Overview of LGG2G271MELB25 – Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor, Snap-in, 400V 270µF
The LGG2G271MELB25 is a snap-in terminal aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon's LGG series, designed for compact, high-voltage applications. It delivers 270 µF capacitance at a 400 V rating with ±20% tolerance and is constructed for general-purpose use in electronic equipment.
Engineered for durability, this part is specified for operation from −25°C to +105°C with a 2000-hour endurance at 105°C, small radial can dimensions (φ30 × 25 mm), and tray packing for mass production assembly processes.
Key Features
- High voltage rating: 400 V rated voltage suitable for high-voltage circuits requiring robust DC capacitance.
- Nominal capacitance and tolerance: 270 µF with ±20% tolerance at 120 Hz, 20°C, providing predictable energy storage and filtering behavior.
- Endurance at elevated temperature: 2000 hours life at 105°C under D.C. bias plus rated ripple current, meeting the LGG series endurance criteria after recovery to 20°C.
- Thermal range and low-temperature performance: Operating range −25°C to +105°C; impedance ratio specification for 400 V types supports use down to −25°C.
- Low loss factor: tanδ specified at 0.15 (max.) for rated voltages up to 420 V, measured at 120 Hz/20°C, indicating controlled dielectric losses.
- Ripple current capability: Rated ripple currents of 1 A at 120 Hz and 1.43 A at 100 kHz, enabling AC ripple handling in power circuits.
- Snap-in radial can package: φ30 × 25 mm radial, snap-in terminal construction for secure board mounting and streamlined assembly; supplied in tray packing for production environments.
- Compliance: RoHS compliant as specified for the LGG series.
Typical Applications
- General-purpose electronic equipment: Provides DC energy storage and smoothing in electronic systems that require a 400 V, 270 µF snap-in capacitor.
- Power conversion modules: Used for bulk filtering and ripple suppression where elevated voltage rating and defined ripple current capability are required.
- Industrial and commercial electronics: Suited to compact designs that benefit from the LGG series' smaller case size for equipment downsizing while retaining 105°C endurance.
Unique Advantages
- High-voltage capability: 400 V rating supports higher-voltage DC rails without stacking multiple components.
- Compact footprint for downsized equipment: φ30 × 25 mm radial can fits tighter layouts—LGG is one rank smaller than LGN in case size—helping reduce enclosure volume.
- Long operating life at temperature: 2000 hours at 105°C under rated conditions provides predictable long-term performance in elevated-temperature environments.
- Measured ripple performance: Specified ripple current at both low and high frequencies (1 A at 120 Hz, 1.43 A at 100 kHz) lets designers size components with confidence.
- Controlled dielectric losses: tanδ max 0.15 (120 Hz, 20°C) supports thermal management and efficiency planning in power circuits.
- Manufacturing-friendly packaging: Tray packing and snap-in terminals simplify placement and wave/flow solder-compatible assembly for high-volume production.
