Overview of LKG1C273MESAAK – 27,000 µF Snap‑In Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor, 16 V, Audio Grade

The LKG1C273MESAAK is a snap‑in aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon’s LKG series, optimized for audio applications. It combines very high capacitance (27,000 µF) in a radial snap‑in can with specifications aimed at high‑fidelity audio equipment and related systems.

Engineered for audio use, the part provides bulk energy storage and low‑frequency ripple handling in a compact φ25 × 50 mm package, with endurance and temperature ratings sized for demanding consumer and pro‑audio environments.

Key Features

  • High Capacitance — 27,000 µF nominal capacitance suitable for bulk storage in audio power circuits; capacitance tolerance ±20%.
  • Audio‑Oriented Grade — Part of the LKG series designed for high‑grade audio equipment and HD audio sound quality.
  • Rated Voltage — 16 V DC rating for low‑voltage audio power rails.
  • Low‑Frequency Ripple Handling — 3.4 A ripple current specified at 120 Hz, enabling effective smoothing under audio load conditions.
  • Loss Tangent — tan δ = 0.45 measured at 20°C, 120 Hz to characterize ESR‑related losses.
  • Leakage Current — 1,970 µA (specified), consistent with large‑value electrolytic devices.
  • Durability & Temperature Range — Rated for operation from −40°C to +85°C with endurance of 1,000 hours at 85°C.
  • Mounting & Package — Snap‑in radial can (φ25 × 50 mm) for secure board mounting; available in tray packing for production handling.
  • RoHS Compliant — Meets the RoHS directive as noted in the product documentation.

Typical Applications

  • High‑grade audio equipment — Intended for use in audio systems where capacitance and stability contribute to sound quality.
  • HD audio systems — Targets designs with high fidelity requirements as described in the LKG series documentation.
  • Power filtering in audio electronics — Suited for applications that require large bulk capacitance and low‑frequency ripple management within the specified temperature range.

Unique Advantages

  • Large bulk capacitance in a compact snap‑in can — 27,000 µF in a φ25 × 50 mm package reduces the board area needed for high‑value storage.
  • Designed for audio fidelity — Part of Nichicon’s LKG family, explicitly developed for high‑tone quality and HD audio applications.
  • Defined ripple and dissipation characteristics — 3.4 A ripple current at 120 Hz and tan δ specified at 20°C provide measurable behavior for design verification.
  • High‑temperature endurance — 1,000 hours at 85°C ensures predictable lifetime performance under specified stress conditions.
  • Robust operating range — −40°C to +85°C operation supports a wide variety of consumer and professional audio environments.
  • RoHS compliance — Facilitates use in designs that require restricted‑substance compliance.

Why Choose LKG1C273MESAAK?

LKG1C273MESAAK is positioned for designers who need very large capacitance and audio‑focused characteristics in a compact snap‑in package. Its combination of 27,000 µF capacitance, 16 V rating, measurable ripple handling, and defined tan δ make it suitable for high‑fidelity audio power designs where component behavior must be specified and repeatable.

With endurance data (1,000 hours at 85°C), defined leakage and loss characteristics, and RoHS compliance, this capacitor provides a clear, verifiable specification set for procurement and engineering teams working on professional and consumer audio products.
