LLS2D221MELY

The LLS2D221MELY is a snap-in terminal aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon’s LLS series. It delivers 220 µF capacitance at a 200 V rated voltage in a compact radial can with snap-in mounting, intended for general purpose applications.

Key value comes from its combination of high-voltage rating, durable 3000-hour endurance at 85°C under rated ripple conditions, and practical board-mount snap-in package for high-volume production.

Key Features

• Rated Capacitance & Voltage — 220 µF capacitance with a 200 V rated voltage and ±20% tolerance (measured at 120 Hz, 20°C).
• Snap-in Terminal Package — Radial can, snap-in mounting simplifies board insertion and mechanical retention for assembly.
• Endurance & Reliability — Designed to withstand 3000 hours at 85°C with rated ripple current applied; meets the LLS series endurance criteria.
• Low Loss (tan δ) — tan δ specified at 0.15 (max.) at 20°C and 120 Hz for the 200 V rating, supporting stable AC performance.
• High Ripple Current Ratings — 1.19 A at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 1.785 A at 50 kHz (high frequency) to support AC stress under rated conditions.
• Low Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 620 µA under standard test conditions.
• Operating Temperature Range — −40°C to +85°C for broad environmental suitability within the series’ specified range.
• Compact Dimensions — Cylinder size φ20 × 25L (L: 2.5 × D: 2.0 cm), suitable where a compact high-voltage electrolytic is required.
• RoHS Compliant — Compliant to RoHS directive as indicated for the LLS series.

Typical Applications

• General-Purpose Power Circuits — Provides bulk capacitance and AC ripple handling where a 200 V, 220 µF snap-in electrolytic capacitor is required.
• Industrial Electronics — Suited to designs that need a compact, high-voltage electrolytic with defined endurance at 85°C.
• High-Volume Production — Snap-in terminal and tray packing support efficient assembly and throughput for mass production runs.

Unique Advantages

• High-Voltage Bulk Capacitance: 220 µF at 200 V supports circuits requiring significant stored energy within a compact footprint.
• Proven Endurance: 3000-hour rated life at 85°C under rated ripple current provides predictable long-term behavior for design planning.
• Dual-Frequency Ripple Capability: Specified ripple currents at both 120 Hz and 50 kHz give designers clear performance data across common stress conditions.
• Snap-in Mounting for Assembly: Radial snap-in terminals simplify PCB installation and mechanical stability for automated assembly processes.
• Low Loss and Leakage: tan δ of 0.15 (max.) and leakage current of 620 µA aid in maintaining efficiency and minimizing standby current in circuits.
• Regulatory Compliance: RoHS compliance supports deployment in regions requiring restricted substance adherence.
