New Hybrid Polymer Series from Rubycon – High Ripple Current

Rubycon’s new PSV series combines a long lifespan at high temperatures with stable ESR and high ripple currents. Japanese capacitor specialist Rubycon guarantees a lifespan of 3,000 hours at an ambient temperature of 135°C for the PSV series, and the low ESR remains largely stable across the entire temperature range. The ripple currents are particularly noteworthy. For instance, a PSV with 35V and a capacitance of 270µF allows for a current of up to 3,000mA, while 63V and 56µF enable 2,100mA. Case sizes of 8×10.5 and 10×10.5 are available.

Rubycon’s Hybrid Polymer Technology utilizes not only conductive polymer but also a special gel—called Functional Liquid—which enables improved self-healing of the anode foil and higher capacitances. The process of adding this gel is referred to as hybridization. The absence of traditional electrolytes also prevents them from drying out, which leads to improved lifespan characteristics. Naturally, the PSV series meets all requirements according to AEC-Q200.
