Overview of LGY2A122MELB25 – Snap‑in 100 V, 1200 µF Aluminum Electrolytic, 105°C Long Life
The LGY2A122MELB25 is a snap‑in terminal aluminum electrolytic capacitor designed for general‑purpose and industrial power applications. It delivers 1200 µF capacitance at a 100 V rating in a compact φ30×25L can, combining high capacitance and secure snap‑in mounting for power assemblies.
Engineered for durability, this part provides long life assurance with endurance at elevated temperature (105°C) and compliance with RoHS, making it suitable for systems that require reliable bulk capacitance and sustained ripple handling.
Key Features
- Capacitance & Voltage — 1.2 mF (1200 µF) rated at 100 V for bulk energy storage and smoothing in high‑voltage DC circuits.
- High‑Temperature Long Life — Qualified for 5000 hours of ripple current application at 105°C, supporting demanding thermal environments.
- Snap‑In Radial Can — Snap‑in terminal mounting provides secure board attachment for power modules and chassis assemblies; package dimension listed as φ30×25L (L: 2.5 × D: 3 cm).
- Ripple Current Capability — Rated ripple current of 1.6 A at 120 Hz and 1.84 A at 50 kHz, enabling effective AC ripple handling across common switching and line frequencies.
- Leakage & Dissipation — Leakage current specified by I ≤ 3√CV (µA) after 5 minutes at 20°C; tangent of loss angle (tan δ) for 100 V is specified (max. 0.20), supporting predictable ESR behavior.
- Wide Operating Temperature — Rated for operation from –40°C to 105°C for compatibility with a broad range of industrial environments.
- RoHS Compliant — Meets RoHS directive requirements for restricted substances.
Typical Applications
- Industrial Power Supplies — Bulk filtering and energy buffering where 100 V rating and long life at 105°C ensure stable DC rail performance under continuous ripple load.
- Ballast Systems — Specified suitability for ballast applications, providing reliable capacitance and endurance in lighting and ballast power circuits.
- General‑Purpose Power Filtering — Use for smoothing, decoupling, and energy storage in assemblies that require a compact 1200 µF, 100 V electrolytic solution with robust mounting.
Unique Advantages
- Long Life Assurance: 5000 hours at 105°C under rated ripple current provides predictable aging and maintenance planning for industrial systems.
- High Voltage & High Capacitance: 100 V rating combined with 1200 µF capacitance enables reduced component count when higher energy storage is required.
- Secure Snap‑In Mounting: Radial, snap‑in can simplifies mechanical retention in power assemblies and improves vibration tolerance compared to loose leaded parts.
- Frequency Versatile Ripple Performance: Specified ripple current at both 120 Hz and 50 kHz lets designers evaluate performance across line and switching frequencies.
- Measured Electrical Limits: Clear leakage current and tan δ specifications (including I ≤ 3√CV after 5 minutes at 20°C) support reliable thermal and electrical system design margins.
- Regulatory Compliance: RoHS status supports deployment in regions and projects requiring restricted substance compliance.
