RKS1C330MCNAHFGS

The RKS1C330MCNAHFGS from Nichicon is a surface-mount conductive polymer aluminum solid electrolytic capacitor in the RKS series, rated 33 µF at 16 V. Designed for general-purpose power decoupling and filtering, it delivers low ESR and high allowable ripple current across a wide temperature range.

Key value propositions include a low equivalent series resistance (30 mΩ at 100 kHz), robust high-frequency ripple handling (1.6 A @ 300 kHz), and extended load-life endurance (3000 hours at 125°C), making it suitable for compact, high-reliability electronic designs.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 33 µF nominal capacitance with a rated voltage of 16 V and tolerance ±20%.
• Conductive Polymer Electrolyte — Solid conductive polymer construction for stable performance and improved ESR compared with traditional wet electrolytes.
• Low ESR — ESR of 30 mΩ measured at 20°C/100 kHz, supporting effective high-frequency decoupling and reduced power loss.
• High-Frequency Ripple Handling — High-frequency ripple current rating of 1.6 A at 300 kHz and low-frequency ripple current of 160 mA at 120 Hz for robust ripple tolerance.
• Leakage Current — Specified leakage current up to 100 µA after standard conditioning.
• Thermal Endurance — Rated for operation from −55°C to 125°C with a rated load-life of 3000 hours at 125°C.
• SMD Package & Mounting — Radial, can-style SMD package (φ8 × 6.7 mm) supplied in embossed carrier taping with moisture-proof packing for automated assembly.
• RoHS Compliant — Conforms to RoHS directives as indicated in the product documentation.

Typical Applications

• High-frequency power circuits — Provides effective decoupling and ripple suppression in switching regulators and DC–DC converter outputs where low ESR and high ripple tolerance are required.
• Local supply filtering — Ideal for board-level power conditioning near ICs to stabilize supply rails and reduce noise in compact designs.
• Embedded and industrial electronics — Suitable for general-purpose filtering in embedded systems and industrial controls that demand wide operating temperature and long life at elevated temperature.

Unique Advantages

• High ripple capability: 1.6 A high-frequency ripple rating lets designers handle demanding switching currents without oversized capacitors.
• Low power loss: 30 mΩ ESR at 100 kHz reduces dissipation and improves efficiency in power stages.
• Extended high-temperature life: 3000-hour endurance at 125°C supports longer field life in thermally stressed environments.
• Compact SMD form factor: φ8 × 6.7 mm package balances capacitance and footprint for space-constrained layouts.
• Manufacturing-ready packaging: Embossed carrier taping and moisture-proof packing streamline automated placement and ESD-safe handling.
