Overview of LGU1H272MELZ – Aluminum Electrolytic Snap‑In Capacitor, 50V 2700µF
The LGU1H272MELZ is an aluminum electrolytic, snap‑in terminal capacitor in Nichicon’s LGU series built for general‑purpose electronic applications. It delivers 2.7 mF (2700 µF) capacitance at a 50 V rating in a compact φ22×30L can with ±20% tolerance.
Designed for robust power handling and long life, this part offers high ripple current capability, a 3000‑hour endurance at 105 °C, low leakage, and RoHS compliance—making it suitable where sustained performance at elevated temperature and reliable bulk capacitance are required.
Key Features
- Capacitance & Voltage — 2.7 mF (2700 µF) nominal capacitance rated at 50 V with ±20% tolerance.
- High ripple current capability — 1.7 A at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 1.955 A at 50 kHz (high frequency), supporting heavy AC ripple loads.
- Low leakage — 1100 µA specified leakage current for predictable stand‑by and bias behavior.
- Dissipation factor — tanδ 0.3 (DF) measured at 20 °C and 120 Hz to characterize AC loss.
- Wide operating temperature and endurance — –40 °C to +105 °C operating range with 3000 hours rated life at 105 °C under specified ripple conditions.
- Snap‑in terminal, radial can package — φ22×30L can with snap‑in mounting for secure mechanical retention and board assembly; tray packing and mass production availability.
- Regulatory compliance — RoHS‑compliant construction.
Typical Applications
- General purpose circuits — Bulk capacitance and energy storage where a 50 V, 2700 µF snap‑in capacitor is required.
- High‑temperature environments — Circuits requiring continuous operation up to 105 °C with specified ripple handling and 3000‑hour endurance.
- Power electronics assemblies — Applications that need sustained ripple current handling and low leakage in a compact radial can package.
Unique Advantages
- High ripple tolerance: Specified 1.7 A (120 Hz) and 1.955 A (50 kHz) ripple current ratings support sustained AC loading without premature degradation.
- Long high‑temperature life: 3000‑hour endurance at 105 °C ensures predictable performance in elevated‑temperature applications.
- Compact, board‑friendly package: φ22×30L snap‑in can provides a space‑efficient form factor with secure snap‑in mounting for assembly.
- Predictable electrical behavior: Defined tanδ (0.3 at 20 °C/120 Hz) and ±20% capacitance tolerance support reliable circuit design and selection.
- Low standby loss: 1100 µA leakage current supports stable biasing and lower quiescent losses.
- RoHS compliance: Meets RoHS requirements for restricted substances.
