Overview of LGJ2G680MELB15 – 68 µF 400 V Snap‑in Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor

The LGJ2G680MELB15 is a snap‑in terminal aluminum electrolytic capacitor designed for general‑purpose power applications. It combines a 68 µF capacitance with a 400 V rated voltage in a low‑profile, radial can package optimized for board‑level power filtering and energy storage in compact assemblies.

Built for elevated operating temperatures, this part supports continuous operation up to 105°C with a rated endurance of 2000 hours at 105°C, making it suitable for demanding thermal environments where reliable capacitance and predictable leakage are required.

Key Features

  • Capacitance & Voltage — 68 µF capacitance at a 400 V rated voltage, specified ±20% tolerance (‑20% ~ +20%) at 120 Hz, 20°C.
  • Temperature & Endurance — Rated for operation from ‑25°C to +105°C with a life/endurance rating of 2000 hours at 105°C.
  • Snap‑in Radial Package — Snap‑in terminal, radial can package for secure board mounting and high‑current terminal connections; tray packing for production handling.
  • Low‑Profile Size — Compact dimensions: diameter 30 mm × length 15 mm (φ30 × 15L), with a seated height of 1.5 cm, enabling use in space‑constrained power modules.
  • Ripple Current Ratings — Specified low‑frequency ripple current of 450 mA at 120 Hz and high‑frequency ripple current of 643.5 mA at 50 kHz, supporting AC ripple handling across common frequencies.
  • Leakage & Polarization — Polarized aluminum electrolytic design with measured leakage current of 490 µA; datasheet leakage formula and limits apply for verification (I ≤ 3√CV μA after 5 minutes at 20°C).

Typical Applications

  • Power supplies — Board‑level filtering and bulk energy storage for switching and linear power supplies requiring 400 V rated components.
  • Industrial power modules — Compact, high‑temperature applications where low‑profile snap‑in capacitors are needed for reliable DC link and smoothing functions.
  • General‑purpose electronics — Use in assemblies that require robust electrolytic capacitance with predictable endurance and leakage characteristics.

Unique Advantages

  • High‑temperature endurance: Rated to 105°C with a 2000‑hour life at that temperature for sustained reliability in warm operating environments.
  • 400 V capability: Provides the voltage margin needed for higher‑voltage DC link and power conversion applications.
  • Measurable ripple performance: Published ripple current values at 120 Hz and 50 kHz allow designers to assess thermal and ripple handling across low and high frequencies.
  • Compact, snap‑in form factor: Low‑profile φ30 × 15 mm can with snap‑in terminals for secure mounting and efficient PCB layout in constrained designs.
  • Production ready: Tray packing and mass production status simplify procurement and assembly planning for volume builds.
  • Predictable electrical behavior: Specified leakage current and ±20% tolerance give clear margins for circuit design and verification.
