LLS2A332MELC

The LLS2A332MELC is a snap‑in terminal aluminum electrolytic capacitor rated at 100 V with a nominal capacitance of 3300 µF and ±20% tolerance. It is designed for general‑purpose power applications requiring bulk capacitance, high ripple handling and extended endurance.

This radial, can‑type snap‑in capacitor supports an operating temperature range of −40°C to 85°C, a rated endurance of 3000 hours at 85°C, low loss (tanδ 0.2 at 20°C and 120 Hz) and RoHS compliance; it is supplied in tray packing and is in mass production.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage: 3.3 mF (3300 µF) nominal at a 100 V rated voltage, suitable where substantial bulk capacitance is required.
• Snap‑In Terminal Package: Radial, can — snap‑in mounting for secure mechanical and electrical connection in chassis or power assemblies.
• High Ripple Current Capacity: 4.07 A at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 4.681 A at 50 kHz (high frequency), enabling sustained ripple handling in power circuits.
• Endurance: Withstands 3000 hours of rated ripple current at 85°C when operated within rated limits, providing extended service life for demanding applications.
• Low Loss Characteristic: tanδ (DF) up to 0.2 measured at 20°C and 120 Hz, supporting efficient operation with reduced heating under AC ripple.
• Leakage Current & Tolerance: Specified leakage current of 1720 µA and capacitance tolerance of ±20% at 120 Hz, 20°C for predictable electrical behavior.
• Wide Temperature Range: Rated for −40°C to 85°C operation to cover typical industrial and power‑electronics environments.
• Packaging & Availability: Supplied in tray packing and in mass production, facilitating volume assembly and procurement.
• RoHS Compliance: Conforms to RoHS directive requirements for environmental compliance.

Typical Applications

• Power supply smoothing — Bulk energy storage and filtering on 100 V rails to reduce voltage ripple and stabilize DC outputs.
• DC bus and intermediate circuits — Energy buffering and ripple acceptance in industrial power conversion and allied systems.
• High‑ripple power stages — Use where elevated ripple currents are present, leveraging the specified low‑ and high‑frequency ripple current ratings.
• General‑purpose industrial equipment — Long‑life capacitance for applications that need durable, tray‑packed components for assembly.

Unique Advantages

• High ripple endurance: Rated ripple currents of 4.07 A (120 Hz) and 4.681 A (50 kHz) reduce the need for parallel capacitors to handle AC stress.
• Extended operational life: 3000 hours endurance at 85°C under rated ripple current supports longer maintenance intervals and predictable replacement cycles.
• Robust temperature performance: −40°C to 85°C operating range maintains capacitance and performance across typical industrial temperature extremes.
• Low dissipation factor: tanδ of 0.2 at 20°C/120 Hz minimizes internal heating and improves efficiency in ripple‑laden circuits.
• Manufacturing‑friendly packaging: Tray packing and mass production availability streamline procurement and automated assembly processes.
• Standards‑aligned design: RoHS compliance ensures regulatory alignment for deployments requiring restricted‑substance conformity.
