AEC-Q200 qualified.

Key Features

• Electrical Performance — 150 µF capacitance with tolerance -20% to +20% and rated voltage of 25 V; tan δ (DF) = 0.14 measured at 20°C, 120 Hz, 25 V.
• Low ESR & High Ripple Capacity — ESR of 27 mΩ at 100 kHz (20°C) and high-frequency ripple current rating of 1.6 A at 100 kHz, plus 240 mA at 120 Hz for low-frequency ripple handling.
• Reliability & Endurance — Life/endurance rating of 4000 hours at 135°C under rated conditions with specified limits on capacitance change, tan δ and ESR.
• Wide Operating Temperature — Specified operation from -55°C to +135°C to support designs exposed to high ambient temperatures.
• Package & Mounting — Surface-mount radial can (chip type) with dimensions φ8 × 10 mm and recommended PCB land size 8.3 × 8.3 mm; supplied in embossed carrier taping for automated placement.
• Polarized Electrolytic — Polar capacitor construction for DC applications; leakage current specified at 37.5 µA.
• Standards & Compliance — AEC-Q200 qualified and RoHS compliant, supporting use in regulated and reliability-focused programs.

Typical Applications

• Automotive electronics — Suitable for automotive power and control modules that require high-temperature endurance and AEC-Q200 qualification.
• Power management — Smoothing and decoupling in DC–DC converters and power rails where low ESR and high ripple current capacity improve stability.
• High-temperature industrial systems — Electronics operating at elevated ambient temperatures that need long life at 135°C.
• High-frequency switching circuits — Supports switching supplies and converters with significant HF ripple due to the low ESR and 100 kHz ripple rating.

Unique Advantages

• High-temperature endurance: 4000-hour life at 135°C provides measurable long-term stability for designs exposed to elevated temperatures.
• Low ESR at HF: 27 mΩ (100 kHz) reduces power loss and improves voltage stability in high-frequency power stages.
• Strong ripple-handling capability: 1.6 A at 100 kHz (HF) and 240 mA at 120 Hz (LF) enable reliable smoothing under both switching and mains-derived ripple.
• AEC-Q200 qualification: Explicit qualification supports use in reliability-driven automotive and industrial programs.
• Assembly-friendly packaging: Embossed carrier taping and compact SMD can form factor simplify automated placement and PCB layout.
• Regulatory compliance: RoHS conformity for designs requiring restricted-substance compliance.
