LLS1H562MELB

The LLS1H562MELB is a snap-in terminal aluminum electrolytic capacitor designed for general-purpose applications. It is an 85°C standard snap-in radial can capacitor engineered to withstand rated ripple current for extended periods.

This part delivers 5.6 mF of capacitance at a 50 V rating, polarized construction, RoHS compliance, and tested endurance under application of rated ripple current at 85°C for 3000 hours.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 5.6 mF rated capacitance with a 50 V nominal voltage and a tolerance of −20% to +20%.
• Snap-in Radial Can Package — Snap-in terminal, radial can package for secure PCB mounting with size dimensions L: 3 × D: 3 cm.
• Operating Temperature — Rated for −40 °C to +85 °C operation.
• Ripple Current Endurance — Designed to withstand application of rated ripple current for 3000 hours at 85 °C; ripple current ratings include 3.43 A at 120 Hz and 3.945 A at 50 kHz.
• Electrical Loss & Leakage — Tangent of loss angle (tan δ) for the 50 V rating is specified at a maximum of 0.30; leakage current specified as I ≤ 3√CV (μA) after 5 minutes' application of rated voltage at 20 °C (where C is μF and V is volts).
• Endurance & Shelf Life — Endurance limits after 3000 hours at 85 °C: capacitance change within ±20%, tan δ ≤ 200% of initial spec, leakage current ≤ initial specified value. Shelf life after 1000 hours at 85 °C with voltage treatment: capacitance within ±15%, tan δ ≤ 150% of initial, leakage current ≤ initial specified value.
• Regulatory — Compliant with the RoHS directive (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).
• Polarized — Polarized electrolyte capacitor for DC applications.

Typical Applications

• General-purpose electronics — Suitable for systems requiring bulk capacitance and reliable ripple-current endurance in general-purpose circuits.
• Power supply filtering — Used where long-duration ripple current handling and stable capacitance over life are required for smoothing and decoupling.
• PCB-mounted power modules — Snap-in radial can design provides a secure, board-mounted solution for power and energy-storage roles in assemblies.

Unique Advantages

• Proven ripple-current endurance: Rated to withstand application of rated ripple current for 3000 hours at 85 °C, supporting long-term performance in demanding ripple environments.
• Dual-frequency ripple ratings: Specified ripple currents at 120 Hz (3.43 A) and 50 kHz (3.945 A) provide clear guidance for design across common supply frequencies.
• Wide operating temperature span: −40 °C to +85 °C rating enables use across a broad range of ambient conditions.
• Clear electrical limits: Defined tan δ (max. 0.30 at 50 V) and a standardized leakage current formula (I ≤ 3√CV) simplify electrical design and validation.
• Durability and predictable aging: Endurance and shelf-life specifications give measurable expectations for capacitance, tan δ and leakage after thermal or operational stress.
• RoHS compliant: Meets current RoHS directives for environmental compliance.
