LLS1C822MELZ

The LLS1C822MELZ is an aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon's LLS series, featuring a snap‑in terminal radial can and tray packing for production assembly. It delivers 8.2 mF (8200 µF) at 16 V with ±20% tolerance and is intended for general-purpose applications that require high bulk capacitance, rated ripple handling and long endurance.

Key attributes include rated ripple current capability at both low and high frequencies, a 3000‑hour endurance at 85°C, RoHS compliance, and an operating temperature range of −40°C to 85°C.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 8.2 mF (8200 µF) rated at 16 V with ±20% tolerance (measured at 120 Hz, 20°C), providing substantial bulk capacitance in a compact snap‑in package.
• Ripple Current Performance — 2.56 A low‑frequency ripple at 120 Hz and 2.944 A high‑frequency ripple at 50 kHz, supporting designs with continuous AC ripple requirements.
• Endurance — Specified for 3000 hours at 85°C (with rated ripple current and voltage applied), consistent with the LLS series endurance criteria.
• Leakage & Dissipation — Leakage current listed at 1080 µA; tangent of loss angle (tan δ) up to 0.50 at 20°C and 120 Hz for the 16 V rating.
• Operating Temperature — Rated for −40°C to +85°C, matching the LLS category temperature range for the 16 V rating.
• Package & Mounting — Radial, snap‑in can format with dimensions φ22 × 25 L (22 mm diameter × 25 mm length), supplied in tray packing for mass production readiness.
• Environmental Compliance — RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• General‑Purpose Power Supply Filtering — Bulk capacitance and rated ripple current make this part suitable for smoothing and energy storage in general‑purpose power supply circuits.
• DC Link and Smoothing — High capacitance combined with specified low‑ and high‑frequency ripple capability supports DC link and smoothing roles in a variety of board‑level power designs.
• Production Assembly and Volume Builds — Snap‑in radial package and tray packing simplify insertion and handling for mass production manufacturing processes.

Unique Advantages

• High Bulk Capacitance: 8.2 mF provides significant energy storage in a compact snap‑in can, helping reduce the number of parallel capacitors required.
• Dual‑Frequency Ripple Rating: Specified ripple current at both 120 Hz and 50 kHz provides clarity for designs exposed to low‑ and high‑frequency ripple sources.
• Long Endurance at Elevated Temperature: 3000 hours at 85°C under rated conditions offers predictable lifetime performance for sustained operating environments.
• Production‑Ready Packaging: Tray packing and snap‑in mounting support efficient handling and consistent placement in high‑volume assembly.
• RoHS Compliant: Meets RoHS requirements for environmental compliance in production builds.
