Overview of LGY1C682MELZ25 – 6800 µF Snap-In Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor, 16 V, 105°C
The LGY1C682MELZ25 from Nichicon is a snap‑in terminal aluminum electrolytic capacitor in the LGY series, rated 6800 µF at 16 V with a 105°C long‑life rating. Designed for demanding industrial applications, this radial can capacitor delivers high ripple handling and extended endurance for systems that require dependable power filtering and energy smoothing.
Key value propositions include long life (5000 hours at 105°C), robust ripple current capability across low and high frequency ranges, and compact snap‑in packaging for board or chassis mounting in production volumes (tray packing, mass production status).
Key Features
- High Capacitance: 6800 µF nominal capacitance provides bulk energy storage and smoothing for power rails and supply filters.
- Rated Voltage: 16 V DC rating suitable for low‑voltage industrial and general‑purpose power applications.
- High Temperature, Long Life: Rated for operation from −40°C to 105°C with endurance of 5000 hours at 105°C under rated ripple conditions.
- Snap‑In Radial Can Package: 22 mm diameter × 25 mm length snap‑in can (radial, can – snap‑in) for secure board or chassis mounting in high‑reliability assemblies.
- Ripple Current Capability: Handles 1800 mA at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 2070 mA at 50 kHz (high frequency), supporting high‑ripple power supply environments.
- Leakage and Loss Characteristics: Leakage current approximately 980 µA and tan δ up to 0.50 (at 120 Hz, 20°C) for the 16 V rating.
- Tolerance and Polarity: ±20% capacitance tolerance and polarized construction consistent with electrolytic capacitor requirements.
- Regulatory Compliance and Production: RoHS compliant; supplied in tray packing and listed as mass production.
Typical Applications
- Industrial Power Supplies: Provides bulk filtering and ripple handling in industrial PSU designs where long‑term reliability at elevated temperatures is required.
- Ballast Applications: Suitable for ballast circuits that demand durable electrolytic capacitance and extended endurance at 105°C.
- General‑Purpose Power Filtering: Used where substantial energy storage and ripple suppression are needed in general‑purpose electronics and power conversion systems.
Unique Advantages
- Extended 105°C Endurance: 5000 hours rated life at 105°C supports deployments in high‑temperature environments and increases maintenance intervals.
- Robust Ripple Performance: Specified ripple currents of 1.8 A (120 Hz) and 2.07 A (50 kHz) enable effective performance across both low and high frequency power stages.
- Compact Snap‑In Form Factor: 22 × 25 mm can with snap‑in terminals simplifies mechanical retention and electrical connection in dense power assemblies.
- Manufacturer and Series Reliability: Part of Nichicon’s LGY long‑life series, designed for dependable operation in industrial applications.
- Production‑Ready Packaging: Tray packing and mass production status support rapid procurement and assembly for volume manufacturing.
