Next-Generation KXQ Series Replacing the KXJ Series
Designed for electric vehicles (EV, PHEV) and automotive systems requiring high reliability, the KXQ series sets a new benchmark in power electronics with AEC-Q200–compliant aluminum electrolytic capacitors.
Strong Performance in Automotive Electronics
The KXQ series stands out particularly in the following applications:
On-board charger (OBC) systems
Power Factor Correction (PFC) circuits
Other automotive systems requiring high reliability
Key Features
Long lifetime: 10,000–12,000 hours at 105°C
Wide voltage range: 400–450 Vdc
High capacitance: 47–180 µF
Compact dimensions: ⌀16×20 mm to ⌀18×45 mm
20% smaller footprint compared to the KXJ series
(based on a 450 V, 100 µF comparison)
Advantages over the KXJ Series
Smaller size with higher capacitance
Improved thermal endurance and reliability
Enables system size reduction in applications using multiple capacitors
The KXQ series provides an ideal solution for smoothing PFC outputs and enhancing OBC system performance. By combining high performance, long operational life, and space savings, it delivers significant advantages for modern automotive power electronics.
