LAR2E102MELC35

The LAR2E102MELC35 is a snap-in terminal aluminum electrolytic capacitor designed for general-purpose electronic assemblies. It delivers 1000 µF capacitance at a 250 V rating in a compact φ35 × 35 mm can with radial snap-in mounting.

Engineered for elevated-temperature endurance, this part withstands rated ripple current for 2000 hours at 105°C and incorporates design features that reduce short incidence under overvoltage conditions (rated voltage × 1.5). It is RoHS compliant.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 1000 µF rated capacitance at 250 V for bulk filtering and energy storage requirements.
• Temperature & Endurance — Operating temperature range −40°C to +105°C with endurance rated for 2000 hours at 105°C under D.C. bias plus rated ripple current.
• High Ripple Capability — Rated ripple current of 2.2 A at 120 Hz and 3.3 A at 50 kHz, with frequency coefficient behavior defined in the datasheet.
• Safety Performance — Reduced short incidence when overvoltage (rated voltage × 1.5, limited current = 1 A) is applied; when tested more than 60% of capacitors pass the specified condition (pressure relief vent operation or no opening for 10 minutes without short or flame).
• Leakage Current Specification — Leakage current after 5 minutes at 20°C follows I ≤ 3√(C·V) µA (C in µF, V in V) as defined in the datasheet.
• Mechanical & Mounting — Radial, can-type snap-in terminals for robust PCB retention and simplified assembly; nominal dimensions φ35 × 35 mm.
• Quality Characteristics — Capacitance tolerance ±20%; tan δ max 0.15 for 200–400 V range; shelf life and stability characteristics documented in the datasheet.
• Environmental Compliance — Compliant with the RoHS directive (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).

Typical Applications

• Power supply filtering — Bulk smoothing and decoupling in AC/DC and DC/DC power supplies where a high-voltage 1000 µF capacitor is required.
• Bulk energy storage — Energy buffering in electronic assemblies that require higher-voltage bulk capacitance in a snap-in package.
• Industrial power modules — Use in general-purpose industrial power and control equipment where elevated-temperature endurance is needed.

Unique Advantages

• High-temperature endurance: Rated for 2000 hours at 105°C under rated ripple current, helping maintain capacitance and leakage performance in hot operating environments.
• Overvoltage resilience: Design reduces short incidence when exposed to 1.5× rated voltage under limited-current conditions, supporting safer behavior during transient events.
• Strong ripple performance: Clear ripple current ratings at 120 Hz and 50 kHz with frequency coefficients provided for design accuracy across frequencies.
• Robust mechanical mounting: Snap-in radial can simplifies PCB retention and mechanical assembly for through-hole designs.
• Standards-driven specifications: Leakage current, tan δ, endurance and shelf-life behaviors are specified and measurable per the datasheet, supporting reliable BOM selection.
• RoHS compliant: Meets RoHS directive requirements for restricted substances.
