Overview of RKS1C271MCNAHGGS – 270 µF, 16 V Conductive Polymer SMD Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor

The RKS1C271MCNAHGGS is a surface-mount conductive polymer aluminum electrolytic capacitor designed for general-purpose electronic applications. It delivers 270 µF at 16 V in a compact φ8 × 7.7 mm SMD can, combining low ESR and high allowable ripple current with extended high-temperature endurance.

Engineered for applications that require stable capacitance and reliable performance across a wide temperature range, this part supports demanding power-decoupling and filtering roles in industrial and consumer electronics designs.

Key Features

  • Capacitance & Voltage — 270 µF rated capacitance with a 16 V rated voltage and tolerance of −20% to +20% (measured at 120 Hz, 20°C).
  • Conductive Polymer Construction — Solid conductive polymer electrolyte for stable electrical performance and low equivalent series resistance.
  • Low ESR — ESR of 30 mΩ measured at 100 kHz and 20°C, supporting lower loss and improved transient response 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), enabling effective smoothing in switching and power supply applications.
  • Loss Angle (tan δ) — tan δ of 0.12 measured at 20°C and 120 Hz for predictable dissipation characteristics.
  • Wide Operating Temperature — Rated for −55°C to +125°C, supporting operation in thermally challenging environments.
  • Long Endurance — Load life of 3000 hours at 125°C under rated voltage for extended reliability in high-temperature applications.
  • Compact SMD Can — Package dimensions φ8 × 7.7 mm (L × D) for space-constrained board layouts; polarised for correct circuit integration.
  • Packaging & Production — Supplied in embossed carrier taping with moisture-proof packing and available in mass production quantities.

Typical Applications

  • Power Supply Filtering — Bulk and output smoothing in DC–DC converters and linear regulators where low ESR and high ripple current improve voltage stability.
  • Switching Power Stages — Energy storage and decoupling at switching nodes, leveraging 1.6 A high-frequency ripple capability and low ESR for reduced losses.
  • Industrial Electronics — Filtering and decoupling in control and instrumentation equipment that require operation across −55°C to +125°C and long endurance at elevated temperatures.
  • Consumer and Embedded Systems — General-purpose decoupling and bulk capacitance in compact embedded boards where space is limited and reflow compatibility is required.

Unique Advantages

  • High Temperature Endurance: 3000 hours at 125°C under rated voltage provides longer service life in thermally stressed designs.
  • Low Losses at High Frequency: 30 mΩ ESR at 100 kHz and 1.6 A ripple capability reduce heating and improve efficiency in switching applications.
  • Stable Performance Metrics: Specified tan δ (0.12 at 20°C, 120 Hz) and controlled leakage current (216 µA) give predictable behavior for power integrity analysis.
  • Compact SMD Form Factor: φ8 × 7.7 mm can offers a high capacitance-to-footprint ratio for space-constrained PCBs while supporting surface-mount assembly processes.
  • Production-Ready Packaging: Embossed carrier taping with moisture-proof packing supports automated assembly and inventory handling.
