Overview of RKS1E270MCNAHJGS – Surface Mount Conductive Polymer Aluminum Capacitor
The RKS1E270MCNAHJGS is a surface-mount, conductive polymer aluminum solid electrolytic capacitor in Nichicon’s RKS series. It provides 27 µF capacitance at a 25 V rating with low ESR and high allowable ripple current for demanding SMD power and high-frequency applications.
Designed for general-purpose electronic designs that require high capacitance density, robust endurance and wide operating temperature range, this part delivers stability up to 125°C with a rated load life of 3000 hours at 125°C.
Key Features
- Capacitance & Voltage — 27 µF capacitance at a rated voltage of 25 V with tolerance ±20% (–20% to +20%) measured at 120 Hz, 20°C.
- Low ESR — ESR of 27 mΩ measured at 100 kHz, 20°C to support low-loss operation in high-frequency circuits.
- High Ripple Current — Rated ripple current of 160 mA at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 1.6 A at 300 kHz (high frequency), suitable for high-current AC components in SMD layouts.
- Wide Temperature & Long Life — Operating temperature range from –55°C to +125°C and endurance of 3000 hours at 125°C under rated voltage.
- Leakage & Loss Characteristics — Leakage current specified at 100 µA and tan δ (DF) of 0.12 measured at 20°C, 120 Hz.
- SMD Package & Handling — φ8 × 10 mm radial can SMD package available in embossed carrier taping with moisture-proof packing; mass production status.
- RoHS Compliant — Meets RoHS directive requirements as stated in the product information.
Typical Applications
- High-frequency power circuitry — Low ESR and 1.6 A ripple current rating support smoothing and filtering where high-frequency ripple mitigation is required.
- SMD power modules — Compact φ8 × 10 mm package and surface-mount form factor for use on power delivery boards with elevated thermal and ripple demands.
- Industrial electronics — Long endurance at 125°C and wide operating temperature range make it suitable for general-purpose industrial designs requiring sustained high-temperature operation.
Unique Advantages
- High ripple tolerance: 1.6 A high-frequency ripple current rating reduces voltage excursion in demanding AC environments.
- Low loss at high frequency: 27 mΩ ESR at 100 kHz and tan δ of 0.12 lower dissipation and improve efficiency in high-speed circuits.
- Robust thermal endurance: 3000 hours rated life at 125°C provides predictable aging and reliability under prolonged elevated-temperature stress.
- SMD-ready packaging: Embossed carrier taping with moisture-proof packing simplifies automated assembly and inventory handling.
- Clear leakage specification: Leakage current limited to 100 µA for predictable quiescent behavior after voltage application.
