RNE1C471MCS6

The RNE1C471MCS6 is a Nichicon RNE series conductive polymer aluminum solid electrolytic capacitor offering high capacitance in a compact radial-can package. It is a polarized, general-purpose component designed for applications that require substantial capacitance combined with low equivalent series resistance (ESR) and high ripple-handling capability.

Key value propositions include a wide operating temperature range (−55°C to 105°C), long load-life options (2000 / 5000 hours at 105°C), and lead-free flow soldering condition correspondence with RoHS compliance for easier integration into modern assemblies.

Key Features

• High Capacitance — 470 µF nominal capacitance with a tolerance of −20% to +20% (measured at 120 Hz, 20°C).
• Rated Voltage — 16 V working voltage suitable for a range of low-voltage electronic circuits.
• Low ESR — 15 mΩ equivalent series resistance measured at 100 kHz (20°C), helping reduce losses and improve transient response.
• High Ripple Current Capability — Rated ripple current of 3.5 A at 300 kHz and 350 mA at 120 Hz; frequency coefficient for ripple current is 1.00 at 100 kHz and 300 kHz, enabling reliable AC loading across a broad frequency range.
• Robust Thermal and Lifetime Performance — Operates from −55°C to 105°C with load-life endurance specified at 2000 / 5000 hours at 105°C.
• Radial Lead Package — Compact radial can package with lead spacing of 2.5 mm and physical size L: 1 × D: 0.63 cm, optimized for through-hole mounting and board-level flow soldering processes.
• Polarized, Solid Electrolyte Construction — Conductive polymer aluminum solid electrolyte provides stable electrical characteristics and improved reliability compared with some wet electrolytic designs.
• Regulatory Compliance — Conforms to RoHS directive (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863) and supports lead-free flow soldering condition correspondence.

Typical Applications

• General Purpose Electronic Circuits — Provides bulk capacitance and energy storage where a polarized radial capacitor is appropriate.
• Power Filtering and Decoupling — Low ESR (15 mΩ at 100 kHz) and high ripple current capability help stabilize low-voltage power rails and smooth switching noise.
• Embedded and Industrial Electronics — Wide operating temperature range (−55°C to 105°C) and long load-life options support sustained performance in embedded and industrial designs.

Unique Advantages

• High energy density in a compact package: 470 µF in a 1 × 0.63 cm footprint enables significant bulk capacitance without excessive board area.
• Low ESR for improved efficiency: 15 mΩ ESR at 100 kHz reduces I²R losses and improves transient response in power circuits.
• Strong ripple-handling capability: Rated ripple current up to 3.5 A at 300 kHz supports demanding AC loading conditions encountered in switching power applications.
• Durable thermal and lifetime characteristics: −55°C to 105°C operating range and 2000 / 5000-hour load-life options at 105°C provide predictable long-term behavior under elevated temperature stress.
• Assembly-ready radial form factor: Radial lead spacing (2.5 mm) and lead-free flow soldering correspondence simplify integration into through-hole assemblies.
• Compliance-ready: RoHS-compliant construction aligns with current environmental requirements for electronics manufacturing.
