Overview of GYC1H680MCQ1GS – Conductive Polymer Hybrid Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor
The GYC1H680MCQ1GS is a conductive polymer hybrid aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a surface-mount radial can (φ8 × 10 mm). It offers 68 µF capacitance at a 50 V rating with low ESR and high ripple-current capability for demanding board‑level power applications.
Designed for high-reliability environments, this part supports operation from -55 °C to 135 °C, carries an AEC‑Q200 rating, and provides long life under elevated-temperature conditions, making it suitable for rugged automotive and high‑temperature electronics.
Key Features
- Capacitance & Voltage — 68 µF nominal capacitance with a 50 V rated voltage and tolerance of -20% to +20%.
- Low ESR — Equivalent series resistance of 30 mΩ measured at 20 °C, 100 kHz to support efficient power delivery and reduced losses.
- High Ripple Current — Low-frequency ripple 187.5 mA (120 Hz) and high-frequency ripple 1.25 A (100 kHz) for effective smoothing in switching power stages.
- High‑Temperature Endurance — Rated lifetime of 4000 hours at 135 °C under specified bias conditions, suitable for prolonged operation in elevated-temperature environments.
- Wide Operating Temperature — Specified for -55 °C to 135 °C, enabling use across harsh thermal environments.
- Dielectric Loss (tan δ) — tan δ = 0.1 at 20 °C, 120 Hz (at 50 V rating) for predictable AC performance.
- Leakage Current — Typical leakage current of 34 µA after rated voltage application (20 °C measurement condition).
- Surface-Mount Radial Can Package — Compact φ8 × 10 mm SMD can with embossed carrier taping for automated placement.
- Reliability & Compliance — AEC‑Q200 qualified and RoHS compliant for regulated environments and automotive design flows.
- Soldering Heat Resistance — Meets soldering heat resistance criteria (30 s on a 250 °C hot plate) as specified in the product datasheet.
Typical Applications
- Automotive Electronics — AEC‑Q200 qualification and a -55 °C to 135 °C operating range make this capacitor suitable for automotive power modules and control units that require long-term high‑temperature reliability.
- Power Supply Filtering — Low ESR and 1.25 A high-frequency ripple capability support smoothing and decoupling in DC‑DC converters and switching regulators.
- High-Temperature Power Electronics — 4000 h endurance at 135 °C enables use in industrial or vehicular systems exposed to sustained elevated temperatures.
Unique Advantages
- Temperature-Qualified Durability — Long endurance at 135 °C (4000 hours) reduces the need for frequent component replacement in hot environments.
- High Ripple and Low Losses — Combination of 1.25 A ripple capability and 30 mΩ ESR minimizes thermal stress and power dissipation on the PCB.
- AEC‑Q200 Qualification — Enables integration into automotive-grade designs that require qualified components for reliability tracking and validation.
- Compact SMD Can — φ8 × 10 mm radial can SMD package balances capacitance and board‑space efficiency for tight layouts.
- Predictable AC Performance — Specified tan δ and leakage current values provide engineers with measurable parameters for AC and leakage budgeting.
- RoHS Compliant — Conforms to environmental directives for use in regulated assemblies.
