LGJ2D101MELY15

The LGJ2D101MELY15 is a Nichicon LGJ series aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a low‑profile snap‑in can. It delivers 100 µF capacitance at a 200 V rating with a compact φ20 × 15 mm footprint and snap‑in mounting for robust panel or chassis installation.

Designed for general‑purpose power applications, this capacitor combines a wide operating temperature range (−40°C to 105°C), 2,000 hour endurance at 105°C, and defined ripple and leakage characteristics to support reliable DC filtering and energy storage in industrial and electronic systems.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage: 100 µF rated capacitance with a 200 V maximum working voltage and ±20% tolerance, providing predictable energy storage for high‑voltage circuits.
• Snap‑in Mounting & Package: Radial can, snap‑in terminal type in a low‑profile φ20 × 15 mm (D × L) package, suitable for secure mechanical mounting on panels or chassis; supplied in tray packing.
• Temperature & Endurance: Operates from −40°C to 105°C with a rated lifespan of 2,000 hours at 105°C, enabling sustained performance in elevated temperature environments.
• Ripple Current Performance: 450 mA ripple at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 675 mA at 50 kHz (high frequency), supporting smoothing and filtering under varying ripple conditions.
• Leakage Current: Low leakage current specified at 420 µA, helping minimize standby losses and preserve circuit integrity.
• Polarized Electrolytic Construction: Polarized aluminum electrolytic design suitable for DC applications where polarized capacitance is required.

Typical Applications

• General‑purpose power electronics: Bulk energy storage and DC filtering where a 200 V, 100 µF capacitor with high temperature endurance is required.
• Industrial power supplies: Smoothing and ripple reduction in power conversion equipment operating up to 105°C ambient.
• Chassis‑mounted assemblies: Snap‑in radial can form factor for secure mounting in panel or enclosure designs using tray‑packed components for assembly.

Unique Advantages

• High‑voltage capability: 200 V rating enables use in higher DC bus and intermediate‑voltage circuits without upsizing the capacitor.
• Compact low‑profile footprint: φ20 × 15 mm size minimizes board space while delivering 100 µF capacitance for dense designs.
• Robust thermal endurance: 2,000 hours at 105°C supports designs exposed to sustained elevated temperatures.
• Defined ripple handling: Specified ripple currents at both low and high frequencies (450 mA @120 Hz, 675 mA @50 kHz) provide clear selection criteria for filtering applications.
• Controlled leakage: 420 µA leakage current specification aids in power budgeting and reduces parasitic discharge in standby conditions.
• Tray packing: Shipped in trays to simplify handling and assembly for volume production.
