LGN2E331MELY35

The LGN2E331MELY35 is an aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a snap-in terminal, smaller-sized package designed for general-purpose electronic applications. This 330 µF, 250 V polarized capacitor offers a compact footprint and is optimized for high-temperature endurance.

Engineered for robust operation up to 105°C, the capacitor withstands rated ripple current application for 3000 hours at 105°C and is RoHS compliant, making it suitable for designs that require durability and regulatory compliance.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage: 330 µF nominal capacitance at a rated voltage of 250 V, with ±20% tolerance.
• High-Temperature Endurance: Rated for operation up to 105°C with a specified endurance of 3000 hours under rated ripple current at 105°C.
• Ripple Current Capability: Ripple current ratings of 1.2 A at 120 Hz and 1.8 A at 100 kHz provide defined performance across low and high frequency stress conditions.
• Mounting & Package: Snap-in terminal type in a radial can package for secure PCB mounting and simplified assembly.
• Compact Size: Smaller-sized case (one rank smaller than LGU) with dimensions L: 3.5 × D: 2 cm, enabling use in space-constrained layouts.
• Operating Range & Polarization: Polarized capacitor with an operating temperature range from −40°C to +105°C.
• Regulatory Compliance: Compliant to the RoHS directive (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).

Typical Applications

• General-purpose electronic circuits: Provides bulk capacitance where a 330 µF, 250 V polarized capacitor is required for general use.
• High-temperature environments: Suited to applications that require continuous operation up to 105°C with defined endurance under rated ripple current.
• Space-constrained designs: The smaller-sized snap-in package is useful when board area or rack depth is limited.

Unique Advantages

• Designed for extended high-temperature operation: 3000-hour endurance at 105°C provides predictable ageing characteristics under stress.
• Defined ripple performance across frequencies: Specified ripple current values at 120 Hz and 100 kHz help designers assess thermal and electrical stress handling.
• Snap-in package for reliable mounting: Radial snap-in terminals simplify PCB retention and mechanical stability during assembly.
• Compact form factor: One rank smaller case than the LGU series enables denser packing or reduced enclosure size.
• Regulatory readiness: RoHS compliance supports use in regulated markets without additional selection steps.
