RNE1C561MCNASQ

The RNE1C561MCNASQ from Nichicon is a conductive polymer aluminum solid electrolytic capacitor engineered for high-capacitance, low-ESR performance in compact radial-lead form. Designed for general-purpose and high-frequency applications, it delivers strong ripple-handling capability and long life under elevated temperatures.

Key Features

• Capacitance and Voltage — 560 µF rated capacitance at 16 V for substantial bulk storage in a compact package.
• Low ESR — 14 mΩ equivalent series resistance measured at 100 kHz (20°C), supporting efficient high-frequency operation and reduced internal heating.
• High Ripple Current — Rated ripple current of 5 A at 300 kHz and 500 mA at 120 Hz, enabling robust AC ripple handling across a wide frequency range.
• Thermal Endurance — Rated for operation from –55°C to +105°C with a specified lifetime of 5000 hours at 105°C, supporting reliable service in elevated-temperature environments.
• Radial Lead Package — Through-hole radial-can format with 3.5 mm lead spacing and compact dimensions (L: 1.15 × D: 0.8 cm) for straightforward PCB placement and mechanical stability.
• Polarized, General-Purpose — Polarized device with ±20% capacitance tolerance, suitable for general-purpose circuit functions requiring polarized electrolytic capacitance.
• Manufacturing Compatibility — Radial lead type compatible with lead-free flow soldering conditions and compliant with the RoHS directive.

Typical Applications

• High-frequency power filtering — Use for smoothing and decoupling in circuits operating at high switching frequencies where low ESR and high ripple capability are required.
• General-purpose bulk storage — Bulk capacitance for general electronic designs requiring stable capacitance and polarized electrolytic behavior.
• AC ripple suppression — Effective at absorbing ripple currents across a wide frequency range thanks to its low ESR and high rated ripple current.

Unique Advantages

• High ripple tolerance: 5 A at 300 kHz and frequency-aware ripple characteristics allow reliable performance in high-frequency environments.
• Lower thermal loss: 14 mΩ ESR at 100 kHz minimizes I²R losses and helps reduce temperature rise under ripple load.
• Compact through-hole form: Radial-can package with 3.5 mm lead spacing and small footprint simplifies replacement and through-hole board designs.
• Extended high-temperature life: 5000 hours at 105°C supports longer-term reliability in thermally demanding applications.
• Process-ready and compliant: Lead-free flow soldering compatibility and RoHS compliance ease manufacturing and regulatory concerns.
