LLS1E103MELA

The LLS1E103MELA is an aluminum electrolytic capacitor in Nichicon's LLS series, featuring a snap-in terminal radial can construction and an 85°C standard rating. It provides 10,000 µF capacitance at a 25 V rating with ±20% tolerance, designed for general-purpose power applications that require high bulk capacitance and sustained ripple handling.

Key value propositions include high ripple-current capability across low and high frequencies, a 3000-hour endurance rating at 85°C, RoHS compliance, and availability in tray packing for mass production applications.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage: 10,000 µF (10 mF) rated at 25 V with ±20% tolerance for bulk energy storage and decoupling.
• Snap-in Radial Can Package: Snap-in terminal type in a radial, can-style package (φ25 × 30 mm) for secure panel or chassis mounting.
• Ripple Current Performance: 3.16 A low-frequency ripple current at 120 Hz and 3.634 A high-frequency ripple current at 50 kHz to support demanding AC ripple conditions.
• Endurance: Rated for 3000 hours at 85°C under DC bias plus rated ripple current, meeting the LLS series endurance specification.
• Leakage & Dissipation: Specified leakage current of 1500 µA and tangent of loss angle (tan δ) of 0.40 at 20°C and 120 Hz for the 25 V rating.
• Operating Temperature Range: –40°C to +85°C suitable for a wide range of industrial and commercial operating environments.
• Compliance & Availability: RoHS compliant, supplied in tray packing, and listed as mass production status.

Typical Applications

• Power Supply Filtering: Bulk smoothing and filtering on DC rails where high capacitance is required to reduce ripple and stabilize voltage.
• Power Electronics: Ripple absorption and energy buffering in converters, inverters, and power-management modules that operate within the 25 V rating.
• Industrial & Commercial Equipment: General-purpose energy storage and decoupling in control systems, power distribution modules, and other equipment requiring long endurance at elevated temperatures.

Unique Advantages

• High Bulk Capacitance: 10,000 µF provides substantial storage for hold-up and smoothing applications, reducing required board space compared to multiple smaller capacitors.
• Robust Ripple Handling: Specified ripple currents at both 120 Hz and 50 kHz enable performance across low and high-frequency ripple environments.
• Long Endurance at Elevated Temperature: 3000 hours rated life at 85°C under rated ripple and DC bias supports sustained reliability in hot operating conditions.
• Secure Mechanical Mounting: Snap-in terminal radial can simplifies mechanical retention for chassis- or panel-mounted power assemblies.
• Design-Ready Packaging: Tray packing and mass-production availability help streamline procurement and assembly for volume designs.
• Regulatory Compliance: RoHS compliant to meet environmental requirements for commercial and industrial applications.
