RKS1K150MCNAFGGS

The RKS1K150MCNAFGGS is a surface-mount conductive polymer aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon's RKS series. It provides 15 µF capacitance at an 80 V rating in a compact φ6.3 × 7.7 mm radial can SMD package intended for general-purpose board-level power applications.

Designed for high allowable ripple current and low ESR, this part targets applications that require reliable decoupling and bulk capacitance across a wide temperature range (−55°C to 125°C) with a 3000 h endurance at 125°C.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 15 µF rated capacitance with an 80 V working voltage and a tolerance of −20% to +20%.
• Low ESR / High-frequency Performance — ESR of 80 mΩ measured at 20°C, 100 kHz; designed for improved AC performance at high frequencies.
• Ripple Current Capability — Low-frequency ripple current 90 mA (120 Hz) and high-frequency ripple current 900 mA (300 kHz), supporting higher AC ripple handling on PCBs.
• Dielectric Loss (tan δ) — tanδ (DF) = 0.12 measured at 20°C, 120 Hz, for predictable loss characteristics in AC conditions.
• Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 100 µA; meets the series leakage and conditioning criteria from the datasheet.
• High-temperature Endurance — Rated life of 3000 hours at 125°C under rated voltage, with defined limits on capacitance change, tanδ, ESR and leakage after endurance test.
• Package & Mounting — Surface-mount radial can (φ6.3 × 7.7 mm), supplied in embossed carrier taping with moisture-proof packing for SMT assembly.
• Wide Operating Range — Operating temperature range from −55°C to +125°C for robust performance across demanding environments.
• RoHS Compliant — Conforms to RoHS requirements as noted in product data.

Typical Applications

• General-purpose power electronics — Board-level bulk or decoupling capacitance where an SMD conductive polymer aluminum capacitor with high ripple capability and low ESR is required.
• High-frequency power stages — Supports applications that require improved AC performance at higher switching frequencies thanks to low ESR and specified high-frequency ripple current.
• High-temperature installations — Suitable for designs that must maintain capacitance and controlled ESR at elevated temperatures up to 125°C with 3000 h rated endurance.

Unique Advantages

• Compact, high-voltage SMD form factor — 15 µF at 80 V in a φ6.3 × 7.7 mm SMD radial can reduces board area for high-voltage capacitor requirements.
• High ripple handling with low ESR — 900 mA high-frequency ripple rating and 80 mΩ ESR at 100 kHz improve filtering efficiency in switching power circuits.
• Wide temperature and long life — −55°C to 125°C operating range and 3000 hour life at 125°C provide durability for thermally demanding designs.
• Predictable loss and leakage characteristics — Specified tanδ (0.12 at 20°C/120 Hz) and 100 µA leakage current support stable performance and easier design margining.
• SMT-ready packaging — Embossed carrier taping with moisture-proof packing supports automated placement and storage handling for production environments.
• RoHS compliance — Meets environmental regulatory requirements for lead-free assemblies.
