• Reliability & Endurance Rated life of 3000 hours at 125°C; designed to meet endurance and shelf-life conditions outlined for the RKS series.
• Thermal Range Wide operating temperature range from −55°C to 125°C for use across harsh thermal environments.
• Package & Assembly φ8 × 10 mm radial can in SMD format; supplied in embossed carrier taping with moisture-proof packing and compatible with lead-free reflow up to 260°C as specified for the series.
• Compliance RoHS-compliant construction and available in mass-production quantities.

Typical Applications

• General-purpose electronics — For surface-mount designs that require a 270 µF, 16 V capacitor with low ESR and measurable ripple capacity.
• Compact power modules — Small φ8 × 10 mm SMD package for space-constrained boards where high capacitance density is needed.
• High-temperature systems — Suitable for designs operating across −55°C to 125°C and requiring long endurance at elevated temperature.

Unique Advantages

• High capacitance in an SMD can: 270 µF nominal in a φ8 × 10 mm package provides substantial bulk capacitance without a large footprint.
• Low ESR for efficient filtering: 25 mΩ ESR at 100 kHz supports effective high-frequency decoupling and reduced loss under AC stress.
• Strong ripple handling: Rated ripple currents of 170 mA (120 Hz) and 1.7 A (300 kHz) enable reliable operation under varying load conditions.
• Long-term thermal endurance: 3000 hours rated life at 125°C and −55°C to 125°C operating range provide predictable behavior in elevated temperature applications.
• Assembly-ready packaging: Embossed carrier taping with moisture-proof packing and series-level reflow compatibility (260°C peak) support automated SMT assembly.
• Regulatory compliance and availability: RoHS-compliant and in mass production for dependable supply.
