Overview of LGG2C152MELA45 – 1500 µF, 160 V Snap‑in Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor
The LGG2C152MELA45 is a snap‑in terminal aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon’s LGG series. It delivers 1500 µF capacitance at a 160 V rating in a compact φ25 × 45 mm radial snap‑in can.
Designed for general‑purpose applications and equipment downsizing, this capacitor combines high ripple handling, RoHS compliance, and 2000‑hour endurance at 105°C to support reliable operation in commercial and industrial assemblies.
Key Features
- Capacitance & Voltage — 1500 µF nominal capacitance with a 160 V rated voltage and ±20% tolerance at 120 Hz, 20°C.
- Snap‑in Radial Package — Radial, can‑type snap‑in mounting for secure board attachment and straightforward assembly; compact footprint φ25 × 45 mm (L × D: 4.5 × 2.5 cm).
- High Ripple Capability — Rated ripple current of 2.5 A at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 3.75 A at 100 kHz (high frequency) to support demanding AC ripple conditions.
- Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 1460 µA after standard conditioning.
- Thermal Endurance — Rated for operation from −40°C to +105°C with 2000 hours endurance at 105°C under D.C. bias plus rated ripple current.
- RoHS Compliant — Manufactured in compliance with applicable RoHS directives.
- Series Advantages — LGG series is specified as an ultra‑smaller‑sized, 105°C snap‑in family and is one rank smaller in case size than LGN, making it suited for equipment downsizing.
Typical Applications
- General‑purpose equipment — For designers specifying a 1500 µF, 160 V capacitor in general‑purpose power or energy storage roles where a compact snap‑in part is required.
- Compact / downsized assemblies — The LGG series’ reduced case size addresses space-constrained designs that need high capacitance at elevated voltage.
- Snap‑in module assemblies — Radial, can‑type snap‑in mounting simplifies installation in board‑level power modules and chassis assemblies.
Unique Advantages
- High ripple tolerance: Dual ripple specifications (2.5 A at 120 Hz and 3.75 A at 100 kHz) provide quantified performance for both low‑ and high‑frequency environments.
- Compact high‑voltage solution: 1500 µF at 160 V in a φ25 × 45 mm package enables higher energy density per footprint for space‑sensitive designs.
- Elevated temperature endurance: 2000‑hour rated life at 105°C supports long‑term operation in hot operating conditions.
- Series optimization for downsizing: LGG series offers one rank smaller case size than LGN, helping reduce overall equipment volume.
- Production readiness: Tray packing and mass production status support volume procurement and manufacturing workflows.
- Regulatory compliance: RoHS compliance simplifies material conformity requirements for many markets.
