Overview of LLS2W680MELZ – 450 V, 68 µF Snap-in Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor
The LLS2W680MELZ is an aluminum electrolytic, snap-in terminal capacitor rated at 450 V with a nominal capacitance of 68 µF and ±20% tolerance. It is a radial, can-type snap-in component designed for general-purpose electronic assemblies that require high-voltage capacitance in a compact footprint (φ22×25L).
Engineered for durability in elevated-temperature environments, this part withstands 3000 hours of rated ripple current at 85°C and is RoHS compliant, making it suitable for production designs where long-term ripple endurance and regulatory compliance are required.
Key Features
- High Voltage & Capacitance — 450 V rated voltage with 68 µF nominal capacitance and ±20% tolerance for applications needing significant DC voltage handling in a single component.
- Snap-in Radial Can Package — Radial, can-type snap-in mounting provides secure board-level installation for power modules and assemblies designed for snap-in terminals.
- Endurance at Elevated Temperature — Specified to endure 3000 hours of rated ripple current at 85°C, enabling reliable operation under sustained thermal stress.
- Ripple Current Performance — Rated ripple current of 710 mA at 120 Hz and 1.015 A at 50 kHz to support a range of line- and switching-frequency conditions.
- Operating Temperature Range — Specified for operation from −25 °C to +85 °C, matching the high-voltage category specification for 350–450 V parts.
- Regulatory Compliance — Conforms to RoHS (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863), supporting environmental and regulatory requirements.
- Compact Footprint — Physical size φ22×25L (L: 2.5 × D: 2.2 cm) provides a space-conscious option for high-voltage board designs.
Typical Applications
- General Purpose Electronics — Intended for general-purpose circuits where a 450 V, 68 µF polarized capacitor is required.
- Board-level Power Modules — Snap-in radial can package supports board-mounted power assemblies and modules that use snap-in terminal components.
- Elevated-Temperature Systems — Suitable for designs that require endurance at 85 °C, backed by a 3000-hour rated ripple-current specification.
Unique Advantages
- High-Voltage Capability: 450 V rating enables use in higher-voltage DC applications without stacking multiple components.
- Measured Ripple Ratings: Specified ripple current values at both 120 Hz and 50 kHz allow engineers to assess performance across common frequency ranges.
- Proven Endurance: 3000-hour endurance at 85 °C provides a quantifiable reliability metric for thermal and ripple-stress planning.
- RoHS Compliance: Meets RoHS (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863) requirements for environmental conformity in production assemblies.
- Compact Snap-in Form Factor: φ22×25L radial can and snap-in terminals simplify mechanical integration in space-constrained power circuits.
