LGM2W221MELZ35

The LGM2W221MELZ35 is a snap-in terminal aluminum electrolytic capacitor engineered for compact, high-voltage applications. It delivers 220 µF at a 450 V rating in an ultra-smaller-sized, radial can package that is one rank smaller than the LGL series and is suited for equipment downsizing.

Designed for general-purpose use, the capacitor supports elevated operating temperatures up to 105°C and provides defined ripple current capability, making it appropriate for board-level snap-in installations where reliable high-voltage capacitance is required.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 220 µF nominal capacitance with a 450 V rated voltage for high-voltage energy storage needs.
• Snap-in Radial Can Package — Snap-in terminal type and radial can package for secure PCB mounting and straightforward assembly.
• Compact Footprint — Ultra-smaller-sized design (one rank smaller than LGL) to support equipment downsizing; package dimension L: 3.5 × D: 2.2 cm (22 × 35 mm per series table).
• High Temperature Operation — Rated for use from −25°C to +105°C with an endurance rated at 2000 hours at 105°C under DC bias plus rated ripple current.
• Ripple Current Ratings — Rated ripple current of 550 mA at 120 Hz; higher-frequency ripple guidance available (e.g., 786.5 mA at 50 kHz).
• Leakage and Loss Characteristics — Leakage current specified as I ≤ 3√(C·V) µA after 5 minutes at 20°C; tangent of loss angle (tan δ) 0.20 max at 120 Hz, 20°C.
• Reliability & Shelf Life — Endurance and shelf-life characteristics: capacitance change within ±20%, tan δ within 200% of initial, and leakage current not exceeding initial specified values after endurance/shelf tests per datasheet conditions.
• RoHS Compliance — Compliant to the RoHS directive (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).
• Marking — Printed with white letters on a black sleeve for clear identification.

Typical Applications

• General Purpose — Suitable for general-purpose circuits requiring a 220 µF, 450 V electrolytic capacitor in a snap-in radial can package.
• Equipment Downsizing — Designed to support equipment down sizing with an ultra-smaller-sized case (one rank smaller than LGL).
• Board-Level Snap-In Installations — Snap-in terminal configuration for secure mounting on PC boards where a compact high-voltage capacitor is needed.

Unique Advantages

• High-Voltage Capability: 450 V rating provides robust headroom for high-voltage circuits and designs.
• Compact, Space-Saving Form Factor: One-rank-smaller case compared to LGL helps reduce system footprint without sacrificing capacitance.
• High-Temperature Endurance: Rated for 2000 hours at 105°C under specified test conditions to support elevated-temperature deployments.
• Defined Ripple Performance: Rated ripple current (550 mA at 120 Hz) and higher-frequency ripple guidance enable designers to plan for real-world ripple loading.
• Measured Leakage and Loss Limits: Leakage current formula and tan δ limit (0.20 max) give quantifiable parameters for reliability and performance budgeting.
• RoHS-Compliant Construction: Meets RoHS directive requirements for environmentally regulated designs.
