LLS1C333MELB

The LLS1C333MELB is a Nichicon LLS-series aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a snap-in radial can package designed for general-purpose power applications. It delivers 33 mF capacitance at a 16 V rating, polarized construction, and is built to withstand sustained ripple current at elevated temperature.

Engineered for reliability in standard 85°C environments, this part is specified to endure 3000 hours of rated ripple current at 85°C and is RoHS compliant for regulatory compatibility.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 33 mF nominal capacitance with a 16 V rated voltage and ±20% tolerance for bulk energy storage and decoupling.
• High Ripple Current Endurance — Specified ripple current handling of 5.6 A at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 6.44 A at 50 kHz (high frequency), with endurance under rated ripple current for 3000 hours at 85°C.
• Temperature and Lifetime — Operating temperature range from –40°C to +85°C and an endurance specification that maintains capacitance within ±20% after the 3000 h 85°C test.
• Mounting & Package — Snap-in terminal, radial can package (can-type, snap-in), suitable for secure board mounting in power assemblies; physical size approximately L: 4 × D: 3 cm.
• Leakage and Dissipation — Leakage current defined by I ≤ 3√(C·V) (μA) after 5 minutes at 20°C; tangent of loss angle (tan δ) specified for 16 V at 120 Hz.
• Regulatory Compliance — Compliant to the RoHS directive (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).

Typical Applications

• General-purpose power circuits — Bulk smoothing and decoupling where 33 mF at 16 V and sustained ripple current capability are required.
• Power supply input/output filtering — Handles rated ripple current at 85°C for reliable ripple suppression in standard-temperature power supplies.
• Industrial and commercial electronics — Snap-in radial mounting and the specified operating temperature range (–40°C to +85°C) support use in a variety of general-purpose electronic assemblies.

Unique Advantages

• Specified endurance under ripple load — Withstands 3000 hours of rated ripple current at 85°C, providing predictable performance over long operating periods.
• High ripple-current capability — Rated ripple currents of 5.6 A (120 Hz) and 6.44 A (50 kHz) support designs with significant AC stress on filter capacitors.
• Polarized, snap-in construction — Snap-in terminal package allows secure mounting and straightforward installation in power assemblies.
• Clear electrical limits — Leakage current and tan δ are defined by datasheet limits (I ≤ 3√CV and tan δ specified at 120 Hz), enabling deterministic selection for design margins.
• RoHS compliant — Meets RoHS directives for materials compliance in regulated markets.
