GYD1E271MCW1GS

The GYD1E271MCW1GS is a conductive polymer hybrid aluminum electrolytic chip capacitor designed for surface-mount applications requiring low impedance, high ripple tolerance and extended life at elevated temperatures. As part of Nichicon's GYD series, this 270 µF, 25 V polarized SMD can is targeted at demanding electronic systems, including automotive designs that require AEC-Q200 qualification and sustained performance up to 150°C.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 270 µF nominal capacitance at a rated voltage of 25 V, with capacitance tolerance of −20% to +20%.
• High-temperature Endurance — Rated for operation from −55°C to +150°C with a specified life of 1000 hours at 150°C under rated bias and ripple conditions.
• Low ESR & High Ripple Capability — Specified ESR of 20 mΩ at 100 kHz (20°C) and ripple current ratings of 270 mA at 120 Hz and 1.8 A at 100 kHz.
• Reliability & Qualification — AEC-Q200 qualified and designed for long life; endurance criteria specify capacitance change within ±30% and ESR/tan δ within 200% of initial values after endurance testing.
• Surface-mount Can Package — Chip-type radial can (SMD) construction for SMD assembly; compact footprint with dimensions L: 1 cm × D: 1 cm and recommended land size 1.03 × 1.03 cm.
• Leakage & Impedance Characteristics — Leakage current specified as not more than 0.01CV (µA) after 2 minutes at 20°C; impedance ratios limited across low-temperature points per series specifications.
• Environmental Compliance — RoHS compliant (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).

Typical Applications

• Automotive Electronics — AEC-Q200 qualification and 150°C endurance make this capacitor suitable for in-vehicle electronics that require stable filtering and decoupling under high thermal stress.
• SMD Power Filtering — Low ESR and high ripple-current capability support bulk and decoupling roles in compact surface-mount power supply and DC–DC converter designs.
• High-temperature Electronics — Designed for systems that operate or are exposed to elevated temperatures, where long-term capacitance stability and endurance at 150°C are required.

Unique Advantages

• Extended high-temperature life: 1000 hours rated life at 150°C provides predictable endurance for elevated-temperature applications.
• Low effective series resistance: 20 mΩ ESR at 100 kHz lowers voltage ripple and improves power-stage stability in high-frequency applications.
• High ripple handling: Rated ripple currents (270 mA at 120 Hz, 1.8 A at 100 kHz) enable reliable performance under continuous AC stress.
• AEC-Q200 qualification: Design and qualification align with automotive-grade reliability requirements for qualifying systems.
• Compact SMD can format: 1 × 1 cm footprint and SMD mounting simplify PCB layout for space-constrained assemblies while retaining aluminum electrolytic energy density.
• Measured leakage control: Leakage current spec of ≤0.01CV (µA) after initial voltage application supports predictable standby and bias behavior.
