Overview of RNE1C271MCS1 – Conductive Polymer Aluminum Solid Electrolytic Capacitor
The RNE1C271MCS1 from Nichicon is a conductive polymer aluminum solid electrolytic capacitor in a radial‑lead can. It delivers 270 µF capacitance at 16 V with a compact φ6.3 × 10 mm package and 2.5 mm lead spacing for through‑hole assemblies.
Designed for general‑purpose electronics, the device combines low ESR, high rated ripple current and a wide operating temperature range (−55 °C to 105 °C), offering measurable performance for applications that require stable decoupling and filtering in constrained board space.
Key Features
- Capacitance & Voltage — 270 µF rated capacitance with a 16 V rating and ±20% tolerance (measured at 120 Hz, 20 °C).
- Low Loss (tan δ) — tanδ = 0.08 specified at 20 °C, 120 Hz for predictable loss characteristics in AC conditions.
- Low ESR at High Frequency — ESR of 15 mΩ measured at 20 °C / 100 kHz to support high‑frequency performance.
- High Ripple Current Capability — Rated ripple current of 350 mA at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 3.5 A at 300 kHz (high frequency) for demanding ripple environments.
- Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 864 µA (after 2 minutes at 20 °C), allowing designers to budget standby losses.
- Endurance & Temperature Range — Load life rated at 2000 hours at 105 °C and an operating range from −55 °C to 105 °C for thermal robustness.
- Radial Lead, Compact Package — φ6.3 × 10 mm can with 2.5 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm) in radial lead form, available in bulk or bag packing.
- RoHS Compliant & Production Ready — RoHS compliant and listed as mass production status.
Typical Applications
- General Purpose Electronics — Specified for general purpose use where a 270 µF, 16 V conductive polymer capacitor is required.
- High‑Frequency Circuits — Low ESR (15 mΩ at 100 kHz) and a 3.5 A ripple rating at 300 kHz support high‑frequency filtering requirements.
- Thermally Demanding Environments — Rated for operation from −55 °C to 105 °C with a 2000‑hour endurance at 105 °C for sustained elevated‑temperature applications.
- Compact Through‑Hole Designs — Small φ6.3 × 10 mm radial can with 2.5 mm lead spacing for space‑constrained board layouts requiring through‑hole mounting.
Unique Advantages
- Measurable Low ESR — 15 mΩ at 20 °C / 100 kHz provides quantifiable low impedance for designers managing high‑frequency performance.
- Broad Ripple Capability — Specified ripple current values at both 120 Hz and 300 kHz let you size the capacitor for low‑ and high‑frequency ripple conditions.
- Compact Radial Format — φ6.3 × 10 mm can and 2.5 mm lead spacing deliver a small footprint while retaining through‑hole robustness.
- Defined Endurance — 2000 hours at 105 °C provides a clear reliability target for thermal stress planning.
- RoHS Compliant and Production Available — Meets RoHS requirements and is in mass production for predictable supply and compliance tracking.
