Overview of LKG1C562MESACK – Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor, Snap‑in, Audio
The LKG1C562MESACK is a snap‑in, radial aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon’s LKG series, engineered for audio equipment. It provides 5.6 mF (5600 µF) capacitance at a 16 V rating and is optimized for audio-focused power applications within a compact φ25 × 45 mm can.
Key electrical characteristics include a capacitance tolerance of ±20% (120 Hz, 20°C), tanδ (DF) of 0.25 (20°C, 120 Hz), a low‑frequency ripple current rating of 2.9 A (120 Hz), and a rated life of 1000 hours at 85°C. Status: End Of Life.
Key Features
- Electrical Performance 5.6 mF capacitance at 16 V with ±20% tolerance (120 Hz, 20°C) for bulk energy storage and smoothing in audio power rails.
- Low‑Frequency Ripple Handling Rated ripple current of 2.9 A at 120 Hz to support demanding low‑frequency power demands typical in audio amplifier supplies.
- Loss Characteristics Specified tangent of loss angle (tanδ) of 0.25 measured at 20°C, 120 Hz, enabling predictable dissipation behavior in audio circuits.
- Leakage & Reliability Leakage current specified at 890 µA and endurance rated to 1000 hours at 85°C, with post‑test limits defined for capacitance, tanδ and leakage.
- Mechanical & Mounting Snap‑in radial can (φ25 × 45 mm) for secure panel/board mounting and efficient placement in power supply assemblies; polarized design for correct circuit orientation.
- Compliance & Packaging RoHS compliant and delivered in tray packing for handling and assembly convenience.
Typical Applications
- High‑Fidelity Audio Power Supplies Bulk smoothing and decoupling on amplifier and preamplifier rails to support stable, low‑noise power delivery in audio equipment.
- Audio Amplifiers Energy reservoir for power amplifier front ends and filter networks where robust low‑frequency ripple handling is required.
- Professional Audio Electronics Power conditioning in mixers, processors, and other studio equipment that prioritize fidelity and stable supply rails.
Unique Advantages
