LNT2A103MSEB

The LNT2A103MSEB from Nichicon is a screw-terminal aluminum electrolytic capacitor in the LNT series, designed for general-purpose power-electronic use. It provides high capacitance (10,000 µF) at 100 V in a radial can with screw terminals, delivering bulk energy storage and ripple filtering where robust mounting and high-voltage capability are required.

Key value propositions include a 105°C operating range, rated ripple-current performance at both low and high frequencies, and a 2,000-hour life at 105°C, making it suitable for designs that need sustained performance under elevated temperature and continuous ripple load.

Key Features

• Electrical Capacity – 10,000 µF capacitance at a rated voltage of 100 V with ±20% tolerance, offering substantial bulk storage for power systems.
• Ripple Performance – 6.7 A low-frequency ripple current (120 Hz) and 7.705 A high-frequency ripple current (100 kHz), enabling effective smoothing across a range of switching and line frequencies.
• Loss and Leakage – Specified tangent of loss angle (tanδ) of 0.15 and a leakage current of 3,000 µA, providing defined dissipation and self-leakage characteristics for thermal and standby budgeting.
• Thermal and Life Rating – Rated for operation from –40°C to +105°C with a guaranteed life of 2,000 hours at 105°C under rated ripple current conditions.
• Mounting & Package – Screw terminal, radial can construction (φ51 × 100L), designed for secure bolted connections and robust mechanical retention; package dimensions approximately 10 × 5.1 cm (L × D).
• Polarized Design – Standard polarized aluminum electrolytic for conventional DC filtering and energy storage topologies.
• Compliance & Packaging – RoHS compliant and supplied in cardboard packing suitable for mass production handling.

Typical Applications

• General-purpose power filtering – Bulk capacitance and rated ripple capability make this capacitor suitable for smoothing and energy storage in general-purpose power modules.
• Industrial power supplies – Screw-terminal mounting and high-voltage rating support secure installation and reliable DC link or filter performance in industrial equipment.
• Commercial electronics – High capacitance at 100 V and defined leakage/tanδ characteristics for commercial systems requiring sustained filtering at elevated temperatures.

Unique Advantages

• High bulk capacitance at elevated voltage: 10,000 µF at 100 V provides significant stored energy in a single component, reducing the part count for bulk storage.
• Defined multi-frequency ripple capability: Rated ripple currents at 120 Hz and 100 kHz support both line-frequency smoothing and high-frequency switching environments.
• Operates to 105°C with specified lifetime: 2,000-hour endurance at 105°C under rated ripple conditions gives predictable long-term behavior in hot operating environments.
• Robust screw-terminal mounting: Radial can with screw terminals (φ51 × 100L) enables secure, low-impedance connections for high-current paths.
• Clear electrical parameters: Specified tanδ (0.15) and leakage current (3,000 µA) allow straightforward thermal and standby current budgeting in designs.
• RoHS compliant and production-ready: Supplied in cardboard packing and noted as mass production, facilitating volume procurement and assembly processes.
