LLS1J472MELA

The LLS1J472MELA from Nichicon is a snap‑in terminal aluminum electrolytic capacitor in the LLS series, rated 4700 µF at 63 V. Designed for general‑purpose power electronics, it provides bulk energy storage and filtering in assemblies that require a radial can with secure snap‑in mounting.

Key value propositions include industry‑standard operating range (−40 °C to 85 °C), a proven 3000‑hour endurance at 85 °C, and packaging suited for mass production assembly (tray packing).

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 4700 µF (4.7 mF) rated at 63 V for bulk filtering and energy storage in power circuits.
• Snap‑in Terminal Package — Radial can with snap‑in terminals provides robust board mounting and mechanical stability for through‑hole assemblies.
• Temperature Range & Endurance — Operating range from −40 °C to 85 °C with a rated endurance of 3000 hours at 85 °C under rated ripple conditions.
• Ripple Current Capability — Rated ripple current of 3.59 A at 120 Hz and 4.128 A at 50 kHz to support applications with significant AC ripple.
• Size — Compact form factor: φ25 × 40 mm (L: 4.0 cm × D: 2.5 cm), enabling high capacitance in a small footprint.
• Polarized Electrolytic — Polarized design suitable for DC filtering and bulk storage applications; capacitance tolerance ±20%.
• Regulatory Compliance — RoHS compliant.
• Production‑Friendly Packaging — Tray packing for streamlined handling in mass production environments.

Typical Applications

• Power Supply Filtering — Bulk smoothing and decoupling in AC/DC and DC/DC converter outputs, leveraging high capacitance and specified ripple current ratings.
• Industrial Power Electronics — Energy storage and filtering in control units and power modules that operate within −40 °C to 85 °C and require long endurance.
• Backup and Hold‑up Circuits — Provide temporary energy storage for short hold‑up times and supply stabilization in general‑purpose systems.
• Assembly‑Line Production — Snap‑in termination and tray packing facilitate efficient insertion and reliable mounting in high‑volume manufacturing.

Unique Advantages

• High Capacitance in a Compact Can — 4700 µF in a φ25 × 40 mm package supports substantial bulk energy storage without large board area.
• Designed for High Ripple Environments — Specified ripple currents at both 120 Hz and 50 kHz enable use where AC ripple is a design factor.
• Proven Endurance — Rated to withstand 3000 hours at 85 °C under rated ripple, offering predictable lifetime performance.
• Robust Mounting — Snap‑in terminal package provides secure mechanical retention for through‑hole assemblies and ease of handling in production.
• Manufacturing‑Oriented Packaging — Tray packing supports automated or manual insertion workflows for mass production.
• RoHS Compliant — Meets RoHS environmental requirements for regulated markets.
