Overview of LGU1H562MELZ – Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor, Snap‑in, 50 V, 5600 µF, 105°C
The LGU1H562MELZ is a snap‑in terminal aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon's LGU series. It provides 5.6 mF (5600 µF) capacitance at a 50 V rating in a radial snap‑in can designed for general‑purpose power applications. Built for elevated operating temperatures, this part supports continuous operation to 105°C with defined endurance and ripple performance.
Key Features
- Capacitance & Voltage — 5.6 mF (5600 µF) nominal capacitance with a 50 V rated voltage and ±20% tolerance for bulk energy storage and decoupling.
- High‑Temperature Endurance — Rated for operation from −40°C to 105°C with a specified life of 3000 hours at 105°C under rated conditions.
- Snap‑in Mounting — Snap‑in terminal, radial can package (φ22 × 50 mm) for secure PCB mounting and mechanical stability in power assemblies. Packaging is tray packing.
- Ripple Current Capability — Low‑frequency ripple current of 2.89 A at 120 Hz and high‑frequency ripple current of 3.324 A at 50 kHz to support pulsed and continuous ripple environments.
- Loss and Leakage — Tangent of loss angle (tan δ) of 0.30 (measured at 20°C, 120 Hz) and a specified leakage current of 1580 µA, providing predictable AC loss and DC leakage characteristics.
- Reliability & Compliance — Designed to meet the LGU series endurance criteria (3000 hours at 105°C) and is RoHS compliant. Mass production status ensures availability.
Typical Applications
- General‑purpose power supplies — Bulk smoothing and decoupling where 50 V rated capacitance and high ripple capability are required.
- Industrial power equipment — Energy storage and filtering in assemblies that operate up to 105°C and require durable snap‑in mounting.
- Power conversion modules — DC link and bulk capacitor roles where defined ripple current ratings (120 Hz and 50 kHz) and long endurance are important.
Unique Advantages
- High ripple handling: Specified ripple currents of 2.89 A (120 Hz) and 3.324 A (50 kHz) support robust performance under AC stress and switching environments.
- Extended high‑temperature life: Endurance of 3000 hours at 105°C provides predictable long‑term behavior in elevated temperature applications.
- Compact snap‑in form factor: φ22 × 50 mm radial snap‑in can combines substantial capacitance with a mounting style that simplifies PCB retention and assembly.
- Measured dissipation and leakage: tan δ = 0.30 (20°C, 120 Hz) and leakage current = 1580 µA provide quantifiable electrical characteristics for design margins and thermal planning.
- RoHS compliant & production ready: RoHS compliance and mass production status help streamline procurement and regulatory requirements.
