LLS2Z102MELA

The LLS2Z102MELA is a snap-in terminal aluminum electrolytic capacitor designed for general-purpose power applications. It provides a 1000 µF capacitance at a 180 V rating in a radial, can-style snap-in package suitable for robust board mounting.

This capacitor delivers endurance and thermal stability with a rated operating range of −40°C to 85°C, a 3000 hour life at 85°C under rated ripple current, and RoHS compliance—making it appropriate for industrial and commercial power electronics requiring reliable bulk energy storage and filtering.

Key Features

• Electrical Performance — 1000 µF nominal capacitance with ±20% tolerance and a rated voltage of 180 V for high-voltage DC circuits.
• Ripple Current Capability — Rated ripple current of 3.06 A at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 4.59 A at 50 kHz (high frequency) to support smoothing and filtering in power circuits.
• Loss and Leakage — Specified tan δ (DF) of 0.15 and a leakage current of 1270 µA, characterized at measurement conditions in the datasheet.
• Endurance and Reliability — Endurance rating of 3000 hours at 85°C with D.C. bias plus rated ripple current applied, meeting the series’ defined post-test limits for capacitance, tan δ and leakage.
• Thermal Range — Operating temperature from −40°C to 85°C suitable for a wide range of commercial and industrial environments.
• Package and Mounting — Radial, snap-in can package (φ25 × 40 mm) designed for secure snap-in board mounting; supplied in tray packing and offered in mass production status.
• Compliance — RoHS compliant (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).

Typical Applications

• General-purpose power filtering — Bulk capacitance and specified ripple current ratings make this capacitor suitable for smoothing and decoupling in power conversion stages operating up to 180 V.
• Industrial power supplies — 3000 hour endurance at 85°C and the −40°C to 85°C operating range supports use in industrial equipment where prolonged ripple exposure and elevated temperatures occur.
• Commercial electronic equipment — The snap-in radial can package and tray packing streamline assembly for medium- to high-volume production in commercial systems requiring reliable energy storage.

Unique Advantages

• High-voltage capability: 180 V rating enables use in higher-voltage DC link and filtering applications without series stacking.
• Designed for continuous ripple: Specified ripple currents at both low and high frequencies (3.06 A at 120 Hz and 4.59 A at 50 kHz) support extended operation under AC ripple stress.
• Proven endurance: 3000 hours at 85°C with rated ripple current demonstrates long-term stability of capacitance, tan δ and leakage per the series specification.
• Robust snap-in mounting: Radial snap-in terminal design provides a secure mechanical connection for board-level power modules and assemblies.
• Regulatory compliance: RoHS compliance simplifies selection for designs requiring restricted-substance adherence.
• Production-ready packaging: Tray packing and mass production status facilitate procurement and assembly planning.
