LLG2C681MELZ30

The LLG2C681MELZ30 is a snap‑in terminal aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon's LLG series. It delivers 680 µF capacitance at a 160 V rating in a compact snap‑in can designed to support equipment downsizing while maintaining robust power handling.

Engineered for general‑purpose power applications, this polarized capacitor combines high ripple capability, RoHS compliance, and 2,000‑hour endurance at 85°C for reliable performance in constrained designs and mid‑voltage power systems.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 680 µF nominal capacitance rated at 160 V for mid‑voltage bulk energy storage and filtering.
• Compact Snap‑In Package — Radial snap‑in can construction (φ22 × 30 mm) provides secure PCB mounting and supports compact board layouts; designed one rank smaller than the LLS series for equipment downsizing.
• Ripple Current Handling — Rated ripple current of 2.5 A (120 Hz) and 3.75 A (100 kHz) to support smoothing and decoupling under significant AC stress.
• Temperature & Endurance — Operating range −40°C to +85°C with a specified endurance of 2000 hours at 85°C under rated ripple and DC bias.
• Leakage & Tolerance — Capacitance tolerance ±20% and typical leakage current of approximately 0.98 mA (after standard initial application conditions).
• Compliance — RoHS compliant (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863), suitable for designs requiring restricted‑substance conformity.

Typical Applications

• General‑purpose power supplies — Bulk filtering and energy storage in mid‑voltage supply rails where compact size and high ripple capability are required.
• Equipment downsizing projects — Ideal when designers need a smaller case option versus the LLS family while retaining similar electrical performance.
• Industrial and commercial electronics — Decoupling and smoothing in control modules and power conversion stages that operate within −40°C to +85°C.

Unique Advantages

• Smaller case footprint: One rank smaller than LLS, enabling reduced board space and enclosure volume without sacrificing capacitance.
• High ripple capability: 2.5 A at 120 Hz and 3.75 A at 100 kHz support demanding AC loading and improve voltage stability.
• Designed for durability: 2000 hours endurance at 85°C under rated conditions provides predictable long‑term behavior in elevated environments.
• Secure snap‑in mounting: Radial snap‑in can construction ensures reliable mechanical retention for through‑hole assemblies.
• Regulatory readiness: RoHS compliance facilitates use in regulated markets and helps meet environmental requirements.
