LLG2D222MELC40

The LLG2D222MELC40 from Nichicon is an aluminum electrolytic capacitor in the LLG series featuring a snap-in terminal design. It provides 2.2 mF capacitance at a 200 V rated voltage in a radial, can-type snap-in package and is RoHS compliant.

Designed as one rank smaller than the LLS series, this part is suited for equipment down sizing where high capacitance, reliable snap-in mounting and a compact footprint are required. It is specified for general-purpose use across applications that need bulk capacitance and board-mounted snap-in terminals.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Tolerance — 2.2 mF nominal capacitance with a tolerance of ±20% (measured at 120 Hz, 20°C).
• Rated Voltage — 200 V DC rating for medium-voltage general-purpose applications.
• Package & Mounting — Radial, can-type snap-in terminal package for secure board mounting and mechanical stability.
• Operating Temperature & Lifetime — Specified for operation from −40°C to +85°C with an endurance rating of 2000 hours at 85°C under rated conditions.
• Ripple Current Capability — Rated ripple current 4.18 A at 120 Hz and 6.27 A at 100 kHz to support load ripple and smoothing needs.
• Polarized Design — Polarized electrolytic construction for DC smoothing and bulk energy storage where polarity is observed.
• RoHS Compliance — Conforms to RoHS directive (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).
• Compact Footprint — Smaller case size relative to LLS series to help minimize PCB area while delivering high capacitance; nominal footprint approximately L: 4 × D: 3.5 cm.

Typical Applications

• General-purpose power filtering — Provides bulk capacitance and smoothing in general-purpose electronic equipment where 2.2 mF at 200 V is required.
• Equipment downsizing — One-rank smaller case size than LLS makes this capacitor suitable for designs targeting reduced enclosure and PCB area.
• PCB snap-in assemblies — Snap-in radial can package and provided PC board hole dimensions support secure board-mounted power modules and assemblies.

Unique Advantages

• High bulk capacitance in a compact case — 2.2 mF at 200 V delivers significant energy storage while using a smaller footprint compared to the LLS series.
• Engineered for elevated ripple — Rated ripple currents of 4.18 A (120 Hz) and 6.27 A (100 kHz) help manage AC ripple in power rails and DC link circuits.
• Wide operating temperature range — −40°C to +85°C specification supports deployment across a broad set of ambient conditions.
• Long endurance at rated temperature — 2000 hours at 85°C under rated conditions provides predictable lifetime behavior for design planning.
• RoHS-compliant supply — Complies with EU RoHS requirements for restricted substances.
• Snap-in mounting for secure installation — Radial snap-in terminals provide robust mechanical retention for board-mounted power components.
