Overview of LQS2V681MELC40 – 350V, 680µF Snap‑In Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor
The LQS2V681MELC40 is an aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a snap‑in terminal radial can designed for high‑speed charge/discharge applications. It is rated 350 V with 680 µF capacitance and ±20% tolerance, and is specified for operation from –25 °C to +105 °C.
Built for power‑electronics environments, this part is suited to high‑frequency regenerative voltages, inverters and AC servomotor circuits, fluctuating‑voltage equipment, and rectifier/voltage‑doubler circuits. It delivers verified endurance under thermal and charge/discharge stress and is RoHS compliant.
Key Features
- Capacitance & Voltage — 680 µF nominal capacitance at a 350 V rating with ±20% tolerance for bulk energy storage and DC link use.
- High‑Temperature Rating — Rated for operation up to 105 °C with a specified endurance of 3000 hours at 105 °C under DC bias plus rated ripple current.
- High‑Speed Charge/Discharge Endurance — Qualified for charge/discharge endurance testing of 50 million cycles (room temperature, charge/discharge voltage = rated voltage + 0.35 V, 6 Hz), with capacitance, tan δ and leakage current meeting specified limits afterward.
- Ripple Current Capability — Specified ripple current handling of 1.7 A at 120 Hz and 2.431 A at 50 kHz to support high‑frequency power circuits.
- Electrical Losses and Leakage — tan δ (max) 0.15 at 350 V (120 Hz, 20 °C); leakage current specified by I ≤ 3√(C·V) µA after 5 minutes at 20 °C.
- Package & Mounting — Radial, snap‑in can package for secure board mounting in power assemblies; polarized design for DC link and rectifier use.
- Temperature Stability — Category temperature range –25 °C to +105 °C and impedance ratio Z(–25 °C)/Z(+20 °C) ≤ 8 for 350–450 V ratings (120 Hz measurement).
- Compliance — RoHS compliant (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).
Typical Applications
- AC Servo Drives & Motor Control — Bulk energy storage and regenerative voltage buffering in servo and motion control systems.
- General Inverters — DC link and smoothing capacitor for inverter stages where high ripple and frequent charge/discharge cycles occur.
- Regenerative Circuits — High‑frequency regenerative voltage handling in power conversion and energy recovery circuits.
- Rectifier / Voltage Doubler Circuits — Suited for rectifier stages and voltage‑doubler configurations requiring reliable high‑voltage capacitors.
- Industrial Power Equipment — Systems operating in fluctuating‑voltage environments that demand thermal endurance and high cycle life.
Unique Advantages
- Rated for High DC Voltage: 350 V rating enables use in DC link and high‑voltage power sections without speculative derating.
- Designed for High‑Frequency Stress: Explicit charge/discharge endurance testing (50 million cycles) and measured high‑frequency ripple current ratings support demanding switching applications.
- High Temperature Endurance: 3000 hours at 105 °C under rated stress provides predictable lifetime behavior in hot operating environments.
- Measured Loss and Leakage Limits: tan δ and leakage current specifications (including I ≤ 3√(C·V) µA) give clear electrical performance expectations for design verification.
- Practical Snap‑In Form Factor: Radial snap‑in can simplifies secure PCB mounting for power assemblies and cabinetized equipment.
- RoHS Compliance: Meets applicable RoHS directives, supporting regulatory requirements for restricted substances.
