Overview of RKS1E680MCNAHFGS – Surface‑Mount Conductive Polymer Aluminum Capacitor, 68 µF / 25 V
The RKS1E680MCNAHFGS is a surface‑mount conductive polymer aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a compact φ8 × 6.7 mm can‑SMD package. It provides 68 µF capacitance at a 25 V rating with low equivalent series resistance (ESR) and high allowable ripple current, optimized for high-frequency decoupling and power‑stage smoothing in compact electronic designs.
Designed for demanding thermal and lifetime requirements, this component offers operation from −55 °C to 125 °C and a load life of 3000 hours at 125 °C, delivered in embossed carrier taping with moisture‑proof packing for automated assembly.
Key Features
- Capacitance & Voltage: 68 µF nominal capacitance with a rated voltage of 25 V and capacitance tolerance of −20% to +20%.
- Low Loss / Low ESR: Tangent of loss angle (tan δ) 0.12 (measured at 20 °C, 120 Hz) and ESR of 30 mΩ measured at 20 °C / 100 kHz, supporting efficient high‑frequency performance.
- High Ripple Current Capability: Low‑frequency ripple current 160 mA (120 Hz) and high‑frequency ripple current 1.6 A (300 kHz) for robust filtering in switching power stages.
- Leakage Current: Specified leakage current up to 100 µA after standard conditioning.
- Extended High‑Temperature Life: Load life rated at 3000 hours at 125 °C, providing long-term stability under elevated temperatures.
- Wide Operating Temperature: Rated for −55 °C to 125 °C to accommodate a broad range of thermal environments.
- SMD Can Package & Assembly Ready: φ8 × 6.7 mm (D × L) radial can in an SMD form factor, supplied in embossed carrier taping with moisture‑proof packing and compatible with lead‑free reflow profiles.
- RoHS Compliant: Conforms to RoHS requirements.
Typical Applications
- Power supply decoupling: Low ESR and high ripple current support effective decoupling at converter outputs and intermediate rails.
- DC‑DC converter smoothing: High‑frequency ripple handling (1.6 A at 300 kHz) makes this capacitor suitable for output filtering in compact buck and boost stages.
- Point‑of‑load (PoL) capacitors: Compact φ8 × 6.7 mm SMD can for board space‑constrained PoL applications requiring stable capacitance over temperature.
Unique Advantages
- Reliable high‑temperature endurance: 3000 hours at 125 °C ensures sustained performance in elevated temperature environments and extended product life.
- High ripple handling with low ESR: 30 mΩ ESR and specified ripple currents reduce voltage ripple and heat generation at high switching frequencies.
- Compact SMD can footprint: φ8 × 6.7 mm package and recommended land size (8.3 × 8.3 mm) enable high‑density PCB layouts while maintaining performance.
- Assembly‑friendly packaging: Supplied in embossed carrier tape with moisture‑proof packing for reliable automated placement and reflow processing.
- Measurable, verifiable specs: Key electrical parameters (tan δ, ESR, leakage, ripple currents) are specified with measurement conditions for design validation.
