Overview of RDS0G501MCNAHFGS – Conductive Polymer Aluminum Solid Electrolytic Capacitor, 500 µF, 4 V, SMD
The RDS0G501MCNAHFGS is a Nichicon conductive polymer aluminum solid electrolytic capacitor in a surface-mount can package. It delivers 500 µF capacitance at a 4 V rated voltage with low ESR and high ripple-current capability for compact power applications.
Designed for demanding thermal environments, this SMD capacitor offers a rated operating range of −55 °C to 125 °C and a guaranteed load life of 3000 hours at 125 °C, making it suited to circuits that require sustained performance at elevated temperatures and during reflow assembly.
Key Features
- Capacitance & Voltage — 500 µF nominal capacitance with ±20% tolerance at 120 Hz, 20 °C and a 4 V rated voltage.
- Low ESR — Equivalent series resistance of 18 mΩ measured at 100 kHz, supporting efficient power delivery and low dissipation in high-frequency circuits.
- High Ripple Current — Rated ripple current of 105 mA at 120 Hz and 1.05 A at 300 kHz, supporting both low- and high-frequency ripple filtering.
- Thermal Endurance — Load life of 3000 hours at 125 °C under rated voltage, with specified limits for capacitance change, tan δ and ESR after endurance testing.
- Stable Loss Characteristics — Tangent of loss angle (tan δ) of 0.12 measured at 20 °C, 120 Hz for predictable dissipation behavior.
- Leakage Current — Specified leakage current not to exceed 700 µA (or 0.3CV formula where applicable) after 2 minutes at rated voltage.
- Package & Assembly — Surface-mount radial can (φ8 × 6.7 mm case) supplied in embossed carrier tape with moisture-proof packing; compatible with lead-free reflow conditions (260 °C peak correspondence).
- RoHS Compliance — Compliant to the RoHS directive as specified in the product datasheet.
Typical Applications
- Power supply decoupling and smoothing — High capacitance and low ESR make this part suitable for bulk decoupling and smoothing in compact power supplies and regulator outputs.
- DC-DC converter filtering — High-frequency ripple capability (1.05 A at 300 kHz) supports filtering and energy buffering in switching converters.
- High-temperature electronics — With a −55 °C to 125 °C operating range and 3000-hour life at 125 °C, it is appropriate for electronics exposed to elevated ambient temperatures.
Unique Advantages
- Compact high-capacitance SMD — 500 µF in a φ8 × 6.7 mm SMD can reduces board area while providing substantial bulk capacitance.
- High ripple handling — Dual-specified ripple ratings (120 Hz and 300 kHz) ensure reliable performance across both low- and high-frequency power disturbances.
- Low ESR for efficient operation — 18 mΩ ESR at 100 kHz lowers conduction losses and improves thermal performance under ripple stress.
- Extended high-temperature life — 3000 hours at 125 °C supports longer-term reliability in thermally demanding applications.
- Assembly-ready packaging — Embossed carrier taping and moisture-proof packing facilitate automated SMD placement and lead-free reflow processing.
