Overview of LLS2A152MELB – 100 V Snap-in Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor, 1500 µF
The LLS2A152MELB is a polarized aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a snap-in terminal (radial can) package designed for general-purpose power applications. It delivers 1,500 µF capacitance at a 100 V rating with robust ripple-current capability and an 85°C, 3,000-hour endurance specification for reliable performance in demanding DC power environments.
Key Features
- Capacitance & Voltage — 1,500 µF nominal capacitance with a 100 V rated voltage and ±20% tolerance, suitable for DC energy storage and smoothing.
- Loss Characteristics — tanδ 0.20 maximum measured at 20°C, 120 Hz, providing predictable dissipation factor for design margining.
- High Ripple Current — 2.56 A at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 2.944 A at 50 kHz (high frequency), supporting applications with significant AC ripple stress.
- Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 1,160 µA for reliable standby behavior and predictable power loss.
- Reliability & Endurance — Rated for 3,000 hours at 85°C under rated ripple conditions, with specified limits for capacitance change, tanδ, and leakage after endurance testing.
- Package & Mounting — Snap-in terminal, radial can package for secure board mounting and straightforward assembly; supplied in tray packing and in mass production status.
- Operating Range & Compliance — Operates from –40°C to +85°C and is RoHS compliant.
Typical Applications
- General-purpose power supplies — Bulk smoothing and energy storage where 100 V rating and 1,500 µF capacitance are required to reduce ripple and stabilize DC rails.
- Power conversion and filtering — Supports DC link or output filtering tasks that demand sustained ripple current capability at both low and high frequencies.
- Industrial electronics — Use in control and power modules operating across –40°C to +85°C where long endurance at elevated temperature is required.
Unique Advantages
- High ripple tolerance: Dual ripple-current specifications (2.56 A at 120 Hz and 2.944 A at 50 kHz) enable handling of both mains-frequency and switching-frequency ripple.
- Long endurance at elevated temperature: 3,000 hours at 85°C under rated ripple current preserves capacitance and limits tanδ growth for sustained reliability.
- Snap-in mounting for secure assembly: Radial can snap-in terminals simplify mechanical retention and PCB installation in production environments.
- Predictable electrical behavior: Specified tanδ (0.20 at 20°C, 120 Hz) and defined leakage current provide clear parameters for thermal and loss budgeting.
- RoHS compliant and mass-production ready: Environmentally compliant construction and tray packing support volume deployment.
Why Choose LLS2A152MELB?
LLS2A152MELB combines a high-voltage 100 V rating with substantial capacitance (1,500 µF) and defined ripple-current performance to meet the needs of general-purpose power conversion, filtering, and energy-storage tasks. Its snap-in radial can package and tray packing support reliable assembly and volume manufacturing.
This component is well suited for engineers designing power supplies and industrial electronic systems that require predictable loss characteristics (tanδ), a controlled leakage current specification, and long-term endurance at 85°C. The RoHS compliance and mass-production status further support integration into commercial product lines.
