LLS1K222MELZ

The LLS1K222MELZ is a snap-in terminal aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon’s LLS series. It provides 2200 µF capacitance at an 80 V rated voltage in a radial, snap-in can designed for general-purpose applications.

Engineered for sustained ripple performance and long endurance, this part is suited to designs that require polarized bulk capacitance with a compact snap-in package and RoHS compliance.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 2200 µF (2.2 mF) nominal capacitance with an 80 V rated voltage and ±20% tolerance, providing stable bulk energy storage within the specified tolerance.
• Snap-In Radial Package — Snap-in, radial can package (φ22 × 35 mm / L: 3.5 × D: 2.2 cm) for secure board mounting and easy assembly in through-hole designs.
• Endurance at Elevated Temperature — Rated for 3000 hours at 85°C while withstanding rated ripple current, supporting long-term reliability under continuous load conditions.
• Ripple Current Performance — Low-frequency ripple current of 2.53 A at 120 Hz and high-frequency ripple current of 2.909 A at 50 kHz, enabling effective smoothing under varying ripple environments.
• Dielectric Loss and Leakage — Tangent of loss angle (tan δ) of 0.20 measured at 20°C, 120 Hz, and a specified leakage current of 1250 µA.
• Wide Operating Range — Operates from −40°C to +85°C, matching the LLS series’ 85°C standard specification for ambient temperature conditions.
• Compliance & Availability — RoHS-compliant and in mass production; supplied in tray packing for volume assembly environments.

Typical Applications

• General-Purpose Electronics — Provides polarized bulk capacitance where 80 V rating and high ripple capability are required in through-hole assemblies.
• Power Module Designs — Used where sustained ripple handling and long endurance at 85°C are needed to support power conversion and smoothing functions.
• Industrial Equipment — Applicable to general-purpose industrial circuits that require reliable electrolytic bulk storage within the stated temperature and lifetime parameters.

Unique Advantages

• Long Endurance: 3000 hours at 85°C under rated ripple current, delivering predictable lifetime performance for continuous-load applications.
• High Ripple Capacity: Specified ripple currents of 2.53 A (120 Hz) and 2.909 A (50 kHz) allow the capacitor to handle a range of ripple profiles.
• High-Voltage Rating: 80 V nominal rating accommodates higher-voltage circuits while maintaining the benefits of an aluminum electrolytic solution.
• Compact Snap-In Form Factor: φ22 × 35 mm radial snap-in can enables robust mechanical mounting and efficient board-level integration.
• Measured Dielectric Performance: tan δ of 0.20 at 20°C, 120 Hz provides a verifiable measure of loss characteristics for design trade-offs.
• RoHS Compliant & Production-Ready: Meets RoHS requirements and is available in tray packing for scalable procurement and assembly.
