LNT1E104MSE

The LNT1E104MSE from Nichicon is a screw-terminal aluminum electrolytic capacitor in the LNT series designed for general-purpose power applications. It delivers 100 mF at a 25 V rating in a radial can package with screw terminals, offering high ripple-current capability and operation to 105°C.

This component is intended for designs requiring bulk energy storage and power filtering where robust ripple handling, a polarized electrolytic solution, and RoHS compliance are required.

Key Features

• Capacitance and Voltage — 100 mF nominal capacitance rated at 25 V for bulk filtering and energy storage in low-voltage power rails.
• High Ripple Current — Rated ripple current of 11.5 A at 120 Hz and 13.22 A at 100 kHz to support heavy AC ripple conditions.
• Temperature Range — Operates from −40°C to +105°C, suitable for elevated-temperature environments.
• Lifetime — Specified lifetime of 2000 hours at 105°C, consistent with series endurance guidance for higher-voltage ranges.
• Package and Mounting — Radial can with screw terminals for secure, high-current connections and straightforward mechanical mounting.
• Polarized Electrolytic — Polarized construction for DC power applications; capacitance tolerance ±20% (120 Hz, 20°C).
• Environmental Compliance — RoHS compliant.
• Physical Size — Package dimension L: 10 cm × D: 6.35 cm for footprint and enclosure planning.

Typical Applications

• General-purpose power filtering — Bulk smoothing and decoupling on low-voltage DC rails where high capacitance and ripple handling are needed.
• Power supply energy storage — Energy buffering for converters and power modules that require polarized high-capacitance components.
• Industrial power electronics — Use in assemblies requiring screw-terminal connections and sustained operation up to 105°C.

Unique Advantages

• High ripple tolerance: Ripple ratings at both low and high frequencies (11.5 A at 120 Hz, 13.22 A at 100 kHz) reduce heating and extend service life under heavy AC stress.
• Elevated operating temperature: 105°C capability supports deployment in warmer enclosures and near heat-generating components.
• Screw-terminal connectivity: Robust mechanical and electrical connection ideal for high-current paths and easy field assembly.
• Substantial capacitance in a compact can: 100 mF in a radial can package delivers significant energy density for DC bus and smoothing tasks.
• RoHS compliant: Meets environmental substance restrictions for regulated markets and procurement.
• Specified lifetime: 2000 hours at 105°C provides a clear reliability expectation for design planning.
