LLG2Z561MELZ25

The LLG2Z561MELZ25 is an aluminum electrolytic capacitor in Nichicon’s LLG series, featuring a snap-in radial can termination and polarized construction. It delivers 560 µF at a 180 V rating with specifications intended for general-purpose use and is designed to support equipment downsizing through a smaller-case footprint relative to the LLS series.

This part is RoHS compliant and rated for operation from –40 °C to +85 °C, with a defined 2000-hour endurance at 85 °C under DC bias plus rated ripple current.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 560 µF nominal capacitance with a rated voltage of 180 V and a tolerance of ±20% at 120 Hz, 20 °C.
• Snap-in Radial Can Package — Snap-in terminal mounting for secure board retention and assembly in radial can format.
• Thermal Range & Endurance — Operating temperature range of –40 °C to +85 °C and an endurance rating of 2000 hours at 85 °C with DC bias plus rated ripple current applied.
• Ripple Current Capability — Specified ripple current of 1.8 A at 120 Hz and 2.7 A at 100 kHz for handling AC components on DC rails.
• Polarized Construction — Designed as a polarized aluminum electrolytic capacitor for appropriate DC applications.
• Regulatory Compliance — Compliant with the RoHS directive (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).

Typical Applications

• General-purpose equipment — Suited for a wide range of general-purpose electronic designs where a polarized aluminum electrolytic capacitor is required.
• Equipment downsizing — One rank smaller case size than the LLS series, making it appropriate for designs targeting reduced component footprint.
• Snap-in mounting assemblies — For assemblies that benefit from snap-in radial can terminations for mechanical stability during manufacturing and operation.

Unique Advantages

• Compact form factor — One rank smaller case size than LLS supports smaller equipment layouts and space-constrained designs.
• Clear electrical ratings — 560 µF at 180 V with ±20% tolerance provides straightforward specification matching for power rail requirements.
• Designed for thermal endurance — Rated for 2000 hours at 85 °C under DC bias and ripple, enabling predictable lifetime planning in elevated-temperature environments.
• Measured ripple performance — Specified ripple current values at both 120 Hz and 100 kHz allow designers to evaluate AC stress handling across typical frequencies.
• RoHS compliance — Meets current RoHS requirements, supporting regulatory needs for many commercial and industrial products.
