Overview of LGN2P152MELB50 – 1.5 mF, 220 V Snap‑in Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor, 105°C
The LGN2P152MELB50 is an aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a snap‑in terminal, radial can package designed for general‑purpose applications. It delivers 1.5 mF capacitance at a 220 V rating with polarized construction and a compact, smaller‑sized case footprint compared to the LGU series.
Engineered for elevated operating conditions, this part is specified for operation from −40°C to 105°C and is qualified to withstand 3000 hours of rated ripple current at 105°C, offering reliable smoothing and energy‑storage performance in demanding environments.
Key Features
- Capacitance & Voltage — 1.5 mF capacitance with a 220 V rated voltage and ±20% tolerance for bulk energy storage and filtering.
- High‑Temperature Endurance — Operating temperature range −40°C to 105°C and endurance specified as 3000 hours at 105°C under rated ripple current.
- Ripple Current Capability — Rated ripple current of 2.76 A at 120 Hz and 4.14 A at 100 kHz to support AC ripple handling in power circuits.
- Package & Mounting — Snap‑in terminal, radial can package designed for secure board mounting and through‑hole assembly.
- Compact Size — Smaller‑sized case (one rank smaller than LGU) with dimensions L: 5 × D: 3 cm and maximum seated height of 1.969 inch, enabling denser layouts.
- Environmental Compliance — RoHS compliant per the 2011/65/EU and (EU)2015/863 directives.
Typical Applications
- General‑purpose power filtering — Bulk smoothing and decoupling where 1.5 mF at 220 V and elevated temperature endurance are required.
- Industrial power supplies — Energy storage and ripple handling in industrial power modules operating up to 105°C.
- Energy buffering — Local energy reservoir in equipment that needs sustained capacitance and specified ripple current capability.
Unique Advantages
- Rated for sustained high‑temperature ripple — 3000‑hour endurance at 105°C under rated ripple current reduces the need for frequent component replacement in hot environments.
- Dual frequency ripple performance — Specified ripple current values at 120 Hz and 100 kHz provide clear design targets for both low‑ and high‑frequency applications.
- Space‑efficient package — One rank smaller case than LGU and compact dimensions allow denser PCB layouts without compromising capacitance.
- Snap‑in mounting — Robust through‑hole snap‑in terminals simplify mechanical retention and assembly for power electronics boards.
- RoHS compliance — Meets 2011/65/EU and (EU)2015/863 requirements for restricted substances.
