Overview of LGR2W121MELB30 – 120 µF, 450 V Snap-in Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor (105°C, Long Life)
The LGR2W121MELB30 is a snap-in terminal aluminum electrolytic capacitor designed for general-purpose use. It combines a 120 µF capacitance with a 450 V rating in a radial, can-style snap-in package intended for robust, high-voltage applications.
Engineered for long-life operation, this part is specified for 10,000 hours at 105°C and is RoHS compliant—delivering durable high-temperature performance with mounting convenience for PCB assembly.
Key Features
- Electrical Performance — 120 µF nominal capacitance with ±20% tolerance and polarization specified for applications requiring a high-voltage electrolytic solution at 450 V.
- High Voltage Rating — 450 V rated voltage suitable for circuits that require elevated DC voltage capability.
- Thermal and Long-Life Assurance — Operating temperature range of −25°C to +105°C with endurance guaranteed for 10,000 hours at 105°C under rated ripple conditions.
- Ripple Handling — Rated ripple currents of 720 mA at 120 Hz and 1.03 A at 50 kHz provide defined AC performance across low and high frequencies.
- Leakage and Dissipation Characteristics — Leakage current defined by I ≤ 3√CV (μA) after 5 minutes at 20°C; tan δ maximum 0.20 at the 450 V rating (measured at 120 Hz, 20°C).
- Mounting and Package — Snap-in terminal, radial can package for secure PCB installation; physical size approximately L: 3 × D: 3 cm with seated height up to 1.181 inch.
- Compliance — RoHS compliant as specified in the product information.
