Overview of LGJ2G560MELY20 – 56 µF 400 V Snap-in Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor
The LGJ2G560MELY20 is a snap-in terminal type aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon’s LGJ series. It delivers 56 µF capacitance at a 400 V rating in a 105°C low-profile, radial can package sized φ20 × 20 mm, designed for general-purpose electronic applications where high-voltage, compact filtering components are required.
Key value propositions include a 400 V rated voltage, industry-standard ±20% capacitance tolerance, robust ripple-current handling across low and high frequencies, and a specified 3000 hours endurance at 105°C for reliable operation in sustained high-temperature environments.
Key Features
- Electrical Performance 56 µF capacitance with ±20% tolerance at 120 Hz, 20°C, and a 400 V rated voltage for high-voltage applications.
- Ripple Current Capability Rated ripple current of 550 mA at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 786.5 mA at 50 kHz (high frequency) to support demanding AC/ripple environments.
- Leakage and Polarization Polarized aluminum electrolytic design with a specified leakage current of 440 µA; series leakage specification: I ≤ 3√(C·V) (µA) after 5 minutes’ application of rated voltage at 20°C.
- Thermal and Endurance Operating temperature range of −25°C to +105°C and rated for 3000 hours endurance at 105°C, suitable for sustained elevated-temperature service.
- Mechanical & Packaging Low-profile radial can, snap-in mounting (φ20 × 20 mm) that supports secure board retention; supplied in tray packing and available for mass production volumes.
- Identification Sleeve marking is printed with white letters on a black sleeve for clear part identification on the board.
Typical Applications
- Industrial Power Modules For designs requiring a 400 V, 56 µF polarized capacitor with robust ripple handling and 105°C endurance in a compact, snap-in package.
- High-Voltage Power Supplies Suitable where high-voltage bulk capacitance and elevated-temperature reliability are required; the 400 V rating and rated ripple currents address smoothing and filtering needs.
- General-Purpose Electronics Use in general-purpose equipment that specifies a snap-in aluminum electrolytic capacitor with φ20 × 20 mm dimensions, ±20% tolerance, and mass-production availability.
Unique Advantages
- 400 V Rated Voltage: Enables use in high-voltage circuits without up-rating components or adding parallel devices.
- Compact Low-Profile Footprint: φ20 × 20 mm package provides sizable capacitance in a small board area for space-constrained designs.
- High Ripple Handling: 550 mA (120 Hz) and 786.5 mA (50 kHz) ripple ratings support applications with significant AC content across a broad frequency range.
- 105°C, 3000 h Endurance: Specified extended life at elevated temperature helps ensure long-term stability in hot operating environments.
- Snap-In Mounting & Tray Packing: Mechanical retention and production-ready packaging simplify assembly for medium-to-high volume manufacturing.
