LGG2G221MELZ35

The LGG2G221MELZ35 is an aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon's LGG series, featuring a snap-in terminal can and designed for 400 V rated operation. It delivers 220 µF capacitance in a compact 22 × 35 mm package and is offered for general-purpose applications that require high-voltage bulk capacitance with 105°C endurance.

Engineered for elevated-temperature reliability, this part provides specified ripple current handling, controlled loss angle, and RoHS compliance — making it suitable for production designs requiring consistent high-voltage performance and long-term availability.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage: 220 µF rated capacitance at 400 V for high-voltage bulk energy storage in a single component.
• Snap-In Package: Radial, can-type snap-in mounting (22 mm diameter × 35 mm length) for secure PCB retention and easy assembly.
• High-Temperature Endurance: Rated for operation from −25°C to +105°C with 2000 hours endurance at 105°C under DC bias plus rated ripple current.
• Ripple Current Capability: Supports 850 mA at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 1.216 A at 100 kHz (high frequency) to handle AC ripple in power circuits.
• Electrical Loss & Leakage: Tanδ (DF) of 0.15 max at 20°C, 120 Hz, and a measured leakage current of 880 µA, providing defined loss and leakage behavior for predictable circuit performance.
• Low-Temperature Impedance Stability: Impedance ratio Z(−25°C)/Z(+20°C) up to 8 at the 400 V rating, with defined behavior across the specified temperature range.
• Compliance & Production: RoHS compliant, tray packed, and in mass production to support design scale-up and procurement.

Typical Applications

• General-Purpose Power Supplies: Provides 220 µF at 400 V bulk capacitance and specified ripple handling for high-voltage smoothing and energy storage in power conversion stages.
• Industrial Equipment: Designed for elevated-temperature operation (−25°C to +105°C) and 2000 h endurance at 105°C, suitable for industrial designs requiring reliable long-term performance.
• High-Voltage Filter Networks: Defined tanδ, leakage, and ripple current ratings support use in AC/DC filter and decoupling networks where predictable electrical characteristics are required.

Unique Advantages

• Compact high-voltage solution: 220 µF in a 22 × 35 mm snap-in can provides a space-efficient option for designs needing 400 V capacitance.
• Designed for elevated temperatures: 2000 hours life at 105°C ensures sustained capacitance, dissipation factor, and leakage performance after prolonged high-temperature stress.
• Specified ripple handling: Provided ripple current ratings at both low (120 Hz) and high (100 kHz) frequencies enable designers to size capacitors against expected AC stress.
• Predictable electrical characteristics: Maximum tanδ of 0.15 at 120 Hz and a defined leakage current support accurate circuit modeling and reliability planning.
• Production-ready and compliant: RoHS compliant, tray packed, and in mass production to simplify procurement and assembly for volume builds.
