RKS1C151MCNAFGGS

The RKS1C151MCNAFGGS is a surface‑mount conductive polymer aluminum solid electrolytic capacitor in the Nichicon RKS series. It provides 150 µF capacitance at a rated voltage of 16 V in a compact φ6.3 × 7.7 mm SMD can package.

Designed for general‑purpose electronics, this part delivers low equivalent series resistance (30 mΩ at 100 kHz), high allowable ripple current (1.5 A at 300 kHz), and extended endurance (3000 hours at 125°C), making it suitable for applications that require stable capacitance across wide temperature and frequency ranges.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Tolerance — 150 µF nominal with tolerance of −20% to +20% (measured at 20°C, 120 Hz), providing predictable bulk capacitance for design margins.
• Rated Voltage — 16 V working voltage suitable for many low‑voltage power rails and general‑purpose circuits.
• Low ESR & High Ripple Capability — ESR of 30 mΩ at 100 kHz and a high‑frequency ripple current rating of 1.5 A at 300 kHz (low‑frequency ripple current 150 mA at 120 Hz) for effective high‑frequency smoothing and ripple handling.
• Conductive Polymer Solid Electrolyte — Solid conductive polymer construction as specified in the RKS series, providing stable electrical characteristics and leakage behavior (leakage current specified at 120 µA).
• Wide Temperature & Long Life — Operating range from −55°C to +125°C and rated endurance of 3000 hours at 125°C under rated voltage conditions.
• Surface‑Mount Can Package — Radial, can‑style SMD package sized φ6.3 × 7.7 mm for compact PCB implementations and automated placement; supplied in embossed carrier taping with moisture proof packing.
• Manufacturing & Environmental — SMD type compatible with lead‑free reflow up to a 260°C peak soldering profile (per datasheet reflow condition) and RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• General‑Purpose Electronics — Provides bulk capacitance and low ESR in surface‑mount designs where a 16 V, 150 µF conductive polymer capacitor is required.
• High‑Frequency Power Circuits — Suited to circuits that demand low ESR and high ripple current handling at high frequencies, as indicated by the 30 mΩ ESR and 1.5 A ripple rating at 300 kHz.
• Temperature‑Stress Environments — Appropriate for designs requiring operation across −55°C to +125°C and long endurance (3000 hours at 125°C) under rated voltage.

Unique Advantages

• High Capacitance in a Compact SMD Can: 150 µF in a φ6.3 × 7.7 mm footprint lets designers maintain board area efficiency without sacrificing bulk capacitance.
• Low ESR for Improved Power Integrity: 30 mΩ ESR at 100 kHz reduces voltage ripple and power dissipation in high‑frequency applications.
• Robust Ripple Handling: 1.5 A high‑frequency ripple current rating supports demanding AC conditions at 300 kHz.
• Extended High‑Temperature Endurance: Rated for 3000 hours at 125°C, enabling longer service life in elevated temperature environments.
• Surface‑Mount Assembly Ready: Embossed carrier taping and moisture proof packing support automated placement and standard lead‑free reflow processes to 260°C peak.
• Regulatory Compliance: RoHS compliant construction aligns with contemporary environmental requirements.
