LNT2A103MSEN

The LNT2A103MSEN is a screw-terminal, large-can aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon’s LNT series. It provides 10,000 µF capacitance at a 100 V rating in a radial can with screw terminals and is intended for general-purpose applications.

Key value propositions include high bulk capacitance, robust ripple-current capability, and a wide operating temperature range (−40°C to +105°C) with a 2,000-hour endurance at 105°C for long-term high-temperature operation.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 10,000 µF nominal capacitance with a rated voltage of 100 V and tolerance of −20% to +20%.
• Ripple Current Capability — Handles low-frequency ripple current of 6.7 A at 120 Hz and high-frequency ripple current of 7.705 A at 100 kHz.
• Thermal Performance & Endurance — Rated operating temperature range of −40°C to +105°C with a specified life/endurance of 2,000 hours at 105°C.
• Loss and Leakage — Specified tangent of loss angle (tan δ) of 0.15 (measured at 20°C, 120 Hz) and leakage current of 3,000 µA.
• Package & Mounting — Radial can (φ51 × 100 L) with screw terminal mounting (M5 nominal bolt for φ51) and shipped in cardboard packing.
• RoHS Compliance — Device is RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• General-Purpose Power Systems — For general-purpose applications that require a high-capacitance, 100 V electrolytic solution.
• High-Ripple Environments — Suitable where substantial ripple currents occur, supported by 6.7 A (120 Hz) and 7.705 A (100 kHz) ratings.
• High-Temperature Installations — Applicable in systems operating across −40°C to +105°C with a 2,000-hour endurance at the upper temperature limit.

Unique Advantages

• High Bulk Capacitance: 10,000 µF nominal capacitance provides significant charge storage for bulk filtering and energy smoothing in general-purpose designs.
• Dual-Frequency Ripple Handling: Rated ripple currents specified at both 120 Hz and 100 kHz accommodate AC loading across frequency ranges.
• Designed for Elevated Temperatures: Rated to −40°C to +105°C with a 2,000-hour endurance at 105°C, supporting sustained operation at elevated temperatures.
• Screw-Terminal Mechanical Mounting: Screw-terminal radial-can construction (φ51 × 100 L) provides secure electrical and mechanical connection for higher-current applications.
• Clear Electrical Characteristics: Specified tan δ (0.15 at 20°C, 120 Hz) and defined leakage current (3,000 µA) allow predictable design margins.
• Regulatory Compliance: RoHS compliant to meet environmental directive requirements.
