Overview of LGU2P681MELA – Snap-in Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor, 220V 680µF
The LGU2P681MELA is an aluminum electrolytic, snap-in terminal capacitor rated 220 V and 680 µF, designed for general-purpose applications. It combines high-temperature endurance and elevated ripple-current capability to support demanding power and energy-storage requirements.
Key attributes include a 105°C operating rating, 3,000 hours endurance at 105°C, and snap-in radial can packaging that simplifies board-level installation for high-reliability assemblies.
Key Features
- Capacitance & Voltage — 680 µF nominal capacitance with a 220 V rated voltage and ±20% tolerance, providing bulk energy storage for mid-voltage designs.
- Thermal Endurance — Specified for operation from −40°C to 105°C with endurance of 3,000 hours at 105°C under rated ripple conditions.
- High Ripple Current — Rated ripple current of 1.78 A at low frequency (120 Hz) and 2.67 A at high frequency (50 kHz), supporting significant AC stress on the capacitor.
- Leakage Performance — Leakage current specified at 1160 µA, measured after application of rated voltage per standard test conditions.
- Mounting & Package — Snap-in radial can (φ25 × 45 mm) for secure mechanical retention and simplified insertion into power assemblies; supplied in tray packing for efficient handling.
- Compliance — RoHS-compliant construction for regulatory adherence in applicable markets.
Typical Applications
- General-purpose power equipment — Provides bulk capacitance and ripple handling for general-purpose circuits requiring a 220 V, 680 µF solution.
- Industrial power supplies — Designed for assemblies that need sustained performance at elevated temperatures (up to 105°C) and long endurance.
- Power conversion and filtering — Supports AC ripple duty with specified low- and high-frequency ripple-current ratings to stabilize DC bus and filter outputs.
Unique Advantages
- High-temperature longevity: 3,000 hours rated endurance at 105°C reduces replacement frequency in thermally stressed designs.
- Robust ripple handling: Dual-frequency ripple-current ratings (1.78 A at 120 Hz and 2.67 A at 50 kHz) provide design flexibility across switching and line-frequency applications.
- Snap-in radial package: Secure mechanical mounting and straightforward board insertion help streamline assembly for power modules and enclosures.
- Clear electrical specifications: Defined capacitance, tolerance, leakage current, and polarization simplify BOM selection and validation.
- Production-ready supply: Tray packing and mass production status support volume manufacturing and automated handling.
- Regulatory alignment: RoHS compliance supports deployment in regulated regions and assemblies.
