LGJ2D331MELA20

The LGJ2D331MELA20 from Nichicon is a snap‑in terminal type aluminum electrolytic capacitor in the LGJ series, optimized for general‑purpose power applications. It delivers 330 µF capacitance at a 200 V rating in a low‑profile, radial can package suitable for high‑temperature environments.

Key value comes from its 105°C rated operating range, 3000‑hour endurance at 105°C, and robust ripple current capability—making it a reliable option where sustained high temperature performance and effective power smoothing are required.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 330 µF nominal capacitance with a 200 V rated voltage and ±20% tolerance for general‑purpose energy storage and smoothing.
• High‑Temperature Operation — Rated for continuous operation from –40°C to 105°C, supporting designs exposed to elevated ambient temperatures.
• Endurance — 3000 hours life at 105°C, delivering long‑term stability for demanding thermal environments.
• Ripple Current Performance — 960 mA rated ripple current at low frequency (120 Hz) and 1.44 A at high frequency (50 kHz), allowing effective AC ripple handling across a range of frequencies.
• Low Leakage — Specified leakage current of 0.77 mA, supporting low loss and predictable behavior after voltage application.
• Package & Mounting — Snap‑in (radial, can) mounting in a compact φ25 × 20 mm low‑profile package, supplied in tray packing for mass production assembly.
• Polarized Design — Polar capacitor suitable for DC power circuits where polarity is defined.

Typical Applications

• General‑purpose power electronics — Energy storage and smoothing in DC power rails that require a 200 V, 330 µF snap‑in capacitor with high temperature endurance.
• Industrial power supplies — Bulk filtering and ripple suppression where 105°C operation and multi‑kilo‑hour endurance are needed.
• Power conversion modules — Support for converters and inverters that demand high ripple current handling at both low and high frequencies.

Unique Advantages

• High‑temperature reliability: 105°C rating combined with 3000 h endurance reduces the need for frequent replacements in hot operating environments.
• Robust ripple handling: 960 mA (120 Hz) and 1.44 A (50 kHz) rated ripple currents enable stable performance across a wide frequency range.
• Compact low‑profile footprint: φ25 × 20 mm can provides a space‑efficient solution for designs with height constraints while retaining snap‑in mounting robustness.
• Predictable leakage: Specified 0.77 mA leakage current supports designs needing consistent post‑bias behavior.
• Production‑friendly packaging: Tray packing and snap‑in terminals simplify handling and insertion for mass production assembly.
