LGU1K562MELB

The LGU1K562MELB is a snap‑in terminal aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon’s LGU series. It provides 5.6 mF (5600 µF) capacitance at an 80 V rated voltage in a radial, snap‑in can package designed for general‑purpose applications.

Designed for demanding thermal and ripple environments, this part combines high bulk capacitance, specified ripple current at multiple frequencies, and 3000 hours of endurance at 105°C for sustained performance in power electronics designs.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 5.6 mF (5600 µF) rated at 80 V with ±20% tolerance (measured at 20°C, 120 Hz).
• Endurance & Temperature Range — Rated for 3000 hours at 105°C; operating temperature range −40°C to +105°C.
• Ripple Current Capability — Low‑frequency ripple current 3.8 A at 120 Hz and high‑frequency ripple current 4.37 A at 50 kHz.
• Leakage & Loss — Leakage current specified as 2000 µA (measured after rated voltage application at 20°C); tangent of loss angle (tan δ) per LGU series specifications (0.20 max for 80 V rating at 120 Hz, 20°C).
• Package & Mounting — Radial, can type with snap‑in terminals; physical size φ30 × 50 mm (L: 50 mm × D: 30 mm); tray packing for production handling.
• Compliance & Production Status — RoHS compliant and in mass production; sleeve marking printed in white on black as per series specification.

Typical Applications

• General‑purpose power circuits — Bulk capacitance and 80 V rating suitable for smoothing and energy storage in general‑purpose power designs.
• Ripple suppression — Specified low‑ and high‑frequency ripple current ratings support applications that require continuous ripple handling at both 120 Hz and higher frequencies.
• High‑temperature environments — 3000‑hour endurance at 105°C for designs that operate continuously at elevated temperatures.

Unique Advantages

• High bulk capacitance in a compact can — 5600 µF in a φ30 × 50 mm package provides significant energy storage where board space is constrained.
• Proven thermal endurance — Rated to withstand 3000 hours of rated ripple current at 105°C, supporting long‑term operation under heat stress.
• Dual‑frequency ripple specification — Explicit ripple current ratings at 120 Hz and 50 kHz allow designers to evaluate performance across typical low and high frequency conditions.
• Snap‑in mounting for robust PCB retention — Snap‑in terminals and radial can construction simplify mechanical retention and assembly for power modules.
• Manufacturing friendly packaging — Supplied in tray packing to support production handling and inventory control.
• Regulatory compliance — RoHS compliant to meet environmental requirements.
