RKS1K100MCNAFGGS

The RKS1K100MCNAFGGS is a surface-mount conductive‑polymer aluminum solid electrolytic capacitor in Nichicon's RKS series. It delivers 10 µF capacitance at an 80 V rating in a compact φ6.3 × 7.7 mm radial can SMD package designed for general‑purpose power and high‑frequency applications.

Engineered for durability and high ripple tolerance, this part combines low ESR (80 mΩ at 100 kHz) and high allowable ripple currents with a wide operating temperature range of −55 °C to 125 °C and a rated load life of 3000 hours at 125 °C.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage: 10 µF nominal capacitance with a rated voltage of 80 V and tolerance of −20% to +20%, providing stable bulk capacitance for higher‑voltage SMD designs.
• Conductive‑Polymer Electrolyte: Solid polymer construction for improved high‑frequency performance and reduced ESR compared with traditional liquid electrolytes.
• Low ESR & High‑Frequency Performance: ESR specified at 80 mΩ (20 °C, 100 kHz) and high‑frequency ripple current capability (900 mA at 300 kHz), making it suitable for switching regulators and high‑speed power stages.
• Ripple Current Ratings: 90 mA at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 900 mA at 300 kHz (high frequency), enabling effective filtering under both line‑frequency and switching conditions.
• Reliability & Endurance: Rated for 3000 hours at 125 °C, with endurance limits defined for capacitance, tan δ and ESR to support long‑term operation at elevated temperatures.
• Operating Temperature Range: −55 °C to 125 °C for broad environmental tolerance across industrial and embedded applications.
• Leakage & Dissipation: Leakage current specified at 100 µA and tan δ (DF) of 0.12 measured at 20 °C, 120 Hz, supporting predictable power loss and self‑heating behavior.
• Package & Assembly: SMD radial can (φ6.3 × 7.7 mm) supplied in embossed carrier taping with moisture proof packing; compatible with lead‑free reflow soldering profiles up to a 260 °C peak as specified for the series.
• Compliance: RoHS compliant as specified in the product data.

Typical Applications

• Power Supply Decoupling: Bulk and high‑frequency decoupling in switching regulators and DC‑DC converters where low ESR and high ripple capability reduce output voltage ripple.
• High‑Frequency Power Stages: Filtering and energy storage in high‑speed switching circuits that require reliable performance at hundreds of kilohertz.
• Compact SMD Designs: Space‑constrained board layouts that need a high‑voltage SMD capacitor with long life and wide temperature capability.
• General‑Purpose Industrial Electronics: Robust capacitance for control, power conditioning, and auxiliary power circuits across industrial and embedded systems.

Unique Advantages

• High Ripple Tolerance: 900 mA ripple current at 300 kHz and low ESR reduce voltage ripple and thermal stress in switching applications.
• Long High‑Temperature Life: 3000 hours at 125 °C supports higher operational temperatures and extended maintenance intervals.
• Predictable Loss Characteristics: Specified tan δ (0.12 at 20 °C, 120 Hz) and leakage current (100 µA) allow accurate thermal and leakage budgeting in designs.
• Compact, SMD‑Friendly Package: φ6.3 × 7.7 mm radial can SMD simplifies integration into modern PCB layouts while providing high voltage capability.
• Manufacturing‑Ready Packaging: Embossed carrier taping with moisture proof packing supports automated pick‑and‑place and reflow assembly flows.
• RoHS Compliance: Meets regulatory requirements for lead‑free assemblies and global manufacturing standards.
