Overview of LGGW6391MELB40 – 390 µF, 420 V Snap‑In Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor
The LGGW6391MELB40 is a snap‑in terminal aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon's LGG series, offering 390 µF capacitance at a 420 V rating. Designed for general‑purpose use in equipment requiring high voltage bulk capacitance, it combines a compact snap‑in can package with a 105°C endurance rating for reliable performance in demanding environments.
As part of the LGG family, this part is optimized for equipment downsizing with a smaller case profile and is RoHS compliant. It is supplied in tray packing for efficient mass production assembly.
Key Features
- High Voltage Capability — Rated at 420 V, suitable for applications requiring high DC voltage bulk capacitance.
- Bulk Capacitance — 390 µF nominal capacitance with ±20% tolerance, providing substantial energy storage and smoothing capacity.
- Snap‑In Mounting — Radial snap‑in can package for secure PCB installation and streamlined through‑hole assembly.
- 105°C Endurance — Rated to operate up to 105°C with a specified lifetime of 2000 hours at 105°C under DC bias plus rated ripple current.
- Ripple Current Handling — Specified ripple currents of 1.61 A at 120 Hz and 2.302 A at 100 kHz enable effective performance under AC ripple conditions.
- Polarized Electrolytic — Polar construction for DC applications where polarized bulk capacitance is required.
- Environmental Compliance — RoHS compliant, supporting regulated manufacturing and end‑product requirements.
Typical Applications
- General‑Purpose Power Supplies — Bulk smoothing and energy storage in high‑voltage DC power supplies, leveraging 390 µF at 420 V and rated ripple current capability.
- Industrial Equipment — High‑voltage filter and energy reservoir in commercial and industrial systems that require components rated to 105°C and 2000 hours endurance.
- Rectifier and DC Link Circuits — Use where polarized, high‑voltage bulk capacitance is needed to stabilize DC rails and support transient loads.
Unique Advantages
- Compact, Down‑Sized Case — LGG series offers a smaller case profile compared to the previous series, aiding equipment miniaturization without sacrificing capacitance.
- High‑Temperature Endurance — 2000 hours at 105°C under rated conditions provides predictable life performance in elevated temperature environments.
- Robust Ripple Performance — Defined ripple current ratings at both 120 Hz and 100 kHz support stable operation across common power‑conversion frequencies.
- Secure Snap‑In Installation — Snap‑in terminal design simplifies mechanical retention and assembly for through‑hole production lines.
- Regulatory Compliance — RoHS compliance facilitates use in regulated product designs and global markets.
- Measured Leakage Characteristics — Leakage current specification follows I ≤ 3√CV after rated voltage, enabling predictable standby and filtering behavior.
