GYC1K330MCQ1GS

The GYC1K330MCQ1GS is a conductive polymer hybrid aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon's GYC series. It is a chip‑type, surface‑mount (radial can – SMD) polarized capacitor designed for high‑reliability applications, particularly in automotive environments where AEC‑Q200 qualification is required.

Key value comes from its low equivalent series resistance (36 mΩ at 100 kHz), high ripple current handling (1.3 A at 100 kHz), and long life at elevated temperature (4000 hours at 135°C), making it suitable where sustained performance under thermal and electrical stress is needed.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 33 µF nominal capacitance with an 80 V rated voltage suitable for higher‑voltage applications.
• Conductive Polymer Hybrid Construction — Hybrid aluminum electrolytic design delivering low ESR and reliable performance in demanding conditions.
• Low ESR — 36 mΩ maximum ESR measured at 100 kHz, reducing losses and improving power‑stage efficiency.
• High Ripple Current — Rated ripple current of 1.3 A at 100 kHz and 195 mA at 120 Hz to support high‑frequency and low‑frequency ripple demands.
• High‑Temperature Endurance — Long life specification of 4000 hours at 135°C; endurance characteristics permit capacitance change within ±30% after the life test.
• Wide Operating Range — Rated for operation from −55°C to +135°C to accommodate harsh thermal environments.
• Qualification & Compliance — AEC‑Q200 qualified and RoHS compliant (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).
• Package & Footprint — Surface‑mount radial can (SMD) package with a compact 1 × 1 cm dimension and polarized orientation; capacitance tolerance ±20%.
• Leakage Current — Specified leakage current after 2 minutes at rated voltage (80 V: not more than 0.05CV μA), supporting controlled self‑discharge characteristics.

Typical Applications

• Automotive power electronics — For use in automotive electronic modules where AEC‑Q200 qualification and high‑temperature endurance are required.
• High‑temperature environments — Suited to systems that must operate across −55°C to +135°C while maintaining capacitor performance over extended periods.
• Compact SMD assemblies — Designed for surface‑mount PCB layouts requiring a small 1 × 1 cm footprint and polarized, high‑voltage capacitance.

Unique Advantages

• High ripple tolerance: 1.3 A at 100 kHz (and 195 mA at 120 Hz) enables reliable handling of both high‑frequency and low‑frequency ripple loads.
• Low loss under AC conditions: 36 mΩ ESR at 100 kHz minimizes heating and power loss in power conversion stages.
• Extended high‑temperature life: Rated 4000 hours at 135°C supports long service life in thermally demanding applications.
• AEC‑Q200 qualified: Provides an added level of assurance for automotive system integration and reliability requirements.
• Compact, SMD radial can package: Small 1 × 1 cm size allows dense board layouts while delivering 33 µF at 80 V.
• Regulatory compliance: RoHS compliant to current directives (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).
