LGG2W331MELB35

The LGG2W331MELB35 is a snap-in terminal aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon’s LGG series. It delivers 330 µF at a rated voltage of 450 V in a compact snap-in can designed for space-constrained designs.

Engineered for general-purpose power applications, this capacitor combines high-voltage capability, defined low-frequency and high-frequency ripple handling, and a 2000-hour endurance at 105°C to support reliable DC bias and ripple environments.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 330 µF rated at 450 V for high-voltage energy storage and smoothing.
• Tolerance — ±20% capacitance tolerance at 120 Hz and 20°C for predictable performance.
• Dissipation Factor (tan δ) — 0.20 maximum (450 V) measured at 120 Hz and 20°C to characterize dielectric losses.
• Ripple Current Performance — 1200 mA at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 1716 mA at 100 kHz (high frequency) for mixed-frequency ripple environments.
• Leakage Current — 1150 µA specified after voltage application, enabling predictable standby and bias behavior.
• Endurance — 2000 hours at 105°C under rated DC bias plus rated ripple current, meeting the LGG series endurance criteria.
• Operating Temperature Range — −25°C to +105°C for deployment in broad thermal conditions.
• Compact Snap-In Package — Radial, can-type snap-in construction sized for equipment downsizing: D 30 mm × L 35 mm, tray packing for mass production.
• RoHS Compliant — Meets RoHS directive requirements as stated for the LGG series.

Typical Applications

• General-purpose power filtering — Bulk smoothing and ripple suppression where 450 V rating and 330 µF capacitance are required.
• Industrial power equipment — Use in AC/DC and DC/DC stages where mixed-frequency ripple currents must be managed within defined endurance.
• Equipment downsizing — Smaller case sizing in the LGG series supports reduced footprint designs without sacrificing rated voltage.

Unique Advantages

• High-voltage capability: 450 V rating enables use in higher-voltage power rails while maintaining compact snap-in packaging.
• Mixed-frequency ripple handling: Specified ripple current values at 120 Hz and 100 kHz provide designers with quantified performance across common ripple spectra.
• Long endurance at elevated temperature: 2000 hours at 105°C under rated conditions supports reliable long-term operation in thermally demanding applications.
• Predictable leakage and loss characteristics: Specified leakage current and tan δ help ensure stable bias and loss planning in power designs.
• RoHS compliance: Enables deployment in designs requiring RoHS directive adherence.
