Overview of LGU2G101MELZ – Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor, Snap-in, 105°C

The LGU2G101MELZ is a Nichicon LGU series aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a snap‑in, radial can package designed for general-purpose power applications. It provides 100 µF capacitance at a 400 V rating, polarized construction, and is qualified for continuous operation up to 105°C with a 3000‑hour endurance at rated ripple current.

Engineered for board-level power filtering and energy-storage roles, this snap‑in capacitor delivers specified ripple-current capability and RoHS compliance for industrial and electronic equipment designs that require high-voltage, high-temperature electrolytic components.

Key Features

  • Capacitance & Voltage — 100 µF nominal capacitance rated at 400 V for high-voltage smoothing and energy storage.
  • High‑temperature Endurance — Specified lifetime of 3000 hours at 105°C under rated ripple conditions, supporting elevated operating temperatures.
  • Ripple Current Performance — Rated ripple current of 700 mA at 120 Hz and 1.001 A at 50 kHz, enabling sustained AC ripple handling in power circuits.
  • Polarized Snap‑in Package — Polarized aluminum electrolytic in a radial, snap‑in can for secure, board‑level mounting and robust mechanical retention.
  • Operating Temperature Range — Specified for operation from −25°C to 105°C, suitable for many industrial and electronic environments.
  • Capacitance Tolerance — ±20% tolerance at 120 Hz, 20°C for predictable design margins.
  • Regulatory Compliance — RoHS compliant (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863), supporting restricted‑substance requirements.
  • Compact Dimensions — Physical size L: 3 × D: 2.2 cm in a snap‑in radial can form factor for dense power assemblies.

Typical Applications

  • General‑purpose power supply filtering — Uses include smoothing and bulk decoupling where 400 V rating and 100 µF capacitance are required.
  • High‑voltage DC link support — Suitable for energy‑storage and ripple mitigation in high‑voltage circuits within the specified temperature and ripple limits.
  • Industrial electronics — Applicable in equipment that benefits from a snap‑in, board‑mounted electrolytic with 105°C endurance.

Unique Advantages

  • Rated for elevated temperatures: 3000‑hour endurance at 105°C ensures sustained performance in hot operating environments.
  • High voltage capability: 400 V rating provides margin for high‑voltage power rails and DC bus applications.
  • Robust ripple handling: Specified ripple currents at both low and high frequencies support a range of switching and line‑frequency applications.
  • Secure board mounting: Snap‑in radial can package affords reliable mechanical retention for through‑hole assemblies.
  • Regulatory alignment: RoHS compliance simplifies inclusion in products aimed at restricted‑substance conformity.

Why Choose LGU2G101MELZ?

LGU2G101MELZ positions itself as a practical, high‑voltage electrolytic solution for designers who need 100 µF at 400 V in a snap‑in, board‑mounted format. Its 105°C endurance and defined ripple‑current ratings make it suitable for demanding power applications where thermal robustness and reliable ripple performance are required.

This part is a strong fit for engineers specifying general‑purpose high‑voltage capacitors in industrial and electronic equipment designs that require predictable lifetime behavior, RoHS compliance, and a compact radial can form factor.
