LGG2G221MELA30

The LGG2G221MELA30 from Nichicon is a snap-in terminal aluminum electrolytic capacitor in the LGG series, optimized for compact, high-voltage applications. It delivers 220 µF capacitance at a 400 V rating in a φ25 × 30 mm can and is designed for equipment downsizing with a smaller case size in the LGG family.

This part is specified for general-purpose use with a −25°C to 105°C operating range, 2000 hours endurance at 105°C, low loss (tan δ ≤ 0.15), RoHS compliance, and tray packing for mass production supply. Key electrical characteristics include ±20% tolerance, specified leakage current, and rated ripple performance at both low and high frequencies.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 220 µF nominal capacitance rated for 400 V DC with ±20% tolerance (120 Hz, 20°C).
• Snap-in Package — Radial, snap-in can package (φ25 × 30 mm) for secure board mounting and suitability for compact assemblies.
• High-temperature Endurance — Rated for 2000 hours at 105°C under DC bias plus rated ripple current per the LGG series endurance specification.
• Ripple Current Performance — Specified ripple handling of 850 mA (rms) at 120 Hz and 1.216 A at 100 kHz for improved filtering under AC ripple conditions.
• Low Loss — Tangent of loss angle (tan δ) max 0.15 at measurement conditions, supporting efficient energy handling.
• Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 880 µA after rated voltage application.
• RoHS Compliant — Conforms to RoHS directive requirements as noted for the LGG series.

Typical Applications

• General-purpose power modules — Use as a high-voltage smoothing or energy-storage capacitor in compact power supply assemblies where 400 V rating and 220 µF are required.
• Compact industrial equipment — Suited to equipment downsizing efforts thanks to the LGG series’ reduced case size while maintaining 105°C endurance.
• High-voltage filtering — Designed for filtering and ripple absorption in systems that require reliable ripple handling at both low (120 Hz) and high (100 kHz) frequencies.

Unique Advantages

• Compact high-voltage solution: 220 µF at 400 V in a φ25 × 30 mm snap-in can supports high-voltage designs with reduced board footprint.
• High ripple capability: Rated ripple currents of 850 mA (120 Hz) and 1.216 A (100 kHz) enable effective AC ripple management across frequency ranges.
• Long high-temperature life: 2000 hours endurance at 105°C provides predictable long-term performance in elevated ambient conditions.
• Low loss characteristics: tan δ ≤ 0.15 helps minimize power dissipation and heating under AC stress.
• Production-friendly packaging: Tray packing and mass-production availability support repeatable assembly and procurement for volume builds.
• Regulatory compliance: RoHS-compliant construction aligns with environmental requirements for commercial and industrial products.
