LGU1V822MELZ

The LGU1V822MELZ from Nichicon is an aluminum electrolytic capacitor in the LGU snap-in terminal series, offering 8,200 µF capacitance at a 35 V rated voltage. It is designed for general-purpose power applications that require high capacitance, robust ripple-current handling and long-term operation at elevated temperatures.

As a polarized, snap-in can-type capacitor with tray packing and RoHS compliance, this part targets designs needing reliable bulk smoothing, energy storage and sustained ripple endurance in environments up to 105°C.

Key Features

• Capacitance & tolerance — 8,200 µF nominal capacitance with ±20% tolerance (measured at 120 Hz, 20°C), suitable for bulk filtering and decoupling.
• Rated voltage — 35 V DC rated voltage for medium-voltage power rails.
• Ripple-current performance — Low-frequency ripple current 2.85 A at 120 Hz and high-frequency ripple current 3.2775 A at 50 kHz, enabling effective handling of both line-frequency and switching ripple.
• Loss and leakage — tanδ (DF) 0.35 (measured at 20°C, 120 Hz) and leakage current specified at 1,600 µA, providing defined AC loss and DC leakage characteristics for circuit design.
• High-temperature endurance — Rated for operation from −40°C to +105°C with an endurance of 3,000 hours at 105°C under rated ripple current and DC bias.
• Mechanical & packaging — Snap-in terminal, radial can (φ22 × 50L / L: 5.0 cm × D: 2.2 cm) packaged in trays for efficient handling and assembly.
• Compliance — RoHS compliant; manufactured as part of Nichicon’s LGU series.

Typical Applications

• General-purpose power filtering — Bulk smoothing and decoupling on DC power rails where 8,200 µF and 35 V are needed to reduce output ripple.
• High-ripple current circuits — Circuits subject to significant low- and high-frequency ripple benefit from the specified 2.85 A (120 Hz) and 3.2775 A (50 kHz) ripple-current ratings.
• Elevated-temperature environments — Systems requiring sustained performance at up to 105°C can leverage the 3,000-hour endurance rating under rated conditions.

Unique Advantages

• High capacitance in a compact snap-in package: 8,200 µF in a φ22 × 50L can provides substantial bulk storage while supporting snap-in PCB mounting.
• Clear ripple-current specifications: Separate low- and high-frequency ripple current ratings allow designers to size capacitors precisely for both line-frequency and switching applications.
• Designed for long life at temperature: Endurance proven for 3,000 hours at 105°C under rated ripple current, enabling predictable long-term performance in hot operating conditions.
• Defined electrical loss and leakage: tanδ 0.35 (120 Hz, 20°C) and specified leakage current (1,600 µA) give designers measurable parameters for thermal and bias budgeting.
• RoHS compliant and mass-production available: Conforms to RoHS with production status suited to volume deployment and supply continuity.
