I. Industry Background: Low Power Consumption Has Become a Mandatory Standard for New Energy Vehicle Design

With the rapid development of the new energy vehicle industry, users' demands for driving range are becoming increasingly strong. Vehicle energy efficiency management has become a core competitive area for major automakers, and low-power design has evolved from a previously advantageous optimization to an essential entry requirement for automotive electronic design.

Many mainstream automakers have set strict limits on static power consumption in their automotive DCDC module design specifications. Currently, power consumption optimization is no longer limited to the main control chip and circuit topology but has extended to every passive component. Especially in DCDC power supply systems, the cumulative loss from the minute power consumption of passive components over time has become a core factor restricting the achievement of overall vehicle energy efficiency standards.

II. Yongming's Precise Strategy: Overcoming the Low-Power Consumption Pain Point of Automotive DC-DC Systems from the Source of Components

Core Problem: Capacitor Leakage Current (LC) is the Main Cause of Hidden Power Loss in Systems

Most cases of excessive power consumption in DC-DC systems are not due to failure of the core control components, but rather to the easily overlooked hidden power loss caused by capacitor leakage current.

Under vehicle standby and light-load operating conditions, multiple electrolytic capacitors operate in parallel. The microampere-level leakage current of a single capacitor continuously accumulates and fluctuates with ambient temperature and operating time, directly increasing the system's static power consumption and making it difficult to stabilize and comply with the vehicle's standby IQ parameters.

Core Technology: Nanoscale Dielectric Aluminum Foil Technology for Precise and Strict Leakage Current Control

Addressing the industry pain point of excessive leakage current in automotive DC-DC systems, Yongming has independently developed the VHU series solid-liquid hybrid aluminum electrolytic capacitors, optimizing leakage current performance from the material level. Utilizing nanoscale dielectric aluminum foil technology, it significantly reduces the initial leakage current value of the capacitor while withstanding the impact of high-temperature reflow soldering processes, completely solving the industry-wide problem of leakage current rebound and performance degradation after traditional capacitor soldering.

Key Featured Model Parameters

Featured Model: VHU 35V 270μF (10×10.5mm)

Performance Testing: Ultra-long lifespan and stable operation + full temperature range adaptability

Based on professionally measured performance curve data:

After 4000 hours of high-temperature load durability testing, the VHU series capacitors maintained stable capacitance retention and ESR (equivalent series resistance), with no leakage current rebound or drift during long-term service;

Covering an ultra-wide temperature range of **-55℃~+135℃**, leakage current can be accurately controlled under both high and low temperature environments;

In high-temperature continuous operation and long-term full-load operation scenarios, the device parameters showed excellent consistency.

Measured data fully confirms that the VHU series solid-liquid hybrid capacitors not only have lower initial power consumption and stable long-term operating performance, but also completely avoid the risk of excessive system power consumption caused by parameter drift.

III. Selection Value Breakdown: Slight Increase in Component Cost, Significantly Reduced Overall System Cost

Many customers hesitate to select a model due to concerns about the cost per unit. However, from the perspective of the entire lifecycle cost of the automotive system, the Yongming VHU series offers better value for money.

Taking a typical automotive DC-DC module as an example, a single device requires 6-8 solid-liquid hybrid capacitors. If any capacitor causes excessive leakage current due to high temperature or standby conditions, leading to system failure, it will directly result in a complete return to the factory for repair, encompassing manual inspection, component replacement, aging tests, logistics and transportation, and even production line downtime losses, with a single loss often amounting to hundreds to thousands of yuan.

The Yongming VHU series utilizes nano-level dielectric aluminum foil technology, resulting in excellent leakage current control and consistent long-term performance. This eliminates the risk of sudden power consumption increases and exceeding performance limits from the source, avoiding the risk of the entire system being returned to the factory.

Compared to ordinary electrolytic capacitors, the VHU only has a slight price premium per unit, increasing the overall component cost by only a few yuan, yet it avoids high costs of return to the factory for repair and production downtime.

Meanwhile, the product has passed 4000 hours of rigorous high-temperature durability and full-temperature range testing, ensuring extremely low quality risk in mass production and safeguarding the company's product delivery reputation and market credibility.

In short: The VHU series is not a high-priced capacitor, but rather a solution that mitigates the dual risks of complete system returns and quality reputation with extremely low incremental component costs.

IV. Solution Implementation Verification: Component Optimization Overcomes the Power Consumption Bottleneck of DCDC Systems

Application Scenarios: In mainstream new energy vehicle 3.0 EV platforms and DMI hybrid DCDC system projects, customers encounter a common problem: the static power consumption of the entire system exceeds 240μA, failing to meet the energy efficiency design specifications of vehicle manufacturers.

Optimization Solution: Without modifying the original circuit architecture and hardware design, the VHU 35V 270μF (10×10.5mm) capacitors are directly replaced and imported, precisely upgrading the capacitors at key nodes in the DCDC circuit.

Implementation Results:

The overall system power consumption decreased significantly, remaining stably controlled within the 240μA compliance threshold;
Power consumption fluctuations were significantly narrowed, resulting in a comprehensive upgrade in the stability of the DCDC system;
Successfully passed the vehicle energy efficiency certification from automakers, fully matching design standards.

Practical case studies fully demonstrate that simply replacing and optimizing key passive components can easily overcome the power consumption bottleneck of automotive DCDC systems, while proactively avoiding after-sales returns due to excessive power consumption.
