RS81E560MCN1

The RS81E560MCN1 from Nichicon is a conductive polymer aluminum solid electrolytic capacitor in a radial‑lead can (RS8 series). It delivers 56 µF capacitance at a 25 V rating with low equivalent series resistance (ESR) and low equivalent series inductance (ESL) in a compact, low‑profile package.

Designed for general‑purpose electronic designs, this RoHS‑compliant, mass‑production part offers high ripple current capability and wide operating temperature range for demanding assembly and operating environments.

Key Features

• Capacitance and Voltage — 56 µF nominal capacitance with a 25 V rated voltage and ±20% tolerance at 120 Hz, 20°C.
• Low ESR / ESL — ESR specified at 18 mΩ (100 kHz, 20°C), supporting efficient high‑frequency performance and reduced loss.
• High Ripple Current — Rated ripple current of 350 mA at 120 Hz and 3.5 A at 300 kHz; frequency coefficient reaches 1.00 at 100 kHz and 300 kHz for rated ripple current.
• Robust Temperature and Lifetime — Operating temperature range from −55°C to +105°C with a load life rating of 2000 hours at 105°C.
• Compact Radial Package — Low‑profile radial can with dimensions φ6.3 × 8 mm and 2.5 mm lead spacing for through‑hole assembly.
• Polarized, Leaded Mounting — Radial lead configuration suitable for general‑purpose through‑hole mounting; radial lead type is compatible with lead‑free flow soldering conditions.
• Regulatory Compliance — RoHS compliant (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).

Typical Applications

• General‑purpose electronics — Provides bulk capacitance and low ESR for a wide range of electronic designs that require polarized aluminum polymer capacitors.
• Compact power designs — Low profile (φ6.3 × 8 mm) and high ripple capability make it suitable for space‑constrained power filtering and decoupling in board‑level circuits.
• High‑frequency environments — Low ESR and frequency characteristics (coefficient = 1.00 at 100 kHz/300 kHz) support applications with significant high‑frequency ripple currents.

Unique Advantages

• Low-loss operation: The 18 mΩ ESR at 100 kHz reduces conduction losses and improves efficiency in high‑frequency applications.
• High ripple handling: Rated ripple currents up to 3.5 A at 300 kHz allow reliable performance where elevated AC stress occurs.
• Wide temperature endurance: −55°C to +105°C operation and 2000 hours endurance at 105°C provide predictable lifetime behavior under heat stress.
• Compact through‑hole form factor: φ6.3 × 8 mm radial can with 2.5 mm lead spacing enables easy integration into dense PCB layouts while retaining through‑hole mechanical robustness.
• Manufacturing readiness: RoHS compliance and mass‑production status, plus compatibility with lead‑free flow soldering, simplify assembly and regulatory alignment.
