Overview of LGW2D122MELA50 – 200 V, 1.2 mF Snap‑in Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor
The LGW2D122MELA50 is an aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a snap‑in terminal radial can designed for high ripple current applications. It is rated at 1.2 mF (1200 μF) and 200 V, and specified for operation from −40 °C to 105 °C.
Engineered for general‑purpose use, this capacitor provides sustained performance under continuous ripple loading, including a rated endurance of 3000 hours at 105 °C when subjected to rated ripple current. The product is RoHS compliant.
Key Features
- Capacitance and Voltage — Rated capacitance of 1.2 mF (1200 μF) with a 200 V rated voltage, tolerance ±20%.
- High Ripple Current Endurance — Designed to withstand application of rated ripple current for 3000 hours at 105 °C, supporting sustained high‑stress operation.
- Ripple Current Performance — Specified ripple current of 3.98 A at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 5.97 A at 50 kHz (high frequency).
- Temperature Range — Operating temperature from −40 °C to 105 °C, with endurance validated at the upper operating temperature.
- Package and Mounting — Snap‑in terminal, radial can package (dimensions: L: 5 × D: 2.5 cm) for board‑mount applications.
- Reliability Parameters — Endurance and shelf‑life data provided: capacitance change within ±20% after endurance testing and within ±15% after specified shelf life conditions.
- Regulatory — Compliant with the RoHS directive (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).
Typical Applications
- General Purpose – High‑ripple circuits — Suitable where sustained ripple current handling and elevated temperature endurance are required.
- General Purpose – Power filtering — Applicable for general‑purpose filtering tasks that benefit from the capacitor’s rated voltage and ripple current characteristics.
- General Purpose – Energy storage on boards — Used in board‑level designs needing bulk capacitance in a snap‑in radial can package.
Unique Advantages
- Validated high‑temperature endurance — Withstands 3000 hours of rated ripple current at 105 °C, providing predictable life performance under continuous thermal stress.
- Measured ripple current specs — Explicit low‑ and high‑frequency ripple current ratings (3.98 A at 120 Hz and 5.97 A at 50 kHz) allow selection based on application frequency.
- Wide operating range — Rated for operation from −40 °C to 105 °C to cover elevated temperature environments within the stated limits.
- Board‑mount friendly package — Snap‑in radial can format with documented dimensions (L: 5 × D: 2.5 cm) for repeatable PCB mounting and assembly processes.
- RoHS compliant — Meets RoHS directive requirements for restricted substances.
