RKS1V150MCNAFGGS

The RKS1V150MCNAFGGS from Nichicon is a surface-mount conductive polymer aluminum solid electrolytic capacitor in the RKS series. It combines low ESR and high allowable ripple current with a compact radial SMD can (φ6.3 × 7.7 mm) for board-level power decoupling and filtering.

Designed for demanding thermal environments, this part offers a wide operating range (−55°C to 125°C) and a rated life of 3000 hours at 125°C, making it suitable where long-term high-temperature endurance and stable high-frequency performance are required.

Key Features

• Dielectric / Construction Conductive polymer aluminum solid electrolytic construction for stable electrical performance and low equivalent series resistance.
• Capacitance & Voltage 15 µF rated capacitance with ±20% tolerance at 20°C, rated voltage 35 V.
• Low Loss / High-Frequency Performance tanδ (DF) 0.12 measured at 20°C, 120 Hz and ESR 35 mΩ measured at 20°C, 100 kHz for effective high-frequency decoupling.
• Ripple Current Capability High-frequency ripple current 1.4 A (300 kHz) and low-frequency ripple current 140 mA (120 Hz), supporting demanding AC ripple conditions.
• Leakage & Endurance Leakage current specified at 100 µA and rated load life of 3000 hours at 125°C, with defined endurance limits for capacitance, tanδ and ESR.
• Temperature Range Wide operating temperature span from −55°C to +125°C for high-temperature applications.
• Package & Mounting Surface-mount radial can (φ6.3 × 7.7 mm) with recommended land size 6.6 × 6.6 mm; supplied in embossed carrier tape with moisture-proof packing.
• Compliance RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• High-frequency power stages — Low ESR (35 mΩ at 100 kHz) and 1.4 A ripple capability make this part suitable for board-level decoupling in high-frequency converters and switching regulators.
• High-temperature electronics — Rated for operation to 125°C and validated for 3000 hours at 125°C, supporting applications that require sustained thermal endurance.
• Power filtering and smoothing — 15 µF capacitance with tight loss characteristics (tanδ 0.12 at 120 Hz) provides stable smoothing for power rails subject to AC ripple.
• Compact SMD assemblies — Radial SMD can in a φ6.3 × 7.7 mm footprint fits space-constrained PCBs while maintaining high ripple and reliability specs.

Unique Advantages

• Low ESR at high frequency: 35 mΩ specified at 100 kHz reduces voltage ripple and improves regulator stability in high-frequency circuits.
• High ripple tolerance: Rated ripple currents of 1.4 A (300 kHz) and 140 mA (120 Hz) enable use in power stages handling significant AC stress.
• Extended high-temperature life: 3000 hours at 125°C provides proven endurance for prolonged operation in elevated-temperature environments.
• Compact SMD package with moisture protection: φ6.3 × 7.7 mm radial can delivered in embossed carrier tape and moisture-proof packing for reliable SMT assembly and storage.
• Predictable leakage behavior: Leakage current specified at 100 µA with conditioning/test methods defined for reliable qualification.
