LGG2P122MELC30

The LGG2P122MELC30 is a snap‑in terminal aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon's LGG series, offering 1,200 µF capacitance at a 220 V rating. Engineered for general‑purpose power applications, it combines high ripple capability and compact snap‑in packaging to support equipment downsizing and reliable DC bus or smoothing functions.

Key performance attributes include a 2000‑hour endurance at 105°C, low‑frequency and high‑frequency ripple current capability, and RoHS compliance—making it suitable where sustained ripple handling and thermal robustness are required within a compact radial can footprint (φ35 × 30 mm).

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 1,200 µF nominal capacitance with a 220 V rated voltage and ±20% tolerance at 120 Hz, 20°C for predictable energy storage and decoupling.
• High Ripple Handling — 2,350 mA rated ripple current at 120 Hz and 3,525 mA at 100 kHz to support demanding AC ripple and power supply smoothing.
• Thermal Endurance — Specified 2,000 hours lifetime at 105°C under DC bias plus rated ripple current, enabling extended service in elevated temperature environments.
• Low Loss Characteristics — Tangent of loss angle (tan δ) of 0.15 maximum measured at 20°C and 120 Hz for controlled dissipation behavior.
• Leakage Current — Typical leakage current of 1,540 µA after rated voltage is applied, allowing designers to account for standby losses.
• Compact Snap‑In Package — Radial, can-style snap‑in mounting (φ35 × 30 mm) for secure chassis or board installation and easier assembly in compact power modules.
• Environmental Compliance — RoHS compliant per the LGG series documentation.
• Production Availability — Listed as mass production status for predictable procurement and BOM planning.

Typical Applications

• Power supply smoothing — Bulk decoupling and DC bus smoothing where 1,200 µF at 220 V is required to stabilize supply rails.
• Industrial power electronics — Energy storage and ripple filtering in general‑purpose industrial modules that operate up to 105°C.
• Equipment downsizing — Compact radial snap‑in can supports space‑constrained designs that require high ripple current handling.

Unique Advantages

• High combined LF/HF ripple capability: Specified ripple currents at both 120 Hz and 100 kHz allow a single component to address low‑frequency and high‑frequency ripple demands.
• Long endurance at elevated temperature: 2,000 hours at 105°C under rated conditions provides measurable lifetime metrics for thermal stress planning.
• Compact snap‑in form factor: φ35 × 30 mm radial can and snap‑in terminals enable secure mounting and space savings for chassis or module installations.
• Predictable electrical behavior: Specified tan δ and leakage current figures allow accurate thermal and loss budgeting in power designs.
• RoHS compliance: Meets environmental directive requirements for regulated materials.
• Production readiness: Mass production status supports consistent supply for volume designs.
