LGU1K562MELC

The LGU1K562MELC is a Nichicon LGU series snap‑in aluminum electrolytic capacitor designed for general‑purpose power applications. It provides 5.6 mF capacitance at an 80 V rating in a compact φ35 × 40 mm can with snap‑in terminals.

Engineered for demanding thermal and ripple conditions, this part delivers specified ripple performance and a 3000‑hour endurance at 105°C, making it suitable where high ripple handling, long life, and RoHS compliance are required.

Key Features

• Capacitance and Voltage — 5.6 mF (5600 µF) nominal capacitance with an 80 V rated voltage and ±20% tolerance, providing bulk energy storage in a single, compact component.
• High Ripple Handling — Rated low‑frequency ripple current of 3.87 A at 120 Hz and high‑frequency ripple current of 4.45 A at 50 kHz, specified for robust AC ripple performance.
• Endurance at Elevated Temperature — Specified to withstand 3000 hours of rated ripple current at 105°C, with performance criteria for capacitance, tan δ and leakage current after the endurance test.
• Loss Characteristics — Tangent of loss angle (tan δ) specified at 0.20 (measured at 20°C, 120 Hz), enabling predictable dissipation characteristics under typical test conditions.
• Wide Operating Temperature Range — Rated for operation from −40°C to +105°C, supporting a broad set of thermal environments.
• Package and Mounting — Snap‑in terminal radial can (φ35 × 40 mm), tray packing for board‑level assembly and handling; polarization is specified.
• Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 2000 µA, measured under standard conditions as defined in the datasheet.
• Regulatory Compliance — RoHS compliant as stated in the product information.

Typical Applications

• General‑Purpose Power Electronics — Bulk smoothing and energy storage where an 80 V, 5600 µF capacitor with high ripple capability is required.
• Industrial Power Supplies — Use in power supply rails that demand sustained ripple endurance at elevated temperatures (3000 h at 105°C).
• High‑Frequency Filtering — Applications requiring specified high‑frequency ripple performance (4.45 A at 50 kHz) in a snap‑in radial can package.

Unique Advantages

• Designed for sustained ripple duty — Rated ripple currents and 3000‑hour endurance at 105°C provide predictable lifetime behavior under continuous ripple stress.
• Compact, serviceable package — φ35 × 40 mm snap‑in can offers a balance of capacitance and board‑level mounting convenience for power assemblies.
• Measured loss performance — tan δ specified at 0.20 (20°C, 120 Hz) for consistent dissipation characteristics in design calculations.
• Wide operating temperature span — −40°C to +105°C rating covers a broad set of deployment environments without implicit qualification changes.
• RoHS compliant — Meets RoHS directive requirements noted in the product information for regulatory conformity.
• Mass production availability — Listed status indicates the part is in mass production for supply continuity.
