Overview of LLS2W101MELY – 450 V Snap‑in Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor, 100 µF
The LLS2W101MELY is a snap‑in terminal aluminum electrolytic capacitor specified at 450 V and 100 µF with ±20% tolerance. It is a radial, can-style, snap‑in component designed for general-purpose applications that require high voltage capability and robust ripple-handling.
Key value propositions include a 3000‑hour endurance rating at 85°C, specified low- and high-frequency ripple current performance, and RoHS compliance, delivered in a tray-packed format for production use.
Key Features
- Capacitance & Tolerance: 100 µF nominal capacitance with ±20% tolerance at 120 Hz, 20°C.
- High Voltage Rating: Rated for 450 V DC, suitable where high DC blocking or energy storage is required.
- Snap‑in Terminal / Package: Radial, can-style snap‑in terminal mounting for robust PCB installation and mechanical retention.
- Endurance: Qualified for 3000 hours of operation at 85°C under rated ripple conditions, meeting the series endurance specification.
- Ripple Current Performance: 880 mA at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 1.258 A at 50 kHz (high frequency) to support AC ripple and switching environments within rated limits.
- Leakage Current: Specified leakage current of 630 µA (after application of rated voltage at 20°C), enabling predictable leakage behavior in designs.
- Dissipation Factor (tan δ): 0.2 maximum at 20°C, 120 Hz for the 450 V rating, supporting stable ESR characteristics at line frequency.
- Operating Temperature Range: –25°C to +85°C, aligned with the 350–450 V category temperature range from the series datasheet.
- Physical Size & Packing: Size φ20 × 35L (L: 3.5 × D: 2 cm) with tray packing for production handling.
- Regulatory Compliance: RoHS compliant.
- Production Status: Mass production.
Typical Applications
- General Purpose – High‑Voltage DC Circuits: Suitable for general-purpose circuits that require a 450 V rated capacitor with 100 µF capacitance and predictable leakage behavior.
- General Purpose – Ripple‑Sensitive Supplies: Used where specified low- and high-frequency ripple current ratings (880 mA at 120 Hz, 1.258 A at 50 kHz) are needed to meet ripple endurance requirements.
- General Purpose – Production Assemblies: Tray-packed, snap‑in format supports efficient insertion and production handling for standard general-purpose installations.
Unique Advantages
- High DC Voltage Capability: 450 V rating enables designs that require elevated DC blocking or energy storage without re-specifying for higher voltage parts.
- Long Endurance: 3000 hours at 85°C under rated ripple current provides a defined reliability baseline for long-term use in specified thermal conditions.
- Robust Ripple Handling: Separate low- and high-frequency ripple current specifications allow designers to size the component against both line-frequency and switching ripple.
- Stable Loss Characteristics: tan δ of 0.2 at 20°C and 120 Hz yields predictable dissipation behavior for system thermal planning.
- Secure Mechanical Mounting: Snap‑in radial can package offers mechanical retention suitable for through-hole production assemblies.
- RoHS Compliance & Production Ready: RoHS compliant and available in mass production with tray packing to support volume manufacturing.
