Overview of LGU1J152MELZ – Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor, Snap‑in, 1500 µF, 63 V
The LGU1J152MELZ is a Nichicon LGU series aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a snap‑in terminal radial can. It provides 1500 µF capacitance at a 63 V rating with a ±20% tolerance and is built for general‑purpose power applications.
Designed for demanding thermal and ripple environments, this part offers a 3000‑hour endurance at 105°C, specified low‑frequency and high‑frequency ripple current ratings, controlled loss (tan δ), and RoHS compliance—making it suitable for volume production and reliable system integration.
Key Features
- Capacitance & Voltage 1.5 mF (1500 µF) rated at 63 V with ±20% tolerance for bulk energy storage and decoupling in power circuits.
- Temperature Range & Endurance Operates from −40°C to +105°C with a 3000‑hour life specification at 105°C under rated ripple current.
- Loss Angle (tan δ) Specified tan δ of 0.25 at 20°C and 120 Hz to characterize dissipation and electrical loss for design margining.
- High Ripple Current Capability Rated ripple current: 1470 mA at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 1690.5 mA at 50 kHz (high frequency) for handling both DC‑link and switching noise.
- Leakage Current Specified leakage current of 920 µA (measured condition provided in product data) to guide standby and leakage budgeting.
- Package & Mounting Radial, snap‑in can (φ22 × 30 mm length) for secure board retention; supplied in tray packing and in mass production status.
- Regulatory Compliance RoHS compliant material construction as stated in the product information.
Typical Applications
- General‑purpose power modules Provides bulk capacitance and energy buffering where a snap‑in 1500 µF, 63 V capacitor is required.
- Power supply filtering Used for smoothing and ripple reduction in DC power rails, leveraging the part’s ripple current ratings and endurance at elevated temperature.
- Industrial and commercial equipment Suitable for designs that require long operational life at up to 105°C and dependable leakage and loss characteristics.
Unique Advantages
- Extended high‑temperature endurance: 3000 hours at 105°C under rated ripple current provides predictable long‑term performance in heat‑stressed applications.
- Dual‑frequency ripple handling: Clear ripple current specifications at 120 Hz and 50 kHz enable designers to assess performance for both low‑frequency and switching environments.
- Measured electrical baselines: Specified tan δ (0.25 at 20°C/120 Hz) and a defined leakage current (920 µA) simplify verification and tolerance planning.
- Secure snap‑in mounting: Radial snap‑in can (φ22×30L) supports robust mechanical retention and streamlined assembly for high‑volume production.
- RoHS compliant and production ready: Material compliance and tray packing support regulatory requirements and manufacturing throughput.
