Overview of RKS1D680MCNAHGGS – 68 µF, 20 V Conductive Polymer Aluminum SMD Capacitor
The RKS1D680MCNAHGGS is a surface-mount conductive polymer aluminum solid electrolytic capacitor with 68 µF capacitance and a 20 V rated voltage. It combines low ESR and high allowable ripple current with extended high-temperature endurance to support compact power and filtering designs.
Engineered for applications that demand stable performance across a wide temperature range, this SMD radial-can capacitor delivers a combination of low-loss, high-frequency capability and 3000 hours of load life at 125°C while being supplied in embossed carrier taping and moisture-proof packing for automated assembly.
Key Features
- Capacitance & Voltage — 68 µF nominal capacitance at a rated voltage of 20 V with tolerance −20% to +20%.
- Conductive Polymer Construction — Solid electrolyte polymer design for low loss and stable electrical characteristics.
- Low ESR & High-Frequency Performance — ESR of 30 mΩ measured at 100 kHz (20°C), and tanδ of 0.12 at 20°C, 120 Hz, supporting high-frequency smoothing and decoupling.
- Ripple Current Capability — Low-frequency ripple current 160 mA at 120 Hz and high-frequency ripple current 1.6 A at 300 kHz for demanding power applications.
- High-Temperature Endurance — Rated operating temperature range −55°C to +125°C with a rated lifetime of 3000 hours at 125°C.
- Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 100 µA (after standard conditioning), aiding predictable bias behavior.
- Surface-Mount, Assembly-Ready Package — Radial can SMD package, size φ8 × 7.7 mm (L × D), with surface-mount land size 8.3 × 8.3 mm; supplied in embossed carrier taping and moisture-proof packing for pick-and-place processes.
- Reflow Compatibility — Designed to tolerate lead-free reflow soldering profiles up to a 260°C peak in accordance with the series' soldering heat resistance specifications.
Typical Applications
- Power supply filtering — Bulk and output-stage smoothing for DC‑DC converters where low ESR and high ripple current improve voltage stability.
- Point-of-load decoupling — High-frequency decoupling close to switching regulators and power modules to support transient response.
- Industrial electronics — Power conditioning in equipment that requires operation across a wide temperature range, leveraging the 3000 h endurance at 125°C.
- Communications equipment — Filtering and smoothing in baseband and RF-supporting power rails that benefit from low-loss polymer electrolytes.
Unique Advantages
- Low-loss, high-frequency behavior: 30 mΩ ESR at 100 kHz and tanδ 0.12 (20°C, 120 Hz) reduce dissipation and improve performance in high-speed power circuits.
- High ripple tolerance: 1.6 A ripple current capability at 300 kHz supports demanding switching-regulator and converter designs.
- Extended high-temperature life: 3000 hours at 125°C provides predictable long-term behavior in elevated-temperature environments.
- Compact SMD radial-can: φ8 × 7.7 mm package balances capacitance and board space, supplied in embossed carrier taping for automated assembly.
- Predictable leakage characteristics: Specified leakage current (100 µA) and established conditioning procedure help ensure reliable biasing and startup behavior.
