LLS2Z122MELC

The LLS2Z122MELC is an aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a snap‑in terminal, radial can package designed for general‑purpose applications. It provides 1.2 mF capacitance at a 180 V rated voltage with a ±20% tolerance and polarization for DC applications.

Engineered for sustained operation up to 85°C with a 3000‑hour endurance, this RoHS‑compliant module delivers measurable ripple‑handling, leakage, and dissipation characteristics useful for power system designs that require bulk capacitance in a durable snap‑in form factor.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 1.2 mF (1200 µF) rated at 180 V with ±20% tolerance for bulk energy storage and decoupling where a high DC voltage rating is required.
• Snap‑in Radial Can Package — Snap‑in terminal type with a radial can package (φ35 × 30 mm) for secure mechanical retention and straightforward board mounting.
• Ripple Current Capability — Low‑frequency ripple current of 3.49 A at 120 Hz and high‑frequency ripple current of 5.235 A at 50 kHz to support applications with continuous AC ripple stress.
• Loss and Leakage Performance — Specified tanδ of 0.15 and leakage current of 1390 µA to characterize dissipation and DC leakage behavior at 20°C.
• Endurance at Elevated Temperature — Designed to withstand rated ripple current and DC bias for 3000 hours at 85°C, meeting defined capacitance, tanδ and leakage limits after endurance testing.
• Operating Temperature Range — Rated for operation from –40°C to +85°C to accommodate a broad range of ambient conditions.
• Regulatory Compliance — Compliant with RoHS requirements.

Typical Applications

• General Purpose — Suited for general‑purpose designs that require a 1.2 mF, 180 V polarized aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a snap‑in package.
• High Ripple Current Circuits — Appropriate where sustained ripple handling is required, supported by specified ripple current ratings at 120 Hz and 50 kHz.
• Elevated‑Temperature Endurance — Applications requiring capacitors that maintain specified performance after 3000 hours of stress at 85°C.
• RoHS‑Compliant Designs — For projects that require lead‑free, RoHS‑compliant components.

Unique Advantages

• High DC Voltage and Bulk Capacitance: 180 V rating combined with 1.2 mF capacitance provides substantial energy storage in a single component.
• Robust Ripple Performance: Rated ripple currents of 3.49 A (120 Hz) and 5.235 A (50 kHz) help manage AC stress without immediate degradation.
• Long Endurance at 85°C: 3000‑hour endurance under rated ripple and DC bias supports longer field life in warm operating environments.
• Snap‑In Mechanical Retention: Snap‑in terminal configuration and radial can package simplify board assembly and provide secure mounting.
• Measured Dissipation and Leakage Specs: Specified tanδ (0.15) and leakage current (1390 µA) enable predictable thermal and leakage budgeting in designs.
• RoHS Compliance: Supports regulatory requirements for restricted substances.
