Nippon Chemi-Con has now launched a new series of hybrid conductive polymer capacitors. The new “HXC” series is a 125°C hybrid-type capacitor, which is especially resistant against humidity.
At 85% relative humidity (at 85°C and subjected to the rated voltage) the endurance of the HXC capacitors is of 2000 hours. Therefore, under these conditions, the capacitors of the HXC series have an endurance twice as long as the capacitors of the precursor series HXA.
The hybrid technology combines the polymer electrolyte technology with the liquid electrolyte technology. The result is a capacitor type with excellent ESR, temperature characteristics, rated ripple current and life time, while at the same time it has a good rated voltage.
