LLS2A392MELC

The LLS2A392MELC is a snap-in terminal, aluminum electrolytic capacitor in Nichicon's LLS series, offering 3.9 mF nominal capacitance at a 100 V rating. It is designed for general-purpose electronic applications that require high capacitance and high-voltage capability in a radial, snap-in can package.

Key value propositions include robust endurance at elevated temperature (3,000 hours at 85°C), high ripple-current capability at both low and high frequencies, and RoHS compliance for regulatory alignment.

Key Features

• Capacitance and Tolerance — 3.9 mF (3,900 µF) nominal with ±20% tolerance measured at 120 Hz and 20°C.
• Voltage Rating — 100 V rated voltage suitable for higher-voltage bulk applications.
• High Ripple Current Capability — 4,610 mA at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 5,301.5 mA at 50 kHz (high frequency) to support demanding ripple conditions.
• Endurance and Temperature Range — Qualified for 3,000 hours at 85°C; operating temperature range from –40°C to +85°C.
• Loss and Leakage — tan δ (dissipation factor) specified at 0.2 (max) at 20°C and 120 Hz; leakage current listed at 1,870 µA.
• Package and Mounting — Snap-in terminal, radial can (φ35x35L), tray packing for production handling and secure PCB mounting.
• Environmental Compliance — RoHS compliant.
• Production Status — Mass production availability.

Typical Applications

• General-Purpose Electronic Systems — Provides high-capacitance energy storage where a 100 V rating and 3.9 mF are required.
• High-Voltage Power Supplies — Supports smoothing and bulk capacitance needs in power conversion circuits operating up to 100 V.
• Power Modules and Industrial Electronics — Designed for systems that demand sustained ripple handling and long-term endurance at elevated temperature.

Unique Advantages

• High Capacitance at High Voltage: 3.9 mF at 100 V offers substantial stored charge in a compact snap-in can form factor.
• Designed for Continuous Operation: Endurance rated for 3,000 hours at 85°C with specified limits on capacitance change, tan δ, and leakage after endurance testing.
• Robust Ripple Performance: High rated ripple currents at both 120 Hz and 50 kHz reduce thermal stress and improve reliability under AC ripple loading.
• Production-Ready Packaging: Tray packing and mass production status simplify procurement and assembly for volume builds.
• Regulatory Compatibility: RoHS compliance supports deployments where lead-free materials are required.
