LLS2V121MELZ

The LLS2V121MELZ is a Nichicon LLS series aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a snap-in terminal can. It provides 120 µF capacitance at a 350 V rated voltage with polarized construction and a compact φ22 × 25L package.

Designed for general-purpose power applications, this snap-in capacitor delivers high-voltage energy storage, elevated ripple-current capability, and 3,000 hours endurance at 85°C—making it suitable where reliable DC filtering and bulk energy buffering are required.

Key Features

• Rated Capacitance and Voltage — 120 µF capacitance rated at 350 V for high-voltage DC applications.
• Snap-in Terminal Package — Radial, can-type snap-in construction for through-hole mounting and secure board attachment.
• Endurance — 3,000 hours life at 85°C under rated ripple current conditions, with specifications restored at 20°C after test.
• Ripple Current Capability — Low-frequency ripple current 1,040 mA at 120 Hz and high-frequency ripple current 1,487.2 mA at 50 kHz to support power supply smoothing and decoupling.
• Electrical Loss — Tangent of loss angle (tan δ) of 0.15 maximum measured at 20°C and 120 Hz (typical for 350 V rating).
• Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 610 µA after voltage application at 20°C.
• Operating Temperature — Rated for operation from –25°C to +85°C (350 V category temperature range).
• RoHS Compliant — Meets RoHS directive requirements.
• Compact Dimensions — Package diameter φ22 mm and length 25 mm for space-efficient placement.

Typical Applications

• General-purpose power filtering — Bulk capacitance and ripple current handling for DC power supplies and smoothing stages.
• Energy storage and buffering — High-voltage energy storage for intermediate DC link or hold-up functions within general-purpose equipment.
• Power conversion stages — Support for decoupling and ripple attenuation where a 350 V rated aluminum electrolytic is required.

Unique Advantages

• High-voltage capability: 350 V rating enables use in higher-voltage DC circuits without series stacking.
• Robust ripple performance: 1,040 mA at 120 Hz and 1,487.2 mA at 50 kHz provide headroom for demanding ripple-current loads.
• Long endurance at elevated temperature: 3,000 hours at 85°C supports sustained operation under rated ripple and bias conditions.
• Compact, secure mounting: Snap-in radial can (φ22 × 25L) offers a space-efficient, board-secure solution for through-hole assemblies.
• Measured low-loss behavior: tan δ ≤ 0.15 at 20°C/120 Hz for predictable ESR-related performance in AC conditions.
• Regulatory compliance: RoHS-compliant construction aligns with modern environmental requirements.
