Overview of RKS1C560MCNAHGGS – 56 µF, 16 V Conductive Polymer Aluminum SMD Capacitor
The RKS1C560MCNAHGGS is a surface-mount conductive polymer aluminum solid electrolytic capacitor designed for general-purpose power applications. It delivers 56 µF at 16 V in a compact radial can SMD package (φ8 × 7.7 mm) with low equivalent series resistance and high allowable ripple current.
Engineered for robust thermal and long-life performance, this RoHS-compliant part supports an operating range of −55°C to +125°C and a rated load life of 3000 hours at 125°C, making it suitable for demanding electronic assemblies that require stable capacitance and reliable high-frequency behavior.
Key Features
- Capacitance & Voltage — 56 µF nominal capacitance with a rated voltage of 16 V and capacitance tolerance of −20% to +20%.
- Conductive Polymer Dielectric — Solid electrolyte construction that contributes to low ESR and stable high-frequency performance.
- Low ESR — ESR of 30 mΩ measured at 20°C/100 kHz, supporting reduced losses and improved transient response in power circuits.
- High Ripple Handling — Low-frequency ripple current of 160 mA (120 Hz) and high-frequency ripple current of 1.6 A (300 kHz) for use with switching regulators and power decoupling.
- Extended Temperature & Life — Operating temperature range −55°C to +125°C with a rated life/endurance of 3000 hours at 125°C.
- SMD Radial Can Package — Compact φ8 × 7.7 mm radial can suitable for automated placement; supplied in embossed carrier taping with moisture-proof packing for assembly readiness.
- Leakage & Dissipation — Leakage current specified at 100 µA and tanδ (DF) of 0.12 measured at 20°C, 120 Hz, enabling predictable behavior in DC-bias and AC conditions.
- Manufacturing Compatibility — SMD type compatible with lead-free reflow soldering conditions (260°C peak, per series datasheet guidelines).
Typical Applications
- Power Supply Decoupling — Low ESR and high ripple current capacity make the capacitor suitable for decoupling and smoothing in switching regulators and DC–DC converters.
- High-Frequency Power Modules — Stable performance at 100 kHz and 300 kHz ripple conditions supports use in high-frequency power modules and point-of-load filtering.
- Embedded and Industrial Electronics — Extended temperature range and 3000-hour life at 125°C provide reliability for control boards, industrial controllers, and embedded systems operating in elevated temperatures.
- Surface-Mount Assembly Lines — Embossed carrier taping and moisture-proof packing streamline automated assembly and handling for volume manufacturing.
Unique Advantages
- Low Losses at High Frequency: 30 mΩ ESR at 100 kHz reduces conduction losses and improves efficiency in switching environments.
- High Ripple Endurance: 1.6 A allowable ripple current at 300 kHz supports demanding high-frequency decoupling and reduces thermal stress on the capacitor.
- Wide Temperature & Long Life: −55°C to +125°C rating combined with 3000 hours endurance at 125°C offers predictable long-term performance in hot operating conditions.
- SMD-Friendly Packaging: Radial can SMD form factor with embossed carrier taping and moisture-proof packing simplifies pick-and-place and storage for production lines.
- Predictable Leakage and Dissipation: Specified leakage current (100 µA) and tanδ (0.12 at 20°C/120 Hz) enable deterministic behavior in precision power designs.
- RoHS Compliant: Meets RoHS requirements for lead-free electronics manufacturing and environmental compliance.
