Overview of LGU2A102MELZ – Snap-in Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor, 100V 1000µF
The LGU2A102MELZ is a snap-in terminal aluminum electrolytic capacitor designed for general-purpose power applications. It provides 1000µF capacitance at a 100V rating in a compact radial, can-type snap-in package (φ22×30L).
Engineered for sustained operation at elevated temperature, this part delivers long endurance at 105°C and robust ripple-current handling, making it suitable where reliable bulk capacitance and high ripple tolerance are required.
Key Features
- Electrical performance — 1000µF (1 mF) nominal capacitance with ±20% tolerance at 120Hz, 20°C.
- Rated voltage — 100 V DC rating for higher-voltage power subsystems.
- High ripple-current capability — 1.54 A at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 1.771 A at 50 kHz (high frequency).
- Low loss and leakage — tanδ = 0.2 (measured at 20°C, 120 Hz) and 940µA specified leakage current.
- Temperature and endurance — Operating range −40°C to +105°C with 3000 hours rated life at 105°C under specified conditions.
- Package and mounting — Snap-in radial can (φ22×30L), supplied in tray packing; suited for through-hole snap-in mounting.
- RoHS compliant — Meets RoHS requirements for restricted substances.
Typical Applications
- Power supply filtering — Bulk smoothing and decoupling in high-voltage DC rails where 1000µF capacitance and high ripple capability reduce voltage perturbations.
- Industrial power electronics — Energy storage and ripple absorption in power modules and converters operating up to 100 V and elevated temperatures.
- General-purpose electronic equipment — Long-life bulk capacitance for control systems, instrumentation, and other general-purpose designs requiring robust endurance.
Unique Advantages
- Designed for elevated-temperature endurance — Rated for 3000 hours at 105°C, enabling reliable performance in thermally demanding environments.
- Strong ripple-current handling — Specified ripple currents at both low (120 Hz) and high (50 kHz) frequencies support demanding AC stress on DC bus capacitors.
- Low dissipation and controlled leakage — tanδ of 0.2 and specified leakage current help maintain efficiency and predictable behavior in circuits.
- Snap-in radial package — Compact φ22×30L can with snap-in terminations for secure, through-hole mounting and straightforward board placement.
- Production-ready supply — Tray packing and mass production status streamline procurement and assembly for volume designs.
- Regulatory compliance — RoHS-compliant construction for markets requiring restricted-substance conformance.
