RL80J681MCNASQ

The RL80J681MCNASQ from Nichicon is a conductive polymer aluminum solid electrolytic capacitor in the RL8 series, supplied in a radial-lead can (φ8×8 mm). It delivers low ESR and high ripple-current capability in a compact, low-profile package for general-purpose electronic designs.

Key value comes from its combination of ultra low ESR (8 mΩ at 20°C/100 kHz), substantial ripple handling (up to 5.7 A at 300 kHz), and long endurance (5,000 hours at 105°C), making it well suited where high-frequency filtering and robust power decoupling are needed in confined board space.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 680 µF nominal capacitance with ±20% tolerance and a rated voltage of 6.3 V.
• Ultra Low ESR — ESR of 8 mΩ measured at 20°C/100 kHz for reduced loss and improved filtering at high frequencies.
• High Ripple Current — Rated ripple capability of 570 mA at 120 Hz and 5.7 A at 300 kHz, with frequency coefficients provided for intermediate frequencies.
• Low Loss (tan δ) — tanδ = 0.12 at 20°C, 120 Hz for predictable AC performance.
• Long Endurance — Designed for a 5,000-hour life at 105°C under rated voltage conditions (RL8 series load-life specification).
• Compact, Low-Profile Package — φ8×8 mm can with 3.5 mm lead spacing (tolerance ±0.5 mm) for space-constrained layouts; radial lead format suited to through-hole assembly and lead-free flow soldering conditions.
• Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 856 µA after 2 minutes at 20°C, enabling predictable bias behavior in circuits.
• RoHS Compliance & Production Status — RoHS compliant and available in mass-production packaging (Bulk / Bag Packing).

Typical Applications

• General-Purpose Power Filtering — Bulk and high-frequency smoothing in power supplies where compact, low-ESR capacitors improve voltage stability and reduce ripple.
• Decoupling for High-Frequency Circuits — Local decoupling for power rails in space-limited designs, leveraging the low ESR and high ripple capability at kHz–100s kHz ranges.
• Embedded and Consumer Electronics — Energy storage and transient support in small form-factor modules that require long endurance and reliable thermal performance down to −55°C and up to 105°C.

Unique Advantages

• Low-profile, space-efficient design: φ8×8 mm can and 3.5 mm lead spacing support compact board layouts without sacrificing capacitance.
• High-frequency performance: 8 mΩ ESR at 100 kHz and a 5.7 A ripple rating at 300 kHz reduce losses and heat in high-speed power environments.
• Extended thermal endurance: Rated for 5,000 hours at 105°C to support long-term reliability in elevated-temperature applications.
• Predictable AC behavior: Specified tanδ (0.12 at 120 Hz) and leakage current (856 µA) enable straightforward design margins and modeling.
• Manufacturing-ready packaging: Radial lead format compatible with lead-free flow soldering conditions and delivered in bulk/bag packaging for assembly flexibility.
