LGY1J222MELZ35

The LGY1J222MELZ35 is an aluminum electrolytic capacitor in Nichicon’s LGY snap‑in terminal series, designed for long life and reliable performance in demanding power applications. It provides 2200 µF capacitance at a 63 V rating with snap‑in radial can mounting for secure PCB retention.

Engineered for industrial power supplies, ballast applications and general‑purpose power filtering, this part offers a 105°C long‑life assurance (5,000 hours) combined with robust ripple handling and a wide −40°C to 105°C operating range.

Key Features

• Capacitance & tolerance: 2.2 mF (2200 µF) with ±20% tolerance at 120 Hz, 20°C.
• Rated voltage: 63 V DC.
• 105°C long life assurance: Endurance specified for 5,000 hours at 105°C with DC bias plus rated ripple current; capacitance change and other endurance limits are defined by the LGY series specifications.
• High ripple current capability: 1.8 A at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 2.07 A at 50 kHz (high frequency) to support power conversion and filtering duties.
• Leakage current: Specified leakage current of 1110 µA.
• Mounting & package: Snap‑in terminal, radial can (φ22 × 35 mm) for secure snap‑in PCB mounting; tray packing for production handling.
• Operating temperature range: −40°C to +105°C for high‑temperature operation.
• Regulatory compliance: RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• Industrial power supplies — Bulk energy storage and smoothing where sustained ripple and elevated operating temperatures are common.
• Ballasts — Designed for use in ballast circuits as noted for the LGY series, providing long‑term stability under ripple stress.
• High‑temperature power electronics — Suitable for power modules and converters operating up to 105°C with long life requirements.
• General‑purpose filtering and decoupling — Bulk capacitance for smoothing, energy buffering, and decoupling in a wide range of electronic equipment.

Unique Advantages

• Long‑term reliability: 5,000‑hour endurance at 105°C supports designs that require sustained high‑temperature operation and predictable aging behavior.
• Strong ripple handling: Rated ripple currents of 1.8 A (120 Hz) and 2.07 A (50 kHz) reduce heating and improve life in high‑ripple environments.
• Secure mechanical mounting: Snap‑in radial can provides robust PCB retention for production and field reliability.
• Wide operating temperature: −40°C to +105°C enables use across a broad range of environmental conditions.
• Compact footprint: φ22 × 35 mm size balances bulk capacitance with space‑conscious designs.
• RoHS compliant: Meets regulatory requirements for lead‑free assemblies.
