LLG2Z821MELZ35

The LLG2Z821MELZ35 is an aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon's LLG series featuring a snap-in terminal format and a rated capacitance of 820 µF at 180 V. It is designed as a smaller-sized, snap-in can option—one rank smaller than the LLS series—making it suitable for designs where board- or chassis-space reduction is a priority.

Targeted for general-purpose applications, this capacitor delivers a defined ripple-handling capability and a qualified operational envelope up to 85°C, with RoHS compliance for regulatory alignment.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Rated Voltage — 820 µF nominal capacitance with a 180 V rated voltage for mid‑range DC bus and general-purpose energy storage requirements.
• Tolerance — Capacitance tolerance of ±20% at 120 Hz, 20°C for predictable filtering and bulk storage behavior.
• Package & Mounting — Radial, can-style snap-in package with snap-in terminals for secure board mounting and simplified assembly.
• Compact Footprint — One rank smaller case size than the LLS series, suited for equipment downsizing where space is constrained.
• Operating Temperature — Rated for –40°C to +85°C operation (category temperature range documented in the LLG series).
• Endurance — Specified lifetime of 2000 hours at 85°C under rated conditions, with defined post‑test limits for capacitance change, tan δ, and leakage current.
• Ripple Current Capability — Rated ripple current of 2.45 A at 120 Hz and 3.675 A at 100 kHz to support AC ripple handling requirements in power circuits.
• Leakage Current Specification — Leakage current defined by I ≤ 3√(C·V) (µA) after 5 minutes’ application of rated voltage at 20°C, enabling predictable DC leakage behavior.
• Regulatory Compliance — Compliant to the RoHS directive (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).

Typical Applications

• General-purpose power filtering — Bulk capacitance for smoothing and energy storage in DC supply rails requiring 820 µF at 180 V.
• Equipment downsizing — The smaller-case LLG form factor supports reduced enclosure and PCB area in space-constrained designs.
• General-purpose industrial electronics — Use where defined ripple current handling and a 2000-hour endurance at 85°C are needed for reliable operation.

Unique Advantages

• Smaller case, same functionality: One rank smaller than LLS allows designers to reduce component footprint without changing capacitor family or basic performance characteristics.
• Clear electrical limits: Specified capacitance, tolerance, rated voltage, ripple currents, and leakage-current formula enable straightforward design verification and calculations.
• Robust snap-in mounting: Radial snap-in terminals provide mechanical stability for through-hole assemblies and can simplify assembly in high-vibration environments.
• Temperature- and endurance-rated: Operation from –40°C to +85°C with a 2000-hour endurance rating at 85°C supports predictable lifetime behavior under rated stress conditions.
• Regulatory alignment: RoHS compliance helps meet regulatory requirements for commercial and industrial products.
