Overview of LAS2G391MELB40 – Snap-in Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor, 400 V 390 µF
The LAS2G391MELB40 is a snap-in terminal aluminum electrolytic capacitor designed for general-purpose power applications that require compact size and enhanced ripple endurance. It is a smaller-sized, high-voltage (400 V) snap-in can optimized for environments with voltage fluctuation and elevated thermal stress.
Key value propositions include a rated capacitance of 390 µF at 400 V, permissible abnormal voltage handling with improved safety features, and specified endurance under continuous rated ripple at 105°C.
Key Features
- Snap-in Terminal Package Radial, can-style snap-in mounting for secure mechanical and electrical connection in power assemblies.
- High Voltage / High Capacitance 390 µF capacitance rated at 400 V for bulk energy storage and smoothing in high-voltage rails.
- 105°C Endurance Designed to withstand 2000 hours of rated ripple current at 105°C when operated within specified conditions.
- Ripple Current Performance Rated ripple current of 1.55 A at 120 Hz and 1.782 A at 10 kHz; frequency coefficient table applies for other frequencies.
- Wide Operating Temperature Range Specified for operation from -25°C to +105°C, suitable for applications with temperature variation.
- Safety and Abnormal Voltage Handling Improved safety features and a pressure relief vent designed to operate under abnormal voltage conditions without dangerous ignition or dispersion.
- Compact Footprint Smaller case sizes than comparable series, with dimensions approximately L: 4 × D: 3 cm and a snap-in can form factor to save board space.
- RoHS Compliant Compliant with the RoHS directive (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).
Typical Applications
- Industrial Power Supplies Bulk smoothing and filtering where elevated ripple handling and 400 V rating are required.
- Equipment in Voltage-fluctuating Environments Designed for applications that experience unstable mains or transient voltages, thanks to improved safety under abnormal voltage.
- General Purpose Power Electronics Energy storage and decoupling in power conversion systems and control equipment operating up to 105°C.
Unique Advantages
- High-Temperature Endurance: Guaranteed operation for 2000 hours at 105°C under rated ripple conditions, supporting reliability in hot environments.
- Compact High-Voltage Solution: 400 V, 390 µF in a smaller snap-in case reduces board area for high-voltage bulk capacitance.
- Measured Ripple Performance: Specified ripple currents at 120 Hz and 10 kHz with documented frequency coefficients permit predictable thermal and lifetime planning.
- Built-in Safety Features: Pressure relief vent and testing for abnormal voltage scenarios reduce the risk of hazardous failures under overvoltage conditions.
- RoHS Compliance: Facilitates use in designs requiring restriction of hazardous substances.
