LGG2P122MELB40

The LGG2P122MELB40 is an aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a snap‑in terminal, radial can package designed for general‑purpose power applications. It is part of Nichicon's LGG series and offers an ultra‑smaller case footprint—one rank smaller than the LGN series—making it suited for equipment downsizing where board space is limited.

Key attributes include 1.2 mF capacitance at 220 V rated voltage, polarized construction, operation to 105°C with a defined 2000‑hour endurance, and RoHS compliance for environmental conformity.

Key Features

• Electrical 1.2 mF rated capacitance at 220 V with ±20% tolerance; polarized design for DC filtering and energy storage in general‑purpose circuits.
• Ripple Current Performance Rated ripple handling of 2.5 A at 120 Hz and 3.75 A at 100 kHz to support AC ripple smoothing and bias stabilization.
• Thermal & Endurance Operating temperature range –40°C to +105°C with an endurance rating of 2000 hours at 105°C under rated bias and ripple conditions.
• Compact Mechanical Package Ultra‑smaller‑sized snap‑in radial can (size: L: 4 × D: 3 cm) for reduced board footprint and simplified chassis mounting; snap‑in terminals for secure mounting.
• Reliability & Quality Leakage current specification and tan δ limits per the LGG series endurance and shelf‑life requirements help maintain long‑term performance after thermal stress.
• Environmental Compliance RoHS compliant (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863), supporting regulatory requirements for material content.

Typical Applications

• General Purpose Power Filtering Bulk smoothing and decoupling in power supplies and electronic equipment where a compact, high‑voltage electrolytic is required.
• Equipment Downsizing Use in designs targeting reduced enclosure and PCB footprint—the LGG2P122MELB40’s one‑rank smaller case helps enable smaller power assemblies.
• High‑Temperature Environments Circuits operating up to 105°C that require stable capacitance and defined endurance for reliable operation.

Unique Advantages

• Space‑Saving Form Factor: One rank smaller case than LGN and compact L: 4 × D: 3 cm dimensions reduce BOM footprint and facilitate smaller system designs.
• High‑Temperature Endurance: Rated for –40°C to +105°C and specified for 2000 hours at 105°C, providing predictable long‑term behavior in thermally demanding applications.
• Defined Ripple Handling: Dual ripple ratings (2.5 A at 120 Hz, 3.75 A at 100 kHz) allow designers to match the capacitor to expected ripple profiles in power circuits.
• Snap‑in Mechanical Stability: Radial, snap‑in can package secures the capacitor to chassis or board assemblies for robust mechanical mounting.
• Regulatory Compliance: RoHS compliance aligns the component with environmental material requirements for modern assemblies.
