LGG2C122MELB30

The LGG2C122MELB30 is an aluminum electrolytic capacitor in Nichicon's LGG series featuring a snap-in radial can termination and a compact φ30×30 mm case. It provides 1200 µF capacitance at a 160 V rating with ±20% tolerance and is designed for general-purpose power applications where a smaller case footprint and可靠 endurancen are required.

Engineered for elevated operating temperatures, this part is specified for use from −40°C to +105°C with a 2000 hour endurance at 105°C. Typical performance highlights include low-frequency and high-frequency ripple current capability and controlled leakage current for stable operation in demanding power circuits.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Tolerance — 1200 µF nominal with ±20% tolerance at 120 Hz, 20°C, providing predictable bulk capacitance for designs specified to these values.
• Rated Voltage — 160 V working voltage suitable for circuits requiring this voltage class.
• Ripple Current Performance — 2300 mA at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 3450 mA at 1 kHz (high frequency), enabling effective handling of AC ripple within these measured conditions.
• Leakage Current — Specified leakage of 1310 µA for this part, based on the datasheet leakage-current criteria.
• High-Temperature Endurance — 2000 hours life rating at 105°C when subjected to rated DC bias plus rated ripple current, with defined limits for capacitance change, tan δ, and leakage current after the test.
• Operating Temperature Range — Specified for −40°C to +105°C.
• Compact Snap-In Package — Radial, snap-in can package with φ30×30 mm dimensions; LGG series offers an ultra-smaller-sized, snap-in terminal form factor suited to equipment downsizing.
• RoHS Compliant — Compliant with RoHS directive requirements as stated for the LGG series.
• Production & Packing — Tray packing and indicated mass-production status for consistent supply and board-level handling.

Typical Applications

• General-purpose power circuits — For designs requiring 1200 µF at a 160 V rating with defined ripple and leakage characteristics.
• Equipment downsizing designs — The LGG series' ultra-smaller-sized snap-in can is intended for assemblies where reduced case size is required.
• High-temperature environments — Circuits that must operate within −40°C to +105°C and benefit from a 2000 hour endurance rating at 105°C.
• Board-level radial mounting — Applications that accept snap-in terminal, radial can packages and tray-packed components for assembly.

Unique Advantages

• Compact footprint for 160 V, 1200 µF — Delivers 1200 µF capacitance in a φ30×30 mm snap-in can, supporting smaller board layouts.
• Measured ripple capability at multiple frequencies — Rated ripple current given for both 120 Hz and 1 kHz (2300 mA and 3450 mA respectively), allowing designers to evaluate performance across low and high frequency conditions.
• Temperature-graded endurance — 2000 hour life at 105°C with defined post-test limits for capacitance, tan δ and leakage current, enabling predictable aging behavior under rated stress.
• Clear electrical limits — Specified leakage current and tolerance figures facilitate reliable electrical margining during design and validation.
• Series-level size optimization — LGG family offers one-rank smaller case sizing compared to the LGN series, aiding equipment miniaturization.
• RoHS compliance — Meets RoHS directive requirements as specified for the series.
