RKS1E560MCNAHGGS

The RKS1E560MCNAHGGS from Nichicon is a surface-mount conductive-polymer aluminum electrolytic capacitor in the RKS series. It provides 56 µF capacitance at a 25 V rating with a low equivalent series resistance and engineered endurance for elevated-temperature operation.

Designed for SMD assemblies that require low ESR and high allowable ripple current, this part is specified for operation from −55 °C to +125 °C and a rated life of 3000 hours at 125 °C.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 56 µF nominal capacitance with a rated voltage of 25 V and tolerance of −20% to +20%.
• Conductive-Polymer Electrolyte — Solid electrolyte construction for stable electrical characteristics and low loss (tan δ = 0.12 at 20 °C, 120 Hz).
• Low ESR — Equivalent series resistance of 30 mΩ measured at 20 °C, 100 kHz, supporting efficient high-frequency performance.
• High Allowable Ripple Current — Rated ripple current of 160 mA at 120 Hz and 1.6 A at 300 kHz to handle both low- and high-frequency ripple conditions.
• Wide Temperature & Long Life — Operating range −55 °C to +125 °C with an endurance (life) specification of 3000 hours at 125 °C.
• Leakage Current — Maximum leakage current of 100 µA following standard conditioning.
• SMD Can Package — Radial can SMD package, physical size φ8 × 7.7 mm (diameter × length) and recommended land pattern 8.3 × 8.3 mm.
• Reflow Compatibility — SMD type designed for lead-free reflow soldering with peak temperature allowance up to 260 °C per series soldering guidance.
• RoHS Compliant — Meets RoHS directive requirements as specified for the series.

Typical Applications

• High-ripple SMD power stages — Low ESR and a 1.6 A high-frequency ripple rating make this capacitor suitable where sustained ripple currents are present on 25 V rails.
• Elevated-temperature electronics — The −55 °C to +125 °C operating range and 3000-hour life at 125 °C support designs exposed to high ambient temperatures.
• Compact surface-mount assemblies — The φ8 × 7.7 mm SMD can provides a compact profile for space-constrained PCBs requiring reliable bulk or decoupling capacitance.

Unique Advantages

• Measurable high-frequency performance: 30 mΩ ESR at 100 kHz and 1.6 A ripple at 300 kHz translate to improved transient handling and reduced losses in switching applications.
• Thermal endurance: 3000 hours at 125 °C provides predictable aging and lifetime behavior for designs that must operate at elevated temperatures.
• Solid conductive-polymer construction: Delivers stable tan δ (0.12 at 20 °C, 120 Hz) and lower impedance versus many traditional electrolytic options.
• SMD-ready reliability: Compatible with lead-free reflow up to 260 °C and provided in embossed carrier taping for automated assembly.
• Compact, low-profile package: φ8 × 7.7 mm dimensions and a defined land size (8.3 × 8.3 mm) simplify layout and mechanical planning for PCB designs.
