RPS1C101MCN1GS

The RPS1C101MCN1GS is a Nichicon RPS‑series conductive polymer aluminum solid electrolytic capacitor in a compact surface‑mount can package. It delivers low ESR and high ripple current capability in a small φ10×7.7 mm footprint for general‑purpose power decoupling and smoothing.

Designed for reliable operation across a wide temperature range (‑55°C to 105°C) with a rated voltage of 16 V and a rated capacitance of 100 µF, this part targets applications that require stable high‑frequency performance and long endurance in an SMD form factor.

Key Features

• Dielectric / Construction — Conductive polymer aluminum solid electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon’s RPS series for stable electrical characteristics.
• Electrical Rating — 100 µF capacitance at 16 V rated voltage with tolerance −20% to +20% (measured at 20°C, 120 Hz).
• Low Loss and Frequency Performance — tanδ (DF) 0.1 at 20°C, 120 Hz; ESR 30 mΩ measured at 20°C/100 kHz for effective high‑frequency decoupling.
• High Ripple Capability — Low‑frequency ripple current 320 mA (120 Hz) and high‑frequency ripple current 3.2 A (300 kHz) to handle varying ripple profiles.
• Leakage and Endurance — Leakage current 320 µA (after 2 minutes at 20°C); rated life/endurance 2000 hours at 105°C under rated voltage.
• Compact SMD Can Package — Case size φ10×7.7 mm with recommended land size L: 1.03 × W: 1.03 cm; available in embossed carrier taping with moisture‑proof packing.
• Reflow Compatibility & Compliance — SMD type compatible with lead‑free reflow soldering conditions (260°C peak) and RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• Power supply decoupling — Low ESR and measured ripple ratings make this capacitor suitable for bulk smoothing and local decoupling on DC‑DC converters and regulator outputs.
• High‑frequency filtering — ESR specified at 100 kHz and high‑frequency ripple current capability support filtering tasks in switching power stages and IMD suppression.
• Embedded systems and modules — Compact φ10×7.7 mm SMD can provides board space savings for general‑purpose use in embedded power rails and module designs.

Unique Advantages

• Measurable low ESR: 30 mΩ at 20°C/100 kHz provides predictable impedance for high‑frequency decoupling and simulation‑driven designs.
• Documented ripple performance: Specified ripple currents at 120 Hz and 300 kHz let you select the component with confidence for both low‑ and high‑frequency ripple environments.
• High temperature endurance: Rated life of 2000 hours at 105°C supports designs that operate continuously at elevated temperatures.
• SMD assembly ready: Embossed carrier taping, moisture‑proof packing, and lead‑free reflow compatibility streamline automated production.
• Clear electrical limits: Specified leakage current (320 µA) and tanδ (0.1 at 120 Hz) give deterministic margins for leakage and loss in power budgets.
