Overview of LGL2G151MELZ25 – Snap-in Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor, 150 µF / 400 V
The LGL2G151MELZ25 is a Nichicon LGL series snap-in aluminum electrolytic capacitor rated at 150 µF and 400 V. Designed as an ultra-smaller-sized, snap-in terminal type, it provides high-voltage capacitance in a compact radial can (φ22 × 25 mm).
Engineered for general-purpose power applications, the part combines a 105°C category temperature rating and 2000 hours endurance at 105°C with measurable low-loss and high ripple-current capability to support robust board-level power systems and assemblies.
Key Features
- High Voltage Rating — 400 V nominal rated voltage suitable for higher-voltage power rails within the specified limits.
- Capacitance & Tolerance — 150 µF with ±20% tolerance (measured at 120 Hz, 20°C) for predictable bulk energy storage and decoupling.
- 105°C Endurance — Rated life of 2000 hours at 105°C under DC bias plus rated ripple current, meeting the LGL series endurance specification.
- Low Dissipation Factor — tan δ ≤ 0.15 at 20°C and 120 Hz, minimizing dielectric losses at typical line frequencies.
- High Ripple-Current Capability — 730 mA at 120 Hz (low-frequency) and 1.044 A at 50 kHz (high-frequency), supporting applications with significant AC ripple.
- Controlled Leakage — Typical leakage current rating of 0.73 mA (730 µA) after rated voltage application at 20°C.
- Compact Snap-In Package — Radial, snap-in can configuration (φ22 × 25 mm) for secure board mounting and dense power assemblies.
- Wide Operating Temperature — Specified for –25°C to +105°C operation for use across a broad thermal range.
Typical Applications
- General Purpose — Suitable for general-purpose power circuitry where a 400 V, 150 µF snap-in capacitor is required.
- High-Temperature Power Assemblies — Use in designs that require components rated to 105°C with defined 2000-hour endurance.
- Compact High-Voltage Modules — Fits space-constrained power modules and assemblies that benefit from an ultra-smaller-sized snap-in radial can (φ22 × 25 mm).
Unique Advantages
- 400 V capability: Enables design flexibility for higher-voltage rails while staying within rated limits.
- Compact, snap-in form factor: φ22 × 25 mm radial can provides a secure mechanical mounting and reduced board footprint.
- Designed for elevated temperatures: 2000-hour endurance at 105°C supports reliable operation in hot environments.
- Measured ripple performance: 730 mA at 120 Hz and 1.044 A at 50 kHz help manage AC stress in power supplies and converters.
- Low tan δ: 0.15 (max) at 120 Hz, 20°C reduces dielectric losses for improved efficiency at line frequency.
- Predictable leakage behavior: Specified leakage current (≈730 µA) after voltage application enables tighter power budget planning.
