Overview of RKS1C560MCNAHJGS – 56 μF, 16 V Surface-Mount Conductive-Polymer Aluminum Capacitor
The RKS1C560MCNAHJGS is a surface-mount conductive-polymer aluminum electrolytic capacitor in the RKS series. It delivers 56 μF capacitance at a 16 V rating in a compact φ8 × 10 mm SMD can package, designed for general-purpose electronic designs that require low ESR and robust ripple-handling.
Key value propositions include low equivalent series resistance (25 mΩ at 100 kHz), high allowable ripple current (1.7 A at 300 kHz), and extended endurance (3,000 hours at 125°C), making it suitable where reliable power filtering and thermal endurance are required.
Key Features
- Capacitance & Voltage — 56 μF nominal capacitance with a rated voltage of 16 V and tolerance of −20% to +20% at 20°C, 120 Hz.
- Conductive-Polymer Electrolyte — Solid conductive-polymer aluminum construction for stable electrical performance and reduced loss compared with liquid electrolytes.
- Low ESR — Equivalent series resistance of 25 mΩ measured at 20°C and 100 kHz, enabling improved power delivery and reduced dissipation in high-frequency circuits.
- High Ripple Current Capability — Supports 170 mA at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 1.7 A at 300 kHz (high frequency), suitable for demanding ripple and transient environments.
- Thermal & Endurance — Rated operating temperature from −55°C to +125°C with a load life of 3,000 hours at 125°C, providing long-term stability under elevated temperatures.
- Package & Assembly — φ8 × 10 mm radial can SMD (SMD can package), supplied in embossed carrier taping with moisture-proof packing and compatible with lead-free reflow soldering (peak 260°C as per series guidance).
- Leakage & Dissipation — Leakage current specified at 100 μA and tan δ (dissipation factor) of 0.12 measured at 20°C, 120 Hz.
- RoHS Compliant — Meets RoHS requirements for reduced hazardous substances.
Typical Applications
- Power supply filtering — Compact output and bulk filtering for DC-DC converters and regulators where low ESR and high ripple capability reduce voltage ripple and heat.
- Decoupling in high-frequency circuits — Local decoupling for high-speed converters and power stages that benefit from low loss at 100 kHz and above.
- Industrial and embedded electronics — General-purpose energy storage and smoothing in control modules and embedded systems that must operate across −55°C to +125°C.
Unique Advantages
- Measurable low-loss performance: 25 mΩ ESR at 100 kHz provides clear, quantifiable reduction in series resistance for efficient power handling.
- High ripple tolerance: Rated ripple currents of 1.7 A (300 kHz) and 170 mA (120 Hz) support both high-frequency switching environments and low-frequency smoothing.
- Extended high-temperature life: 3,000 hours endurance at 125°C offers predictable long-term behavior in thermally demanding applications.
- Compact SMD can format: φ8 × 10 mm SMD can with embossed carrier taping reduces board footprint while enabling automated assembly and moisture-proof handling.
- Solid polymer reliability: Conductive-polymer electrolyte gives stable electrical characteristics and consistent leakage behavior (100 μA spec), aiding predictable system design.
