Overview of LAS2G101MELZ25 – Snap-in 400 V, 100 µF Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor
The LAS2G101MELZ25 is a snap-in terminal aluminum electrolytic capacitor designed for general-purpose electronic equipment that requires a compact high-voltage capacitor with robust ripple endurance. It combines a 100 µF capacitance with a 400 V rated voltage in a radial, snap-in can (22 mm diameter × 25 mm length), making it suitable for applications exposed to supply fluctuations and elevated operating temperatures.
Key value is delivered through long-duration ripple performance at high temperature, improved safety features for abnormal over-voltage conditions, and compliance with RoHS directives.
Key Features
- Capacitance & Voltage — 100 µF capacitance at a 400 V rated voltage, with ±20% tolerance for general-purpose designs.
- Snap-in Radial Package — Snap-in terminal, radial can package for secure PCB mounting and straightforward assembly in power assemblies.
- High-temperature Endurance — Endurance specification: can withstand 2000 hours with rated ripple current at 105 °C, suitable for sustained high-stress operation.
- Ripple Current Performance — Rated ripple current of 680 mA at 120 Hz and 782 mA at 10 kHz, with frequency coefficients defined for other frequencies.
- Operating Temperature Range — Rated for −25 °C to +105 °C operation, supporting elevated-temperature system environments.
- Safety Features — Improved safety measures for abnormally excessive voltage and a pressure relief vent designed to operate without flame or dispersion under test conditions.
- Compact Footprint — Smaller case size (22 mm × 25 mm) relative to other series, enabling space-efficient designs where high DC voltage and capacitance are required.
- RoHS Compliant — Meets RoHS directive (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863) for restricted substances.
Typical Applications
- General-purpose electronic equipment — Suitable where a 400 V, 100 µF electrolytic capacitor is required for energy storage and decoupling in standard designs.
- Voltage-fluctuating equipment — Designed for equipment used in areas with supply variation, with improved tolerance for abnormal voltage events and sustained ripple endurance.
- High-ripple DC systems — Appropriate for systems that apply rated ripple current at elevated temperatures for extended periods (endurance tested 2000 hours at 105 °C).
- Space-constrained power assemblies — Compact snap-in can size (22 mm diameter × 25 mm length) for designs requiring reduced case footprint without sacrificing ripple performance.
Unique Advantages
- Long-duration ripple endurance: Certified to withstand 2000 hours of rated ripple current at 105 °C, enabling reliable performance in sustained high-stress conditions.
- Enhanced safety under abnormal voltage: Improved safety features and a pressure relief vent reduce the risk of hazardous failure modes during over-voltage events.
- High ripple capability at multiple frequencies: Specified ripple currents of 680 mA (120 Hz) and 782 mA (10 kHz) with frequency coefficients provided for other frequencies.
- Compact snap-in form factor: Smaller case size allows designers to save PCB space while maintaining high-voltage capacitance and ripple handling.
- Wide operating temperature range: Rated for −25 °C to +105 °C, supporting operation in elevated-temperature environments.
- Regulatory compliance: RoHS-compliant construction for restricted-substance requirements.
