LGU2A152MELB

The LGU2A152MELB is a polarized aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a radial, snap‑in can package designed for general purpose electronic applications. It combines a 1.5 mF capacitance with a 100 V rating and is specified for operation across –40 °C to 105 °C.

Built to withstand sustained ripple stress, this part endures 3000 hours of rated ripple current at 105 °C and is RoHS compliant, making it suitable where long endurance and regulatory compliance are required.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 1.5 mF capacitance at a rated voltage of 100 V, with a tolerance of ±20%.
• High‑temperature Endurance — Rated for operation up to 105 °C and guaranteed to withstand 3000 hours of application of rated ripple current at 105 °C.
• Ripple Current Performance — Rated ripple current of 2 A at 120 Hz and 2.3 A at 50 kHz, supporting sustained AC stress in applications within the rated limits.
• Package & Mounting — Radial, snap‑in can package for secure PCB mounting and straightforward board-level installation.
• Operating Range & Polarity — Polarized device for DC applications, specified for –40 °C to 105 °C operation.
• Regulatory Compliance — Compliant with the RoHS directive (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).
• Compact Footprint — Size approximately L: 3 × D: 3 cm for use where a compact snap‑in electrolytic solution is required.

Typical Applications

• General Purpose Electronics — Used where a polarized aluminum electrolytic capacitor is required for bulk capacitance and energy storage in general purpose circuits.
• General Purpose Electronics — Suitable for PCB‑mounted designs that require snap‑in mounting and sustained ripple endurance at elevated temperatures.
