Overview of LGN2H560MELZ25 – Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor, Snap‑in, 56 µF / 500 V
The LGN2H560MELZ25 is a Nichicon LGN series aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a snap‑in radial can package. It provides a 56 µF capacitance at a 500 V rated voltage and is polarized for general purpose electronic applications.
Designed for reliability under elevated temperature stress, this part withstands 3000 hours of rated ripple current at 105°C and is RoHS compliant, making it suitable for general‑purpose designs that require high‑voltage, compact snap‑in capacitors.
Key Features
- Electrical — Capacitance & Voltage: 56 µF nominal capacitance with a 500 V rated voltage and capacitance tolerance of −20% to +20%.
- Package & Mounting: Snap‑in terminal, radial can package (snap‑in) with dimensions L: 2.5 cm × D: 2.2 cm and a seated height up to 2.5 cm.
- Temperature Range: Operating temperature range is −25 °C to +105 °C.
- Endurance: Rated to withstand 3000 hours of rated ripple current at 105 °C per LGN series endurance specification.
- Ripple Current Performance: Rated ripple current of 470 mA at 120 Hz and 672.1 mA at 100 kHz as specified for this part.
- Polarized Construction: Polarized aluminum electrolytic design for applications requiring electrolytic capacitance at high DC voltage.
- Regulatory Compliance: Compliant with the RoHS directive (2011/65/EU and (EU)2015/863).
Typical Applications
- General Purpose Electronics: Suited to general‑purpose applications that require a 56 µF, 500 V snap‑in aluminum electrolytic capacitor for DC high‑voltage circuits.
- High‑Temperature Environments: Appropriate where components must tolerate extended ripple stress at elevated temperatures, thanks to 3000‑hour endurance at 105 °C.
- Space‑Constrained Snap‑in Designs: One rank smaller case size than LGU and a compact L×D footprint (2.5 × 2.2 cm) help reduce board space for snap‑in mounted capacitors.
Unique Advantages
- High‑voltage capability: 500 V rating provides headroom for designs requiring elevated DC voltage handling.
- Compact snap‑in form factor: Radial snap‑in can and reduced case size (one rank smaller than LGU) enable tighter board layouts while retaining robust mounting.
- Designed for extended thermal stress: 3000 hours of rated ripple current endurance at 105 °C supports long‑term performance in hot operating conditions.
- Measured ripple performance: Specified ripple current at both low and high frequencies (470 mA at 120 Hz, 672.1 mA at 100 kHz) for predictable behavior across common operating ranges.
- Regulatory compliance: RoHS compliance simplifies environmental and regulatory evaluation for product designs.
