Overview of LGN2E221MELZ25 – Aluminum Electrolytic Snap‑In Capacitor, 220 µF, 250 V, 105°C
The LGN2E221MELZ25 is a Nichicon aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a snap‑in terminal, radial can package. It delivers 220 µF at 250 V with a compact φ22 × 25 mm footprint and is specified for general‑purpose applications requiring sustained performance at elevated temperature.
Designed for demanding ripple environments, this part offers long endurance at 105°C, controlled loss characteristics and low leakage, making it suitable for power filtering and energy‑storage roles in industrial and commercial equipment.
Key Features
- Capacitance & Voltage — 220 µF rated capacitance at 250 V to support bulk decoupling and energy storage in general-purpose circuits.
- Tolerance & Loss — ±20% capacitance tolerance with tanδ (DF) specified at 0.15 maximum (20°C, 120 Hz) for predictable AC behaviour.
- Ripple Current Handling — Specified for 1000 mA at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 1500 mA at 100 kHz (high frequency), and designed to withstand rated ripple current for 3000 hours at 105°C.
- Leakage Current — Low leakage current rated at 700 µA to minimize idle losses in power systems.
- Temperature & Endurance — Operating range from −40°C to +105°C with a 3000‑hour endurance rating at 105°C under rated conditions.
- Package & Mounting — Snap‑in terminal, radial can format (φ22 × 25 mm) for mechanical stability and ease of insertion in power module assemblies; tray packing and mass production status support volume manufacturing.
- Compliance — RoHS compliant as supplied by the manufacturer.
Typical Applications
- General‑purpose power filtering — Bulk decoupling and smoothing in power supplies and converters where a 220 µF, 250 V capacitor is required.
- High‑ripple power circuits — Circuits that require sustained ripple current performance at elevated temperature; the part is specified to withstand rated ripple current for 3000 hours at 105°C.
- Space‑conscious power assemblies — Compact φ22 × 25 mm size for radial snap‑in layouts where board space and reliable mounting are important.
Unique Advantages
- Long high‑temperature endurance — 3000 hours life at 105°C under rated conditions provides predictable ageing and maintenance intervals.
- High ripple capability — Defined ripple current ratings at both low and high frequencies support mixed-frequency power applications.
- Compact snap‑in form factor — φ22 × 25 mm radial can with snap‑in terminals offers a small footprint with secure mechanical retention.
- Low leakage — 700 µA leakage current reduces standby losses and contributes to stable bias conditions.
- Production ready — Tray packing and mass production status simplify procurement and volume assembly planning.
- Regulatory compliance — RoHS compliance for environmental directive requirements.
