GYE1C681MCW1GS

The GYE1C681MCW1GS from Nichicon is a conductive polymer hybrid aluminum electrolytic capacitor engineered for high reliability and high-temperature operation. It delivers 680 µF at 16 V in a compact surface-mount radial can (SMD) package, designed for applications that demand long life, low impedance, and high ripple handling.

Key value propositions include a rated operating range to 125°C with 4000 hours life at that temperature, low equivalent series resistance for high-frequency performance, and AEC-Q200 qualification for applications requiring enhanced reliability.

Key Features

• Dielectric / Construction Conductive polymer hybrid aluminum electrolytic chip type, providing a combination of high capacitance and low impedance.
• Capacitance & Voltage 680 µF nominal capacitance at a rated voltage of 16 V with ±20% tolerance.
• High-Temperature Endurance Long life: 4000 hours at 125°C (endurance specified by manufacturer).
• Low ESR and High Ripple Capability ESR of 20 mΩ at 100 kHz; ripple current ratings of 420 mA at 120 Hz and 2.8 A at 100 kHz.
• Operating Temperature Range Specified for −55°C to +125°C operation.
• Package & Mounting Surface-mount radial can (SMD) package with compact footprint (L: 1 × D: 1 cm) suitable for dense PCB layouts.
• Reliability & Compliance AEC-Q200 qualified and RoHS compliant (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).

Typical Applications

• Automotive systems Designed for electronics requiring AEC-Q200-level reliability and operation up to 125°C.
• High-temperature power modules Suitable where sustained high-temperature endurance and long life at 125°C are required.
• Compact surface-mount power supplies High capacitance and low ESR in a small SMD radial can footprint for space-constrained designs.

Unique Advantages

• High-temperature longevity: 4000 hours rated life at 125°C supports extended durability in elevated-temperature environments.
• Low impedance at high frequency: 20 mΩ ESR (100 kHz) and a 2.8 A ripple rating at 100 kHz enable effective decoupling and smoothing under high-frequency stress.
• High capacitance in a compact SMD package: 680 µF in a 1 × 1 cm footprint reduces board area compared with larger through-hole alternatives.
• AEC-Q200 qualification: Meets AEC-Q200 reliability requirements for use in applications where that qualification is required.
• Regulatory compliance: RoHS compliant to the stated directives, supporting regulatory requirements for restricted substances.
