LGG2C561MELZ25

The LGG2C561MELZ25 is an aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a snap-in terminal, radial can package designed for general-purpose applications. It delivers 560 µF capacitance at a 160 V rating in an ultra-smaller-sized footprint, making it suited for equipment downsizing where board space and reliable high-temperature performance matter.

Rated for operation from −40°C to +105°C and compliant with the RoHS directive (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863), this part is intended for designers requiring a compact, polarized capacitor with defined endurance and ripple handling characteristics.

Key Features

• Electrical Performance — 560 µF rated capacitance with ±20% tolerance at 120 Hz, 20°C; polarized design for DC bulk and filtering applications.
• Voltage Rating — 160 V rated voltage suitable for medium-voltage power stages and energy storage in general-purpose circuits.
• Thermal and Endurance — Specified operating range of −40°C to +105°C and endurance defined as 2000 hours at 105°C under DC bias plus rated ripple current.
• Ripple and Leakage — Rated ripple current 1.4 A (rms) at 120 Hz and 2.1 A at 100 kHz; typical leakage current listed as 0.89 mA (after 5 minutes at 20°C) with the datasheet limit I ≤ 3√(C·V) µA.
• Loss and Low-Temperature Stability — Specified tangent of loss angle (tan δ) maximum of 0.15 at the rated voltage (measurement frequency 120 Hz, 20°C) and defined impedance ratios for low-temperature performance.
• Compact Snap-in Package — Ultra-smaller-sized LGG series construction in a radial, snap-in can with dimensions approximately φ22 × 25 mm (L: 2.5 cm × D: 2.2 cm) for reduced board area and secure panel mounting.
• Environmental Compliance — Compliant with RoHS directive (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).

Typical Applications

• General-purpose power filtering — Bulk decoupling and smoothing in power supplies where a compact, high-voltage snap-in capacitor is required.
• Equipment downsizing — Applications that benefit from a smaller case size when replacing larger snap-in capacitors.
• High-temperature environments — Circuits that operate up to +105°C and need a capacitor with defined endurance under elevated temperature and ripple stress.

Unique Advantages

• Compact footprint: One rank smaller case size (LGG series) offers reduced board area compared to larger snap-in options, aiding mechanical and layout optimization.
• Defined high-temperature endurance: Endurance rating of 2000 hours at 105°C under DC bias plus rated ripple current provides a predictable life specification for thermal design.
• Measured ripple capacity: Rated ripple current of 1.4 A at 120 Hz (and 2.1 A at 100 kHz) enables reliable handling of AC ripple in power supply rails.
• Leakage characterization: Datasheet leakage specification (I ≤ 3√CV µA) and a listed typical leakage value (0.89 mA for this size) give clear expectations for quiescent current and startup behavior.
• RoHS compliant: Conforms to 2011/65/EU and (EU)2015/863 for use in regulated product designs.
