LKG1C822MESCBK

The LKG1C822MESCBK is a snap‑in terminal aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon's LKG series, specified for audio applications. It provides 8200 µF capacitance at a 16 V rating in a φ35 mm × 20 mm (diameter × length) package designed for high‑grade and HD audio equipment.

This part is the TYPE‑II (code BK) center grade in the LKG family, engineered to prioritize audible performance through electrode foil construction while delivering standard electrolytic capacitor reliability and a 1000‑hour endurance at 85 °C.

Key Features

• Audio‑focused grade (TYPE‑II / BK) Center grade in the LKG series using electrode foil intended to provide improved sound performance for multiple‑use audio designs.
• Electrical performance 8200 µF nominal capacitance with a 16 V rated voltage and ±20% tolerance, suitable for decoupling and bulk energy storage in audio power domains.
• Loss characteristics Specified tangent of loss angle (tan δ) of 0.35 (measurement conditions: 120 Hz, 20 °C), enabling predictable AC loss behavior in audio frequency ranges.
• Ripple handling Rated ripple current of 2.25 A at 120 Hz, allowing sustained ripple smoothing in audio power supplies.
• Mechanical & mounting Snap‑in terminal, radial can package (φ35 × 20 mm) for secure vertical mounting and robust PCB attachment in chassis or board assemblies.
• Temperature and lifetime Operating range −40 °C to +85 °C with endurance specified as 1000 hours at 85 °C under rated voltage.
• Leakage current spec After 5 minutes at rated voltage (20 °C), leakage current is not more than 3√(C·V) μA (C in μF, V in V) per the product family specification.
• RoHS compliant Conforms to RoHS directive (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).
• Clear marking Capacitor sleeve is printed with gold‑color lettering on a black sleeve for easy identification.

Typical Applications

• High‑grade audio amplifiers Bulk smoothing and decoupling in amplifier power supplies where audible performance is a priority.
• HD Audio equipment Power filtering and energy reservoir roles in HD audio systems to support high‑fidelity playback.
• Professional audio gear Use in mixers, preamps and other pro audio electronics requiring stable capacitance and defined ripple handling at 120 Hz.

Unique Advantages

• Audio‑optimized electrode design TYPE‑II grade (BK) construction emphasizes sound performance via electrode foil selection appropriate for multiple‑use audio applications.
• High capacitance in a compact form 8200 µF in a φ35 × 20 mm can provides substantial energy storage while minimizing board footprint.
• Predictable AC behavior Specified tan δ (0.35 at 120 Hz, 20 °C) and ripple current rating (2.25 A at 120 Hz) give designers measurable parameters for audio power‑supply design.
• Durability under elevated temperature Endurance rating of 1000 hours at 85 °C under rated voltage supports long‑term stability in warm operating environments.
• Regulatory compliance RoHS conformity simplifies material compliance for commercial audio products.
