RKS1C151MCNAHFGS

The RKS1C151MCNAHFGS from Nichicon is a surface-mount conductive polymer aluminum solid electrolytic capacitor in the RKS series, offering 150 µF capacitance at a 16 V rating. It is designed for general-purpose electronics requiring high capacitance in a compact radial can SMD package (φ8 × 6.7 mm).

Key value comes from a combination of low ESR, high allowable ripple current, wide temperature range and long load life: the part delivers low-loss performance at high frequency and is rated for 3000 hours at 125°C, making it suitable for demanding power and decoupling roles in compact assemblies.

Key Features

• Core Technology  Conductive polymer aluminum solid electrolytic construction for stable capacitance and enhanced ripple handling compared to traditional electrolytic types.
• Capacitance & Tolerance  150 µF nominal capacitance with ±20% tolerance at 120 Hz, 20°C.
• Voltage Rating  Rated for 16 V operation.
• Low Loss / High Frequency Performance  tanδ = 0.12 (20°C, 120 Hz) and ESR = 30 mΩ measured at 20°C / 100 kHz, supporting low-loss operation in high-frequency circuits.
• High Ripple Current Capability  Low-frequency ripple current 160 mA (120 Hz) and high-frequency ripple current 1.6 A (300 kHz) for smoothing and decoupling under dynamic loads.
• Reliability & Endurance  Load life rated 3000 hours at 125°C; leakage current specified at 120 µA with conditioning requirements described in the datasheet.
• Thermal Range & Solder Robustness  Operating from −55°C to 125°C and compatible with lead‑free reflow soldering peak temperatures up to 260°C as specified for SMD assembly.
• Package & Handling  Radial, can-style SMD: φ8 × 6.7 mm. Supplied in embossed carrier taping with moisture-proof packing for automated assembly. RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• Power supply filtering and decoupling  Low ESR (30 mΩ at 100 kHz) and high HF ripple current (1.6 A) make this capacitor well suited for bulk smoothing and decoupling in compact power modules and DC–DC converters.
• High-frequency power circuits  Conductive polymer construction and low loss (tanδ = 0.12) support use in high-frequency switching and power regulation circuits.
• General-purpose electronic assemblies  Compact φ8 × 6.7 mm SMD can and embossed carrier tape packaging enable integration into space-constrained PCBs across industrial and consumer equipment.

Unique Advantages

• High ripple tolerance: Allows reliable smoothing in high-frequency environments thanks to 1.6 A HF ripple current rating and low ESR.
• Extended high-temperature life: 3000-hour endurance at 125°C provides predictable long-term performance in elevated-temperature applications.
• Small SMD can package: φ8 × 6.7 mm form factor combines substantial capacitance with a footprint and profile suitable for automated surface-mount assembly.
• Reflow-capable: Designed for lead-free reflow processes with peak solder temperatures up to 260°C per the datasheet soldering profile.
• Manufacturer pedigree: Part of Nichicon’s RKS series, providing specification traceability and datasheet-backed performance limits for engineering integration.
