"Nikkei BP's reported" NICHICON corporation (NICHICON) announced on September 24, 2012, the company developed for the Engine Control Unit (ECU) chip type aluminum electrolytic capacitor, the new product--"CX series", the product can guarantee to last for 2000 hours under 135 “C, and (after the durability test 135 “C 1000 ), It can guarantee the ESR (equivalent series resistance) value in low - 40 “C low temperature. According to introducing, this is the first of the aluminum electrolytic capacitor reaching this performance.

According to introducing, Nichicon, on the basis of previously accumulated technology, through the adoption of new type of diaphragm and the use of new solvent not easy to evaporation as electrolyte, and optimize the combination of parts and materials, has realized to make the product. Although the existing "CZ series" can resist 125 “C high temperature and at low temperature ensure low ESR value, but the new product can achieved higher heat resistance and at low temperature can guarantee stable at a low ESR value. Severe vibration environment for automotive products, such as engine room, the whole series of products can be used for vibration.

New product rated voltage is in the range of 10 to 35 v, and rated electrostatic capacity range of 47-470 f. There are three kinds of size, they are respectively from 6.3 x 10 l (mm), 8 x 10 l (mm) and phi 10 x 10 l (mm). Sample delivery will start from October 2012. Production is scheduled to start in April 2013 in NICHICON Iwate Factory.

In addition, Nichicon will show the new products in the October 2 ~ 6, 2012 on Messe convention and exhibition center "CEATEC JAPAN 2012".

Besides CX series, Nichicon, also announced at the CEATEC JAPAN 2012 it will introduce the following capacitors: high voltage chip shape aluminum electrolytic capacitor in the LR, LV, LT, LH series "; Under the 105 ‘C can guarantee 2000 hours life chip type aluminum electrolytic capacitor, CM series; The rated voltage range is 400 ~ 450 v, about 20% of miniaturization and maximum 50% high capacity of aluminum electrolytic capacitor series "PH"; For AC adapter, about 20% of miniaturization and most about twice as high capacity of the aluminum electrolytic capacitor "VC series"; About 1.7 times longer life, can guarantee 10000 hours life of aluminum electrolytic capacitor "HW series".
