Overview of LGJ2G680MELZ20 – 68 µF, 400 V Snap‑in Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor
The LGJ2G680MELZ20 is a snap‑in terminal aluminum electrolytic capacitor designed for high‑voltage, general‑purpose power applications. It delivers 68 µF capacitance at a 400 V rating in a compact, low‑profile φ22 × 20 mm radial can optimized for tray packing and mass production.
Engineered for up to +105°C operation and a specified 3000 h endurance at 105°C, this capacitor suits designs that require high‑voltage bulk capacitance, reliable ripple handling and compact board mounting with snap‑in terminals.
Key Features
- Capacitance & Voltage — 68 µF nominal capacitance with a 400 V rated voltage and ±20% tolerance, providing bulk energy storage for high‑voltage systems.
- High Temperature Endurance — Rated for operation from −25°C to +105°C with a lifetime specification of 3000 hours at 105°C, enabling sustained performance in hot environments.
- Snap‑in Radial Can Package — Snap‑in terminal, radial can construction in a low‑profile φ22 × 20 mm form factor for secure board mounting and space‑efficient layouts.
- Ripple Current Capability — Low‑frequency ripple current of 620 mA (120 Hz) and high‑frequency ripple current of 886.6 mA (50 kHz), supporting effective smoothing in power conversion circuits.
- Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 490 µA, consistent with requirements for many power‑supply filtering applications.
- Polarized, General‑Purpose Design — Polarized aluminum electrolytic suitable for general‑purpose use in industrial and commercial power electronics.
- Production‑Ready Packaging — Supplied in tray packing and indicated as mass production availability for volume manufacturing needs.
Typical Applications
- Power Supplies — Bulk filtering and smoothing in high‑voltage AC/DC and DC/DC power supply stages where 400 V rating and high ripple capability are required.
- Industrial Equipment — Energy storage and decoupling in industrial control and power conversion modules operating up to +105°C.
- High‑Voltage Power Conversion — Smoothing and reservoir capacitance for inverters, converters, and other high‑voltage power electronics that benefit from a compact snap‑in capacitor.
Unique Advantages
- Compact, Low‑Profile Footprint: φ22 × 20 mm size provides high‑voltage bulk capacitance in a small envelope to save board space.
- High‑Temperature Endurance: 3000 hours at 105°C rating supports long service life in thermally demanding assemblies.
- Robust Ripple Handling: Specified ripple currents at both low and high frequencies enable reliable smoothing across a range of switching and line‑frequency conditions.
- Snap‑in Mounting for Secure Assembly: Snap‑in terminal construction simplifies mechanical retention and assembly in production environments.
- Mass Production Ready: Tray packing and production status support volume procurement and consistent supply for manufacturing runs.
