LGU1E682MELA

The LGU1E682MELA is a snap‑in terminal aluminum electrolytic capacitor designed for general‑purpose power applications. It provides 6.8 mF capacitance at a 25 V rating in a radially packaged, snap‑in can optimized for board retention and high ripple handling.

Engineered for elevated operating temperatures, this capacitor is specified for operation from –40°C to +105°C and is rated to withstand 3000 hours of applied rated ripple current at 105°C, making it suitable where sustained thermal and ripple endurance are required.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 6.8 mF capacitance at a 25 V rated voltage for bulk energy storage and decoupling in low‑voltage power rails.
• High‑temperature Endurance — Specified lifetime of 3000 hours at 105°C under rated ripple current, demonstrating long‑term stability in hot environments.
• Rated Ripple Current — 1.91 A at 120 Hz and 2.196 A at 50 kHz, enabling effective ripple absorption across common switching and line frequencies.
• Operating Temperature Range — –40°C to +105°C to accommodate a wide range of ambient conditions.
• Snap‑in Radial Can Package — Snap‑in terminals for secure mounting; package dimensions L: 2.5 × D: 2.5 cm with seated height up to 2.5 cm.
• Polarized Construction — Polar capacitor suitable for DC smoothing and power supply applications; capacitance tolerance ±20%.
• RoHS Compliant — Conforms to the RoHS directives listed in the product information.

Typical Applications

• Power supply filtering — Bulk smoothing and ripple reduction on low‑voltage DC rails where 6.8 mF at 25 V and specified ripple currents are required.
• DC‑DC converters and regulators — Output filtering for converters that demand sustained ripple handling at elevated temperatures.
• Industrial control equipment — Energy buffering and decoupling in control power subsystems operating up to 105°C.
• General‑purpose electronics — Use wherever polarized, high‑temperature, high‑ripple capacitors are needed for reliable DC smoothing.

Unique Advantages

• Designed for sustained high‑temperature operation: Rated to tolerate 3000 hours of rated ripple current at 105°C, supporting reliability in thermally demanding environments.
• Measurable ripple capability: Published ripple current figures at 120 Hz (1.91 A) and 50 kHz (2.196 A) allow designers to size capacitors against real switching and line conditions.
• Secure snap‑in mounting: Snap‑in terminals provide robust mechanical retention for axial load and board stability in assemblies.
• Compact radial can footprint: 2.5 × 2.5 cm package profile conserves board space while delivering substantial capacitance.
• Regulatory compliance: RoHS compliance reduces materials compliance risk for modern electronic products.
• Simple procurement sizing: Clear electrical and mechanical specifications (capacitance, voltage, tolerance, temperature range) streamline part selection and BOM entry.
