Overview of LGN2E561MELA35 – 560 µF, 250 V Snap-In Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor
The LGN2E561MELA35 is a snap-in terminal aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon’s LGN series. It delivers 560 µF capacitance at a 250 V rating in a compact φ25 × 35 mm can with snap‑in mounting for secure installation.
Designed for general-purpose power applications, the part offers high ripple-current capability and long endurance at elevated temperature, making it suitable where robust bulk capacitance and dependable performance at up to 105°C are required.
Key Features
- Capacitance & Voltage: 560 µF nominal capacitance with a rated voltage of 250 V and capacitance tolerance of ±20% (–20%~20%).
- Ripple Current Performance: Rated low-frequency ripple current of 1.5 A at 120 Hz and high-frequency ripple current of 2.25 A at 100 kHz to support smoothing and decoupling under AC stress.
- Endurance at Elevated Temperature: Specified life/endurance of 3000 hours at 105°C; datasheet states the part withstands 3000 hours of rated ripple current application at 105°C.
- Electrical Loss and Leakage: Low loss tangent (tan δ) max. 0.15 measured at 20°C, 120 Hz; part leakage current specified at 1120 µA.
- Operating Temperature Range: −40°C to +105°C for reliable performance across common ambient and system temperatures.
- Package & Mounting: Radial snap‑in can (φ25 × 35 mm) supplied in tray packing for efficient handling and installation; snap‑in terminals provide robust mechanical retention.
- Regulatory: RoHS‑compliant.
Typical Applications
- General-purpose power supplies: Bulk capacitance and ripple-current capacity help smooth DC outputs and stabilize supply rails in general-purpose power designs.
- Bulk energy storage and filtering: 560 µF capacitance combined with rated ripple currents supports bulk charge storage and AC ripple filtering in power stages.
- High-ripple power modules: Long 3000-hour endurance at 105°C and specified ripple performance make the capacitor suitable for modules exposed to sustained ripple stresses.
Unique Advantages
- High ripple tolerance: Dual-frequency ripple ratings (1.5 A at 120 Hz, 2.25 A at 100 kHz) let designers size capacitance for both low- and high-frequency ripple loads.
- Long high-temperature life: 3000 hours endurance at 105°C provides predictable aging behavior for long-term reliability in warmer environments.
- Compact snap‑in form factor: φ25 × 35 mm can with snap‑in terminals delivers substantial capacitance in a small footprint and robust mechanical attachment.
- Quantified electrical characteristics: Specified tan δ (0.15 max at 20°C, 120 Hz) and leakage current (1120 µA) enable accurate design trade-offs for loss and self‑discharge budgets.
- Production readiness and compliance: Tray packaging and mass-production status ease procurement and assembly; RoHS compliance supports regulatory requirements.
