RL80E102MCNASQ

The RL80E102MCNASQ is a Nichicon RL8 series conductive polymer aluminum solid electrolytic capacitor designed for compact through-hole applications. It delivers low ESR and high ripple-current capability in a low-profile φ8×8 mm package, suited for general-purpose power filtering and decoupling in electronic systems.

Key value propositions include ultra-low ESR (6 mΩ at 20°C/100 kHz), high-frequency ripple handling (up to 6.1 A at 300 kHz), and robust endurance (5,000 hours at 105°C), providing reliable performance in compact radial-lead designs.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage: 1,000 µF (1 mF) rated at 2.5 V for bulk energy storage and smoothing in low-voltage power rails.
• Low ESR: 6 mΩ measured at 20°C/100 kHz, enabling efficient high-frequency performance and reduced power loss.
• High Ripple Current: 610 mA at 120 Hz and 6.1 A at 300 kHz, supporting demanding ripple environments across low and high frequencies.
• Loss Tangent: tanδ = 0.12 at 20°C/120 Hz, for predictable AC behavior in filtering applications.
• Endurance & Temperature Range: Rated for 5,000 hours at 105°C with an operating range of −55°C to 105°C for long-term thermal reliability.
• Package & Mounting: Radial lead, can package φ8×8 mm (D×L) with 3.5 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm tolerance), available in bulk or bag packing for through-hole assembly workflows.
• Leakage Current: 625 µA (measured at 20°C after 2 minutes), useful for estimating standby and bias losses.
• Regulatory: RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• General-purpose power filtering: Low ESR and high ripple-current capability make this capacitor suitable for filtering and smoothing on low-voltage power rails.
• Decoupling for high-frequency circuits: The 6 mΩ ESR and strong high-frequency ripple rating support transient suppression and decoupling in compact designs.
• Through-hole assemblies and prototypes: Radial lead format with compact φ8×8 mm can footprint into space-constrained boards while remaining compatible with manual or wave solder processes.

Unique Advantages

• Compact, low-profile package: φ8×8 mm size delivers high capacitance in a small through-hole can for space-constrained assemblies.
• High-frequency capability: Rated ripple current of 6.1 A at 300 kHz and ESR specified at 100 kHz enable effective performance in high-frequency power stages.
• Robust thermal endurance: 5,000-hour rating at 105°C supports sustained operation in elevated-temperature environments.
• Predictable leakage and loss characteristics: Specified leakage (625 µA) and tanδ (0.12 at 120 Hz) allow straightforward thermal and performance budgeting in designs.
• Assembly-friendly lead form: Radial lead spacing 3.5 mm (±0.5 mm) and bulk/bag packaging options simplify procurement and PCB assembly integration.
• Regulatory compliance: RoHS compliance supports environmental and regulatory requirements.
