LGG2E102MELB40

The LGG2E102MELB40 is a Nichicon LGG series snap-in aluminum electrolytic capacitor offering 1000 µF capacitance at a 250 V rating. Designed as an ultra-smaller-sized, snap-in terminal device, it targets general-purpose power applications where compact size, high ripple handling and robust endurance are required.

With a rated operating range from –40°C to +105°C and a 2000-hour endurance at 105°C under rated DC bias plus ripple, this part is intended for equipment downsizing and reliable power filtering in compact systems.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 1000 µF nominal capacitance with ±20% tolerance at 120 Hz, rated for 250 V.
• Snap-in Radial Package — Radial, can-type snap-in terminals for secure PCB retention and simplified assembly.
• High Ripple Current — Designed for demanding ripple conditions: 2,200 mA at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 3,300 mA at 100 kHz (high frequency).
• Endurance at Elevated Temperature — 2000 hours rated life at 105°C when subjected to rated DC bias plus rated ripple current.
• Wide Operating Temperature — Specified for −40°C to +105°C operation to accommodate varied thermal environments.
• Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 1500 µA (after initial application conditions).
• Compact Dimensions — φ30 × 40 mm body size to support equipment downsizing; one rank smaller case sizing compared with the LGN series.
• RoHS Compliant — Conforms to RoHS directive requirements for environmental compliance.
• Clear Marking — Printed white lettering on a black sleeve for easy identification.

Typical Applications

• General-purpose power filtering — Active smoothing and decoupling in power supply rails where reliable capacitance and ripple handling are needed.
• Compact equipment power modules — Provides bulk energy storage and ripple suppression in downsized electronic equipment.
• DC link and smoothing — Suitable where elevated ripple currents and stable capacitance over temperature are required.

Unique Advantages

• High ripple capability: Rated for 2,200 mA (120 Hz) and 3,300 mA (100 kHz), enabling effective ripple absorption in both low- and high-frequency environments.
• Compact form factor: φ30 × 40 mm body and LGG series ultra-smaller sizing support reduced PCB footprint and system downsizing.
• Endurance under stress: 2000-hour life at 105°C under rated bias and ripple ensures predictable performance in elevated-temperature applications.
• Wide temperature window: −40°C to +105°C rating covers a broad range of operating conditions for versatile deployment.
• Robust mounting: Snap-in radial can package provides stable mechanical retention for through-hole assemblies.
• Regulatory compliance: RoHS-compliant construction supports environmental requirements for electronic equipment.
