LAQ2G820MELA25

The LAQ2G820MELA25 is a Nichicon LAQ series aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a snap‑in, radial can package. It provides 82 µF capacitance at a 400 V rating in a compact 25 mm × 25 mm footprint for general‑purpose power electronics.

Designed for applications that require high voltage handling and elevated temperature endurance, this polarized capacitor delivers a combination of high ripple capability, low leakage, and 2000 hours of life at 105°C for reliable long‑term performance.

Key Features

• Electrical Performance: 82 µF nominal capacitance with a 400 V rated voltage and ±20% tolerance, providing stable bulk capacitance for high‑voltage circuits.
• Ripple & Leakage: Rated ripple currents of 580 mA at 120 Hz and 667 mA at 100 kHz, with a specified leakage current of 540 µA.
• Thermal & Endurance: Operating temperature range −25°C to +105°C and endurance of 2000 hours at 105°C under rated conditions (series LAQ specification).
• Package & Mounting: Snap‑in terminal radial can, compact 2.5 cm × 2.5 cm size (L × D) suitable for chassis or PCB mounting and tray packing for mass production.
• Polarized, General‑Purpose Design: Polarized aluminum electrolytic construction for general‑purpose power applications within the specified ratings.
• Environmental Compliance: RoHS compliant for regulated markets and assemblies.

Typical Applications

• High‑voltage power supplies: Bulk smoothing and DC‑link support up to 400 V where 82 µF capacitance and specified ripple handling improve voltage stability.
• Industrial converters and inverters: Use in power conversion stages that require operation to +105°C and long endurance (2000 hours at 105°C).
• OEM assemblies and mass production: Snap‑in mounting and tray packing streamline insertion and assembly for volume manufacturing.

Unique Advantages

• High voltage capability: 400 V rating enables use on elevated DC buses without additional component stacking.
• Compact, serviceable form factor: 25 mm × 25 mm radial snap‑in can fits space‑constrained designs while supporting secure mechanical mounting.
• Designed for elevated temperatures: Rated to +105°C with a 2000‑hour endurance specification for reliable performance in hot operating environments.
• Measured ripple and leakage characteristics: Specified ripple currents (580 mA at 120 Hz, 667 mA at 100 kHz) and 540 µA leakage current support predictable thermal and steady‑state behavior in designs.
• Production ready: Tray packing and mass‑production availability suit high‑volume manufacturing workflows.
• RoHS compliant: Meets environmental requirements for regulated product lines.
