Overview of LGW2G271MELC25 – 270 µF, 400 V Snap‑In Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor, 105°C

The LGW2G271MELC25 is an aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a radial, snap‑in can package designed for general‑purpose use. It combines a 270 µF capacitance with a 400 V rated voltage and a 105°C operating temperature to deliver stable performance in demanding thermal and ripple environments.

Engineered for applications that require high ripple current handling and long endurance, this RoHS‑compliant snap‑in capacitor supports designs where robust power buffering and long service life at elevated temperature are required.

Key Features

  • Capacitance & Voltage — 270 µF nominal capacitance with a 400 V rated voltage and a tolerance of −20% to +20%.
  • High Ripple Current — Specified ripple current of 2.12 A at 120 Hz and 3.032 A at 50 kHz, supporting heavy AC stress conditions.
  • High Temperature Endurance — Rated for operation up to 105°C with a guaranteed lifetime of 3000 hours at 105°C under rated ripple conditions.
  • Package & Mounting — Radial, snap‑in can package for secure snap‑in PCB mounting and mechanical stability.
  • Operating Range — Continuous operating temperature range of −25°C to +105°C as specified for the 400 V version.
  • Polarized Design — Polarized aluminum electrolytic construction for DC energy storage and smoothing applications.
  • RoHS Compliant — Conforms to RoHS directive requirements.
  • Compact Footprint — Physical size L: 2.5 × D: 3.5 cm, suitable for assemblies that require a snap‑in radial can form factor.

Typical Applications

  • General Purpose — Suited for general‑purpose circuits needing 270 µF/400 V capacitance with high ripple capability and 105°C rating.
  • Power Filtering — Used where high ripple current handling and DC smoothing at elevated temperatures are required.
  • Energy Buffering — Employed in designs that require polarized energy storage with reliable endurance under rated ripple current.

Unique Advantages

  • High ripple tolerance: Rated ripple currents at 120 Hz and 50 kHz provide measurable performance data for designs exposed to AC stress.
  • Extended high‑temperature life: 3000 hours endurance at 105°C under rated ripple current supports long service intervals in thermally demanding installations.
  • Snap‑in mounting: Radial snap‑in package simplifies board assembly and provides robust mechanical retention.
  • Clear electrical envelope: 270 µF at 400 V with specified tolerance and polarization simplifies selection and integration into DC energy storage and filtering circuits.
  • Regulatory compliance: RoHS compliance supports use in regions and products requiring restricted‑substance conformance.
