Ruby Corporation

Rubycon Corporation, founded in 1952, is a global designer, developer, and supplier of capacitors and power management components. The company is based in Nagano, Japan, and operates nine manufacturing sites across its home region and Indonesia. The conglomerate maintains 13 subsidiaries on three continents and employs almost 3,000 people worldwide to serve its partners. The brand offers a wide range of aluminum electrolytic, film, and polymer multilayer capacitors. The firm also produces an assortment of world-class power supplies, LED drivers, lamp ballasts, and battery chargers. Rubycon’s target markets include the automotive, communication, computing, industrial, lighting, medical, and renewable energy industries. After its establishment, the company spent its early years as a successful domestic purveyor of passive electronic components. However, beginning in the 1970s, the firm expanded its presence throughout Asia and into North America. Following several decades of innovative product development and careful management, Rubycon is now a worldwide leader in its field. Today, the manufacturer’s catalog boasts highlights such as its large can type aluminum electrolytic capacitors. The company’s offerings are available in a host of sizes, capacitance tolerances, and voltage ratings to meet OEMs and CMs design challenges. In addition, its commitment to customer satisfaction is evident in its YXH Series passive electronic components. These radial leaded, RoHS compliant parts provide low impedance and boast a load life of 4,000 to 10,000 hours at a maximum operating temperature of 105°C. Despite its rich, decades-spanning legacy, Rubycon still has a strong appetite for iterative improvement. For instance, the firm recently upgraded its PFV line of hybrid polymer capacitors. The AEC-Q200 compliant component is ripple current rated for 4,000 hours at 125°C, which makes them ideal for application in automotive and industrial equipment. Rubycon’s penchant for quality, innovation, and growth ensures it will maintain a place at the peak of the global passive components sector.
