LGG2P222MELC50

The LGG2P222MELC50 from Nichicon is a snap‑in terminal aluminum electrolytic capacitor in the LGG series, offering 2.2 mF capacitance at a 220 V rating. Designed for general‑purpose power applications, it delivers bulk energy storage and ripple smoothing in compact equipment footprints.

With a φ35 × 50 mm case, snap‑in mounting, RoHS compliance and mass‑production availability, this part targets engineers and OEMs seeking high ripple capability and reliable performance up to 105°C with a 2000‑hour endurance specification.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 2.2 mF (2200 µF) rated at 220 V for bulk filtering and energy storage.
• High Ripple Handling — Low‑frequency ripple current 2.95 A (120 Hz) and high‑frequency ripple current 4.425 A (100 kHz) to support demanding power supply ripple environments.
• Electrical Stability — ±20% capacitance tolerance and tan δ 0.15 (max) measured at 20°C, 120 Hz for predictable loss characteristics.
• Temperature & Endurance — Operating range −40°C to 105°C with a rated endurance of 2000 hours at 105°C under specified DC bias and ripple conditions.
• Leakage Current — Measured leakage current of 2080 µA at application conditions (after 5 minutes at rated voltage, per part data), useful for power budget planning.
• Compact Snap‑In Package — φ35 × 50 mm radial can with snap‑in terminals for secure board mounting and easy assembly; series LGG is specified as an ultra‑smaller‑sized, snap‑in terminal type.
• Compliance & Supply — RoHS‑compliant construction with tray packing and mass‑production availability for volume designs.

Typical Applications

• Power Supply Filtering — Bulk capacitance and high ripple capability for smoothing and hold‑up in industrial and commercial power supplies.
• DC‑Link / Converter Support — Provides energy buffering and ripple attenuation in DC‑link stages of converters and inverters operating up to 220 V.
• Motor Drives & Industrial Controls — Used for decoupling and energy storage where elevated ripple current and high temperature endurance are required.
• Compact Equipment Designs — The LGG series’ ultra‑smaller‑sized case is suited for equipment downsizing where board space is constrained.

Unique Advantages

• High Working Voltage with Large Capacitance: 220 V rating combined with 2200 µF provides substantial stored energy in a single component for simplified BOM.
• Robust Ripple Performance: Specified ripple currents at both low (120 Hz) and high (100 kHz) frequencies support a wide range of switching and line conditions.
• Designed for Elevated Temperatures: 2000‑hour endurance at 105°C ensures predictable long‑term behavior in thermally demanding environments.
• Compact Snap‑In Form Factor: Radial snap‑in can eases PCB mounting and is optimized for space‑constrained assemblies.
• Production‑Ready Supply: Tray packing and mass‑production status simplify procurement and assembly planning for volume programs.
