LLG2C392MELC50

The LLG2C392MELC50 is a Nichicon LLG-series aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a snap‑in terminal radial can. It delivers 3.9 mF (3900 µF) capacitance at a 160 V rating in a compact φ35 × 50 mm package designed for mass production and tray packing.

Designed for general‑purpose use and equipment downsizing, this polarized capacitor combines high capacitance and a 160 V rating with robust ripple handling and an operating temperature range of −40 °C to +85 °C.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 3.9 mF (3900 µF) rated at 160 V for bulk energy storage and decoupling in higher‑voltage circuits.
• Snap‑in Radial Can Package — Snap‑in terminal type (radial, can) for secure chassis or PCB mounting and fast assembly in tray packing for mass production.
• Temperature Range & Endurance — Operating range −40 °C to +85 °C with endurance specified as 2000 hours at 85 °C under D.C. bias plus rated ripple current.
• Ripple Current Performance — Rated ripple current of 6 A at 120 Hz and 9 A at 100 kHz to support smoothing and filtering under varying frequency conditions.
• Leakage and Loss Characteristics — Leakage current specified by I ≤ 3√CV (µA) after 5 minutes at 20 °C; tangent of loss angle (tan δ) max 0.15 for 160 V ratings.
• Low‑Temperature Stability — Impedance stability at low temperature: Z(−25 °C)/Z(+20 °C) ≤ 4 for the 160 V range, supporting performance in colder environments.
• Polarized, ±20% Tolerance — Polar capacitor with capacitance tolerance of −20% to +20% (measured at 120 Hz, 20 °C).
• RoHS Compliant — Meets RoHS directives as indicated for the LLG series.

Typical Applications

• General‑purpose power reservoirs — Bulk energy storage and smoothing in higher‑voltage circuits where a 160 V rated electrolytic is required.
• Equipment downsizing — Smaller‑sized LLG series design helps reduce overall case footprint while maintaining high capacitance.
• High‑ripple environments — Applications that require strong ripple handling up to 6 A (120 Hz) and 9 A (100 kHz) benefit from this part’s rated ripple currents.
• Snap‑in chassis or PCB mounting — Secure snap‑in mounting for assemblies manufactured in tray packing and intended for volume production.

Unique Advantages

• High capacitance at elevated voltage: 3.9 mF at 160 V provides substantial energy storage in a compact φ35 × 50 mm can for higher‑voltage designs.
• Designed for downsized equipment: LLG family is one rank smaller than LLS, enabling reduced enclosure size without sacrificing capacitance.
• Robust ripple capability: Rated ripple currents of 6 A (120 Hz) and 9 A (100 kHz) help maintain performance under varying load frequencies.
• Proven endurance: Endurance characterized to meet specified limits after 2000 hours at 85 °C under D.C. bias plus rated ripple current, supporting predictable long‑term behavior.
• Measured electrical limits: Clear leakage current and tan δ limits (I ≤ 3√CV µA; tan δ max 0.15) make electrical acceptance and qualification straightforward.
• Production‑friendly packaging: Tray packing and snap‑in terminals facilitate automated handling and high‑volume assembly processes.
