Overview of LGU2Z561MELZ – Snap‑in Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor, 180 V / 560 µF
The LGU2Z561MELZ is a Nichicon snap‑in terminal aluminum electrolytic capacitor designed for general‑purpose power applications. It combines a 560 µF capacitance with a 180 V rated voltage and a compact φ22 × 40 mm can in a radial, snap‑in package.
Designed for elevated operating conditions, this part delivers a 105°C rated temperature, long endurance and high ripple handling for board‑level power filtering and bulk energy storage in industrial and commercial equipment.
Key Features
- Capacitance & Voltage — 560 µF nominal capacitance with a 180 V rated voltage and ±20% tolerance for stable bulk energy storage and filtering.
- High Temperature Endurance — Rated for operation from −40°C to +105°C with a 3000‑hour endurance at 105°C under rated ripple conditions.
- Low Loss — tan δ = 0.15 (measured at 20°C, 120 Hz), supporting efficient AC performance at the specified voltage.
- High Ripple Current Capability — 1.67 A at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 2.505 A at 50 kHz (high frequency) to handle pulsating loads and reduce thermal stress in power circuits.
- Leakage Current — Typical leakage current specified at 950 µA (after voltage application at 20°C), enabling predictable bias behavior.
- Package & Mounting — φ22 × 40 mm radial can with snap‑in terminals for secure board retention; supplied in tray packing for production assembly.
- Compliance & Availability — RoHS compliant and listed as mass production status from Nichicon.
- Polarized Design — Polarized capacitor suitable for DC applications requiring a defined polarity.
Typical Applications
- General‑purpose power filtering — Bulk smoothing and decoupling in power supplies and ancillary power rails where 180 V and 560 µF are required.
- Industrial power equipment — Use in assemblies that demand 105°C operation and extended endurance under rated ripple current.
- Board‑level bulk storage — Snap‑in mounting provides secure mechanical retention for high‑energy circuits on printed circuit boards.
Unique Advantages
- Rated for high operating temperature: 105°C rating combined with 3000 hours endurance provides predictable long‑term behavior under elevated thermal stress.
- High ripple handling: Specified low‑ and high‑frequency ripple currents (1.67 A @ 120 Hz, 2.505 A @ 50 kHz) reduce internal heating in demanding power applications.
- Compact, board‑mountable form factor: φ22 × 40 mm radial can with snap‑in terminals simplifies PCB assembly while delivering substantial capacitance per volume.
- Measured loss and leakage characteristics: tan δ = 0.15 at 20°C/120 Hz and 950 µA leakage current support predictable AC and DC performance.
- Production readiness: Tray packing and mass production status make the part suitable for volume manufacturing and supply chain planning.
- Regulatory compliance: RoHS compliant for use in environments requiring restricted‑substance adherence.
