LLS2G681MELC

The LLS2G681MELC is an aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon’s LLS series featuring a snap-in terminal configuration and an 85°C standard rating. It provides 680 µF capacitance at a 400 V rated voltage with ±20% tolerance for general-purpose electronic applications.

Designed for designs that require high-voltage, high-capacitance, snap-in mounting, this part delivers defined ripple-current capability and long endurance for stable performance in sustained operating conditions.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 680 µF nominal capacitance at a 400 V rated voltage with ±20% tolerance, suitable where high-voltage bulk capacitance is required.
• Snap-in Terminal Mounting — Radial can, snap-in package (φ35 × 50 mm) for secure board retention and easy insertion during assembly; supplied in tray packing for mass production.
• Endurance — Rated for 3000 hours at 85°C when subjected to rated ripple current and DC bias, supporting long-term operation under rated conditions.
• Ripple Current Performance — Low-frequency ripple current of 3.1 A at 120 Hz and high-frequency ripple current of 4.433 A at 50 kHz, enabling handling of continuous AC ripple across a range of frequencies.
• Loss and Leakage Characteristics — Tangent of loss angle (tan δ) specified at 0.20 (max) measured at 20°C, 120 Hz; leakage current listed at 1560 µA to characterize DC leakage behavior after voltage application.
• Operating Temperature Range — Rated for operation from −25°C to +85°C consistent with the 350–450 V category for the LLS series.
• Regulatory Compliance — RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• General Purpose — Bulk energy storage and smoothing in electronic systems that require a 400 V, 680 µF snap-in capacitor for general-purpose designs.
• High-Voltage AC Ripple Management — Use in circuits where specified ripple current capability (3.1 A @120 Hz, 4.433 A @50 kHz) and endurance at 85°C are required.
• Panel and Chassis-Mounted Power Modules — Snap-in, radial can package for secure mechanical retention in assemblies requiring tray-packed, mass-production components.

Unique Advantages

• High-Voltage Bulk Capacitance: 400 V rating combined with 680 µF provides substantial DC-link or bulk capacitance where elevated voltages are present.
• Defined Ripple Handling: Specified low- and high-frequency ripple currents (3.1 A at 120 Hz and 4.433 A at 50 kHz) help designers size capacitors against expected AC stress.
• Proven Endurance: 3000 hours at 85°C under rated ripple and bias conditions supports sustained operation and predictable aging behavior.
• Snap-In Mechanical Reliability: Snap-in terminal style and radial can package enable secure mounting for production assemblies and automated handling (tray packing).
• Measured Electrical Parameters: Specified tan δ (0.20 max at 20°C, 120 Hz) and listed leakage current (1560 µA) provide clear electrical characterization for design verification.
• RoHS Compliance: Compliant to RoHS requirements for materials and environmental standards.
