LGG2W561MELC45

The LGG2W561MELC45 is a snap-in terminal aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon’s LGG series. It delivers 560 µF capacitance at a 450 V rating in a compact radial can (φ35 × 45 mm) designed for downsized equipment.

This part targets general-purpose power applications requiring high-voltage capacitance with defined endurance and ripple performance. Key value comes from its 105°C endurance rating, snap-in mounting for robust PCB retention, and RoHS compliance for regulated production environments.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 560 µF nominal capacitance with a 450 V rated voltage and ±20% tolerance at 120 Hz, 20°C.
• Temperature Range & Endurance — Rated for operation from −25°C to +105°C and qualified for 2000 hours at 105°C under DC bias plus rated ripple current.
• Snap-In Radial Package — Snap-in terminal type in a radial can (φ35 × 45 mm) for secure mounting; packaged in trays for handling and assembly.
• Ripple Current Capability — Low-frequency ripple current of 1.7 A (120 Hz) and high-frequency ripple current of 2.431 A (100 kHz), supporting AC ripple demands across frequencies.
• Electrical Loss & Leakage — Tangent of loss angle (tanδ) up to 0.20 at 450 V (120 Hz, 20°C) and specified leakage current of 1500 µA (measured after application of rated voltage).
• Series Design for Downsizing — LGG series described as “105°C Ultra-Smaller-Sized,” one rank smaller than LGN, suited to equipment size reduction.
• Regulatory Compliance — RoHS compliant for use in regulated production environments.

Typical Applications

• General-purpose power electronics — For designs that require a 450 V, 560 µF snap-in aluminum electrolytic capacitor in general-purpose equipment.
• High-voltage DC circuits — Applicable where high-voltage rated bulk capacitance is needed in compact snap-in form factors.
• Industrial equipment — Suited to industrial assemblies that require 105°C endurance and tray-packed parts for production handling.

Unique Advantages

• High-voltage bulk capacitance: 450 V rating combined with 560 µF provides substantial capacitance for high-voltage circuits without a larger case size.
• Compact, snap-in packaging: φ35 × 45 mm radial can with snap-in terminals supports secure PCB mounting while enabling equipment downsizing as part of the LGG series.
• Broad ripple performance: Specified ripple currents at 120 Hz (1.7 A) and 100 kHz (2.431 A) cover low- and high-frequency ripple conditions.
• High-temperature endurance: 2000 hours at 105°C under rated conditions provides a defined life metric for thermal stress planning.
• Measurable electrical characteristics: Defined tanδ (0.20 max at 450 V, 120 Hz, 20°C) and leakage current (1500 µA measured after voltage application) enable predictable electrical behavior.
• RoHS compliant and production-ready: Tray packing and mass-production status support volume assembly and regulatory requirements.
