LGG2D102MELA40

The LGG2D102MELA40 is an aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a snap-in terminal format from Nichicon's LGG series. It is an ultra-smaller-sized, polarized capacitor designed for general-purpose use and compliant with the RoHS directive.

Designed for compact equipment where space and thermal endurance matter, the part delivers 1 mF capacitance at a 200 V rating with operation to 105°C and documented endurance characteristics for reliable performance in demanding environments.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage: 1 mF rated capacitance at 200 V with a tolerance of -20% to +20% for predictable energy storage and decoupling behavior.
• High-temperature Operation: Rated for operation up to 105°C with an endurance specification of 2000 hours at 105°C under D.C. bias plus rated ripple current.
• Snap-in Mounting: Snap-in terminal, radial can package provides secure mechanical mounting for chassis and power supply assemblies.
• Ripple Current Ratings: Specified ripple current of 2.04 A at 120 Hz and 3.06 A at 100 kHz to support designs with continuous AC ripple and switching noise.
• Operating Range & Polarization: Polarized capacitor with an operating temperature range of -40°C to 105°C suitable for the 160–250 V category conditions in the LGG series.
• Compact Footprint: Physical size L: 4 × D: 2.5 cm to help reduce board space in downsized equipment applications.
• Leakage Current Specified: Series leakage-current specification defined (I ≤ 3√CV μA after 5 minutes at 20°C), enabling predictable standby behavior.
• RoHS Compliant: Compliant to RoHS directives (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).

Typical Applications

• General-purpose equipment: Suited for a wide range of general-purpose circuits requiring bulk capacitance and reliable polarized energy storage.
• Space-constrained designs: Ultra-smaller-sized LGG series construction supports equipment downsizing where board footprint is limited.
• High-temperature environments: Use in systems that require operation and endurance at elevated temperatures up to 105°C.

Unique Advantages

• Compact high-capacitance solution: Delivers 1 mF in a reduced case size to free PCB space without sacrificing stored energy.
• Engineered for thermal endurance: Rated endurance of 2000 hours at 105°C provides measurable life performance for high-temperature applications.
• Practical ripple handling: Explicit ripple current ratings at both 120 Hz and 100 kHz support designs across low- and high-frequency domains.
• Secure snap-in mounting: Snap-in terminals offer robust mechanical retention for chassis-mounted and power-electronics assemblies.
• Predictable electrical leakage: Leakage current specified by established formula (I ≤ 3√CV) for design and power-loss calculations.
• Standards compliance: RoHS compliance supports use in regulated markets and helps meet environmental requirements.
