LGJ2G820MELC15

The LGJ2G820MELC15 is an aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a snap-in terminal, low-profile can designed for general-purpose power applications. It delivers 82 µF capacitance at a 400 V rating with a compact φ35 × 15 mm package and is aimed at designs that require high-voltage capacitance with controlled ripple performance and elevated temperature endurance.

Key electrical characteristics include ±20% capacitance tolerance, low- and high-frequency ripple current ratings, leakage current specification, and a 2000-hour endurance rating at 105°C—features that support stable operation in demanding thermal environments.

Key Features

• Electrical rating — 82 µF capacitance with a 400 V rated voltage and ±20% tolerance at 120 Hz, 20°C, providing specified capacitance for high-voltage applications.
• Snap-in radial package — Radial, can-type snap-in mounting suited for through-hole assembly and secure board retention.
• Low-profile mechanical size — Compact dimensions φ35 × 15 mm (L: 1.5 cm × D: 3.5 cm) for reduced vertical envelope in constrained layouts.
• Temperature range and endurance — Operating temperature −25°C to +105°C with a rated life of 2000 hours at 105°C, supporting long-term operation at elevated temperatures.
• Ripple performance — Low-frequency ripple current of 500 mA at 120 Hz and high-frequency ripple current of 715 mA at 50 kHz, enabling effective smoothing across a range of switching and line frequencies.
• Leakage current — Specified leakage current of 540 µA to allow predictable bias and discharge behavior in power circuits.
• Packaging and availability — Supplied in tray packing and listed as mass production status for production-scale sourcing.

Typical Applications

• General-purpose power systems — Intended for general-purpose applications that require 400 V rated capacitance with controlled ripple and leakage characteristics.
• Thermally demanding environments — Suited to assemblies that operate up to 105°C where a 2000-hour endurance at 105°C is required.
• Through-hole assemblies — Snap-in terminal arrangement provides reliable mechanical retention for board-mounted high-voltage capacitor implementations.

Unique Advantages

• High-voltage capability: Rated for 400 V, enabling use where elevated DC bus voltages are present.
• Compact, low-profile form: φ35 × 15 mm package minimizes vertical space while delivering 82 µF capacitance.
• Robust temperature endurance: 2000 hours at 105°C specification provides assurance for sustained operation in hot operating environments.
• Measured ripple performance: Defined low- and high-frequency ripple current numbers (500 mA at 120 Hz, 715 mA at 50 kHz) help predict ripple handling across common frequencies.
• Predictable leakage: Specified leakage current of 540 µA enables deterministic biasing and design margin calculations.
• Production-ready supply: Tray packing and mass production status support volume procurement and automated handling processes.
