Overview of LGJ2F560MELZ15 – Snap‑in 105°C Low‑Profile Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor, 315 V, 56 µF
The LGJ2F560MELZ15 is an aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a snap‑in terminal, low‑profile can package from Nichicon’s LGJ series. It provides 56 µF of capacitance at a 315 V rating and is designed for general‑purpose applications that require high‑voltage bulk capacitance in a compact footprint.
Engineered for elevated operating temperatures, this part is specified for operation from −25°C to 105°C with a 2000‑hour endurance at 105°C, delivering reliable performance in demanding environments where space and thermal robustness are important.
Key Features
- Capacitance & Voltage — 56 µF nominal capacitance with a 315 V rated voltage and ±20% tolerance, providing a stable bulk energy storage option for higher‑voltage circuits.
- Snap‑In Radial Can Package — Snap‑in terminal mounting in a radial, can‑style package (φ22 × 15 mm) for secure board retention and simplified assembly in through‑hole layouts.
- High Temperature Endurance — Rated for −25°C to 105°C operation with a 2000 h life at 105°C, suited to applications requiring sustained performance at elevated temperatures.
- Ripple Current Performance — Low‑frequency ripple current 350 mA at 120 Hz and high‑frequency ripple current 500.5 mA at 50 kHz to support smoothing and decoupling under AC and switching conditions.
- Leakage & Polarization — Polarized electrolytic design with specified leakage current of 390 µA; suitable where polarized bulk capacitance is required.
- Production & Packaging — Tray packing and mass production status for predictable procurement and integration into volume manufacturing flows.
Typical Applications
- Power Conversion & Supplies — Bulk smoothing and energy storage in higher‑voltage power supply stages and converters where 315 V rated capacitance is required.
- Industrial Electronics — General‑purpose use in industrial control and power modules that demand compact high‑voltage capacitors with extended thermal endurance.
- High‑Voltage General‑Purpose Circuits — Suitable as a polarized bulk capacitor in general‑purpose high‑voltage electronic assemblies and subsystems.
Unique Advantages
- Compact, Low‑Profile Footprint — φ22 × 15 mm dimensions deliver 56 µF capacitance in a space‑efficient can for constrained enclosures.
- High Voltage Capability — 315 V rating provides headroom for higher‑voltage circuits without up‑rating multiple lower‑voltage parts.
- Robust Thermal Endurance — 2000 hours at 105°C supports reliable long‑term operation in warm environments.
- Snap‑In Mounting — Snap‑in terminals offer stable mechanical retention for through‑hole assemblies and straightforward installation.
- Measured Ripple Performance — Specified ripple currents at both low and high frequencies enable designers to assess thermal and AC stress handling accurately.
