RKS1D151MCNAHJGS

The RKS1D151MCNAHJGS is a surface-mount conductive polymer aluminum solid electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon’s RKS series. It provides 150 µF capacitance at a 20 V rating in a compact φ8 × 10 mm SMD can package optimized for general-purpose electronic designs.

Designed for demanding thermal and ripple environments, this part offers low ESR, high allowable ripple current, and a long rated life of 3000 hours at 125°C, making it suitable for applications that require stable capacitance and reliable power-filtering performance across −55°C to 125°C.

Key Features

• Capacitance & voltage: 150 µF nominal capacitance with a rated voltage of 20 V and tolerance of −20% to +20% for predictable bulk energy storage.
• Conductive polymer construction: Solid electrolyte construction for improved high-frequency performance and stability compared with traditional wet electrolytic designs.
• Low ESR and loss angle: ESR specified at 25 mΩ (20°C, 100 kHz) and tan δ of 0.12 (20°C, 120 Hz) to support efficient power delivery and reduced heating under AC ripple.
• High allowable ripple current: Rated ripple currents of 170 mA at 120 Hz and 1.7 A at 300 kHz for robust handling of both low- and high-frequency ripple loads.
• Wide operating temperature and endurance: Specified for −55°C to +125°C with a load life of 3000 hours at 125°C, ensuring long-term operation in elevated temperature environments.
• Surface-mount can package: Radial can SMD package (φ8 × 10 mm) supplied in embossed carrier taping with moisture-proof packing for automated assembly.
• RoHS compliant: Manufactured to meet RoHS directive requirements.
• Lead-free reflow compatibility: Compatible with lead-free reflow soldering up to a 260°C peak per the product series soldering profile.

Typical Applications

• General-purpose electronics: Use where a 150 µF, 20 V SMD capacitor is required for bulk decoupling or energy storage in electronic assemblies.
• Surface-mount power modules: Suitable for integration into SMD power stages and modules that require a compact can-style capacitor with high ripple capability.
• High-temperature assemblies: Appropriate for designs that operate across −55°C to 125°C and require a capacitor with an extended 3000-hour life at elevated temperature.

Unique Advantages

• High ripple tolerance: 1.7 A ripple current at 300 kHz and 170 mA at 120 Hz reduce stress on the capacitor in AC-loaded circuits, improving reliability in ripple-heavy environments.
• Low ESR for efficient performance: 25 mΩ ESR at 100 kHz minimizes power loss and self-heating, supporting stable operation under high-frequency conditions.
• Long high-temperature life: Rated for 3000 hours at 125°C, offering durability for designs deployed in elevated-temperature locations.
• Compact SMD can format: φ8 × 10 mm package balances high capacitance with a small board footprint and is supplied in embossed carrier tape for pick-and-place assembly.
• Predictable leakage and loss characteristics: Specified leakage current (150 µA) and tan δ (0.12) provide verifiable electrical performance for design validation.
• Manufactured by Nichicon — mass production status: Series-level production availability supports volume procurement and supply continuity.
