LLS2C271MELY

The LLS2C271MELY is a snap‑in terminal aluminum electrolytic capacitor in Nichicon’s LLS series designed for general‑purpose electronic applications. It delivers 270 µF capacitance at a 160 V rating with a compact φ20 × 25 mm can and snap‑in mounting for secure board attachment.

Engineered for sustained ripple handling and 85 °C operation, this part combines high ripple current capability and long endurance for designs that require reliable bulk capacitance and ripple suppression in moderate‑temperature environments.

Key Features

• Electrical Performance — 270 µF nominal capacitance at 160 V with ±20% tolerance and tanδ 0.15 (max) measured at 20 °C, 120 Hz for stable AC characteristics.
• Ripple Current Capacity — Rated low‑frequency ripple current of 1.28 A (120 Hz) and high‑frequency ripple current of 1.92 A (50 kHz) to support smoothing and decoupling under AC stress.
• Leakage Current — Low leakage current specified at 620 µA to minimize parasitic losses during DC operation.
• Endurance & Reliability — Qualified for 3000 hours at 85 °C with rated ripple current applied, meeting the LLS series endurance criteria for long‑term operation.
• Mechanical & Mounting — Snap‑in radial can package (φ20×25L) designed for secure board mounting and tray packing for production handling.
• Operating Range & Compliance — Rated for operation from −40 °C to 85 °C and compliant with RoHS (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).

Typical Applications

• Power supply filtering — Bulk capacitance and rated ripple current make the LLS2C271MELY suitable for smoothing and ripple suppression in power supplies up to 160 V.
• General‑purpose electronic equipment — Designed for general‑purpose applications that require a high‑voltage aluminum electrolytic with long endurance and snap‑in mounting.
• High‑voltage DC circuits — 160 V rating and 270 µF capacitance support energy storage and decoupling in moderate‑power DC circuits within the specified temperature range.

Unique Advantages

• High ripple tolerance: 1.28 A (120 Hz) and 1.92 A (50 kHz) ripple ratings enable robust performance under AC stress, reducing thermal build‑up in high‑ripple environments.
• Long endurance at elevated temperature: 3000‑hour qualification at 85 °C helps ensure stable capacitance and dielectric characteristics over extended service life.
• Compact, production‑friendly package: φ20×25L snap‑in can in tray packing simplifies assembly and handling for mass production lines.
• Stable loss characteristics: Specified tanδ of 0.15 at 120 Hz (20 °C) provides predictable dissipation behavior for AC and ripple applications.
• RoHS compliant: Meets RoHS (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863) requirements for environmental compliance in commercial designs.
