Overview of LGG2C222MELB45 – 2.2 mF Snap-in Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor (160 V)
The LGG2C222MELB45 is a Nichicon LGG series aluminum electrolytic capacitor with a snap-in terminal arrangement designed for general-purpose power applications. It delivers 2200 µF capacitance at a 160 V rated voltage in an ultra-smaller-sized snap-in can (φ30 × 45 mm).
Engineered for demanding thermal and ripple environments, this part offers high ripple current capability, a wide operating temperature range from −40°C to 105°C, and 2000 hours of endurance at 105°C. RoHS compliant and supplied in tray packaging for mass production readiness.
Key Features
- Form Factor – Snap-in Can Snap-in terminal type with a radial, can-style package optimized for secure PCB mounting and high-current connections.
- Capacitance & Tolerance 2.2 mF (2200 µF) nominal capacitance with ±20% tolerance (measured at 120 Hz, 20°C).
- High Rated Voltage 160 V rated voltage suitable for higher-voltage power rails and energy-storage nodes.
- High Ripple Current Capability 2.9 A at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 4.35 A at 100 kHz (high frequency) to support heavy AC ripple and switching workloads.
- Leakage Current Leakage current specified at 1770 µA.
- Thermal Endurance & Operating Range 2000 hours rated life at 105°C; guaranteed operating temperature range of −40°C to +105°C.
- Compact Dimensions φ30 × 45 mm size (L: 4.5 cm × D: 3.0 cm) to support equipment downsizing while retaining capacitance and performance.
- Manufacturing & Compliance Tray-packed for production use and RoHS compliant.
Typical Applications
- Power Supplies Bulk smoothing and filtering on higher-voltage DC rails where 160 V rating and high ripple current capability are required.
- Industrial Power Electronics Energy buffering and ripple management in industrial equipment that operates across −40°C to 105°C and demands long endurance at elevated temperature.
- Commercial Electronics General-purpose decoupling and energy storage in commercial equipment benefiting from the compact φ30 × 45 mm footprint and snap-in mounting.
Unique Advantages
- High Voltage in a Compact Can Provides 160 V rating in an ultra-smaller-sized LGG series case (φ30 × 45 mm), enabling more compact power designs.
- Robust Ripple Handling Dual-spec ripple performance (2.9 A at 120 Hz and 4.35 A at 100 kHz) supports both low- and high-frequency ripple environments common in switching supplies.
- Extended High-Temperature Life 2000-hour endurance at 105°C offers predictable life performance for equipment exposed to sustained elevated temperatures.
- Wide Operating Temperature Range Rated from −40°C to 105°C to accommodate a broad set of environmental conditions without sacrificing performance.
- Production-Ready Packaging Tray packing and mass production status simplify BOM planning and manufacturing logistics.
- Regulatory Compliance RoHS compliance supports use in assemblies that require restricted-substance conformity.
