LGY2A332MELC40

The LGY2A332MELC40 is an aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a snap‑in terminal, radial can package designed for long life at elevated temperature. It provides 3.3 mF capacitance at a 100 V rating and is polarized for DC applications.

Engineered for industrial power systems and ballast use, this part delivers sustained ripple handling and long‑term endurance — specified for 5000 hours under rated ripple at 105°C — for designs that prioritize reliability and predictable lifetime.

Key Features

• Electrical Performance — 3.3 mF nominal capacitance with tolerance ±20% and a rated voltage of 100 V, suitable for DC filtering and energy storage in power circuits.
• High‑Temperature Long Life — Rated for operation up to 105°C with endurance specified as 5000 hours at 105°C under D.C. bias plus rated ripple current.
• Ripple Current Capability — Specified ripple current of 2.7 A at 120 Hz and 3.105 A at 50 kHz; frequency coefficients of rated ripple current range from 0.88 (50 Hz) to 1.15 (≥1 kHz) for sizing across frequencies.
• Package & Mounting — Snap‑in terminal type in a radial can package for secure PCB mounting; physical size L: 4 × D: 3.5 cm with maximum seated height 1.575 inch.
• Temperature Range — Operational from −40°C to +105°C to cover typical industrial ambient profiles.
• Compliance & Polarity — Polarized electrolytic construction and RoHS compliant (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).

Typical Applications

• Industrial Power Supplies — Bulk smoothing and ripple filtering where long operational life at elevated temperature is required.
• Ballasts — Energy storage and suppression in ballast circuits that demand dependable performance over extended periods.
• General Purpose Power Filtering — DC link and decoupling in general power electronics where a 100 V rated, high‑capacitance solution is needed.
