Overview of LGU1V472MELA – 4700µF 35V Snap‑in Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor
The LGU1V472MELA is an aluminum electrolytic, snap‑in terminal capacitor with a rated capacitance of 4700µF (4.7 mF) and a rated voltage of 35 V. It is a polarized, radial can (snap‑in) package designed for general‑purpose electronic applications.
Engineered for sustained operation up to 105°C with a 3000‑hour endurance rating, this part delivers measurable ripple handling, controlled loss (tan δ), and low leakage current for use where robust bulk capacitance and long life are required.
Key Features
- Capacitance & Voltage — 4700µF (4.7 mF) nominal capacitance at a 35 V rated voltage with ±20% tolerance, suitable for high‑capacitance bulk applications within the rated voltage.
- Package & Mounting — Snap‑in terminal, radial can package in a φ25 × 25 mm (2.5 × 2.5 cm) form factor for secure board retention and straightforward assembly.
- High Temperature Endurance — Specified 3000 hours at 105°C under rated ripple conditions, providing extended operational life in elevated ambient temperatures.
- Ripple Current Capability — Rated ripple current of 1.78 A at 120 Hz and 2.047 A at 50 kHz, enabling effective AC ripple handling across typical supply frequencies.
- Electrical Loss & Leakage — Specified tan δ of 0.35 (max.) at 20°C and 120 Hz and a measured leakage current of 1210 µA, for predictable dissipation and low standby loss.
- Operating Range & Compliance — Operating temperature range −40°C to +105°C; RoHS‑compliant construction.
- Production & Packaging — Tray packing and mass production status for predictable supply and scalable procurement.
Typical Applications
- General‑purpose electronic equipment — Provides bulk capacitance and energy storage where a polarized aluminum electrolytic is specified, using the 4700µF / 35 V rating to match system voltage and capacitance needs.
- Power supply smoothing — Handles AC ripple currents (1.78 A at 120 Hz; 2.047 A at 50 kHz) for smoothing and decoupling in power stages operating up to 35 V.
- Industrial and commercial assemblies — Endurance of 3000 hours at 105°C supports longer life in higher‑temperature installations that require reliable bulk capacitance.
Unique Advantages
- Long high‑temperature life — 3000‑hour endurance at 105°C reduces replacement frequency in elevated‑temperature environments and supports predictable maintenance cycles.
- High ripple tolerance — Distinct low‑ and high‑frequency ripple current specifications (1.78 A at 120 Hz; 2.047 A at 50 kHz) let designers size capacitance for both line‑frequency and switching applications.
- Compact snap‑in form — φ25 × 25 mm radial can with snap‑in terminals provides a space‑efficient solution with secure PCB mounting for high‑capacitance needs.
- Measurable loss and leakage characteristics — Specified tan δ and leakage current enable predictable thermal and standby behavior in power designs.
- RoHS compliance and production readiness — Conforms to RoHS and is available in tray packing as a mass‑production part for consistent supply chain integration.
