LAQ2D102MELB45ZB

The LAQ2D102MELB45ZB is a 1000 µF, 200 V aluminum electrolytic capacitor in Nichicon's LAQ snap‑in series. It is a polarized, radial can with snap‑in terminals designed for general‑purpose power applications that require substantial ripple handling and high operating temperature capability.

With rated operation to 105°C, a 2000‑hour endurance at 105°C and measured ripple current ratings up to 2.88 A (10 kHz), this part suits designs needing robust bulk capacitance, effective AC ripple filtering and predictable leakage characteristics.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage: 1 mF (1000 µF) nominal capacitance with a rated voltage of 200 V and ±20% tolerance, specified at 120 Hz, 20°C.
• Temperature Range & Endurance: Rated for operation from -25°C to +105°C with an endurance specification of 2000 hours at 105°C under DC bias plus rated ripple current.
• Ripple Performance: Low‑frequency ripple current 2.4 A at 120 Hz and high‑frequency ripple current 2.88 A at 10 kHz, supporting effective ripple filtering in power circuits.
• Leakage & Stability: Specified leakage current 1.34 mA; datasheet provides leakage current limits and recovery/aging characteristics after storage and voltage treatment.
• Package & Mounting: Radial, snap‑in can (φ30 × 45 mm nominal) for secure board retention and mechanical robustness; supplied in tray packing for production environments.
• Safety Design: Pressure relief vent incorporated for safe operation under abnormal conditions per series safety performance information.

Typical Applications

• Power Supplies: Bulk energy storage and smoothing for DC power rails where 200 V rated capacitance and high ripple handling are required.
• AC Ripple Filtering: Input/output filtering in high‑current or high‑frequency power conversion circuits, leveraging the specified ripple current ratings.
• Industrial Power Electronics: General‑purpose energy buffering and decoupling in industrial equipment designs that operate to 105°C.

Unique Advantages

• High ripple capability: Rated ripple currents up to 2.88 A (10 kHz) allow effective attenuation of AC components in demanding power circuits.
• High‑temperature endurance: 2000 hours at 105°C provides predictable long‑term performance in hot operating environments.
• Snap‑in mounting: Radial snap‑in terminals offer reliable mechanical retention for high‑vibration or production assembly scenarios.
• Compact, serviceable form factor: φ30 × 45 mm can size balances capacitance density with installation footprint and is supplied in tray packing for mass production handling.
• Measured leakage specification: Defined leakage current (1.34 mA) and datasheet recovery criteria support predictable leak and stability expectations over life and after storage.
