Overview of LLS2A222MELB – 100 V, 2200 µF Snap‑in Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor
The LLS2A222MELB is a snap‑in terminal aluminum electrolytic capacitor offering 2200 µF capacitance at a 100 V rated voltage. It is a radial, can‑style, snap‑in component designed for general‑purpose applications that require bulk capacitance and robust ripple handling.
Key value comes from its combination of high capacitance, substantial ripple current capability at both low and high frequencies, 3000‑hour endurance at 85°C, and RoHS compliance, packaged for tray shipping in mass production quantities.
Key Features
- Electrical Performance — 2.2 mF (2200 µF) nominal capacitance with ±20% tolerance and a 100 V rated voltage for high‑voltage bulk energy storage.
- Low Loss — Tangent of loss angle (tan δ) specified at 0.20 (max) at 20°C, 120 Hz for the 100 V rating, supporting stable AC performance at line frequencies.
- High Ripple Current Capability — 3170 mA low‑frequency ripple current at 120 Hz and 3645.5 mA high‑frequency ripple current at 50 kHz, enabling effective smoothing under varying ripple conditions.
- Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 1400 µA, measured under the rated conditions.
- Endurance — Rated for 3000 hours of operation at 85°C with D.C. bias plus rated ripple current applied; capacitance and loss remain within specified limits after the endurance test.
- Temperature Range — Operating temperature from −40°C to 85°C to cover a wide range of commercial and industrial environments.
- Mechanical & Mounting — Radial, can‑style snap‑in package (φ30 × 30 mm) for secure PCB mounting and ease of assembly.
- Regulatory — RoHS compliant for environmental compatibility.
- Production & Packaging — Available in tray packing and listed as mass production status for consistent supply.
Typical Applications
- General‑Purpose Power Solutions — For general‑purpose bulk capacitance where 2200 µF at 100 V and snap‑in mounting are required.
- AC/Ripple‑Heavy Circuits — Where high ripple current handling at 120 Hz and 50 kHz is needed to support smoothing and decoupling tasks.
- Industrial and Commercial Equipment — For general‑purpose use in equipment that requires endurance at elevated temperature (3000 h at 85°C) and robust leakage characteristics.
Unique Advantages
- High Voltage Bulk Capacitance: 2200 µF at 100 V provides substantial stored energy in a compact snap‑in can for designs that need high DC voltage capability.
- Dual‑Frequency Ripple Handling: Specified ripple currents at both 120 Hz and 50 kHz offer predictable performance across line‑frequency and higher frequency ripple environments.
- Long Endurance at Elevated Temperature: 3000‑hour rating at 85°C ensures durability under sustained thermal and electrical stress.
- Assembly‑Friendly Package: Snap‑in radial can and tray packing support reliable mechanical retention and efficient PCB assembly workflows.
- Regulatory Compliance: RoHS compliance simplifies material selection for regulated markets.
- Production Readiness: Mass production status supports consistent availability for volume designs.
