GYC1E221MCQ1GS

The GYC1E221MCQ1GS is a conductive polymer hybrid aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a compact surface-mount can (φ8 × 10 mm). It delivers 220 µF at 25 V with low ESR and rated ripple handling for electronics exposed to elevated temperatures.

Designed for high-reliability applications, this Nichicon GYC series part is specified for operation from −55 °C to 135 °C and meets AEC‑Q200 qualification; it offers a long endurance rating of 4000 hours at 135 °C and RoHS compliance.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 220 µF nominal capacitance with a 25 V rated voltage and ±20% tolerance at 120 Hz, 20 °C.
• Low ESR & High-Frequency Performance — ESR of 27 mΩ measured at 100 kHz, 20 °C for improved high-frequency decoupling and stability.
• Ripple Current Capability — Low-frequency ripple current 240 mA (120 Hz) and high-frequency ripple current 1.6 A (100 kHz) for demanding ripple environments.
• High-Temperature Endurance — Endurance specified at 4000 hours at 135 °C under rated conditions, with defined limits for capacitance, tan δ and ESR after test.
• Wide Operating Range — Rated for −55 °C to 135 °C operation to support elevated-temperature designs.
• Surface-Mount Package — Radial can SMD package, dimensions φ8 × 10 mm with embossed carrier taping for automated pick-and-place.
• Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 55 µA after 2 minutes at 20 °C (per product data reference).
• Quality & Compliance — AEC‑Q200 rated and RoHS compliant, targeting high-reliability applications.

Typical Applications

• Automotive electronics — Suitable for in-vehicle applications where AEC‑Q200 qualification and operation up to 135 °C are required.
• High-temperature power modules — Provides stable capacitance and low ESR for boards exposed to elevated ambient temperatures.
• Surface-mount assemblies — Embossed carrier taping and compact φ8 × 10 mm can package support automated SMD assembly flows.

Unique Advantages

• High-temperature reliability: 4000-hour endurance at 135 °C gives designers a defined long-life option for hot environments.
• Low ESR for HF stability: 27 mΩ (100 kHz) ESR reduces voltage ripple at high switching frequencies and improves decoupling performance.
• Robust ripple handling: 1.6 A high-frequency ripple current rating supports demanding power-conditioning tasks.
• AEC‑Q200 qualification: Enables use in automotive-grade designs that require standardized reliability assessments.
• Compact SMD form factor: φ8 × 10 mm can with embossed taping minimizes board area while supporting automated placement.
• Regulatory compliance: RoHS compliant for global environmental requirements.
