Overview of LKG1E222MESYBK – 2200 µF Snap‑In Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor, 25 V (Audio)
The LKG1E222MESYBK is a 2200 µF aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a snap‑in radial can designed for audio equipment. It is part of the Nichicon LKG series, engineered with audio performance in mind and intended for applications that prioritize high‑fidelity power supply filtering and decoupling.
This capacitor provides a 25 V rated voltage, a compact φ20 × 25 mm package, and performance characteristics useful for audio power supply reservoirs, smoothing and decoupling where low‑frequency ripple handling and reliable operation across a wide temperature range are required.
Key Features
- Capacitance & Tolerance — 2200 µF (2.2 mF) nominal with ±20% tolerance at 120 Hz, 20°C, suitable for bulk energy storage and low‑frequency filtering in audio circuits.
- Rated Voltage — 25 V working voltage for mid‑range audio power supply designs.
- Low‑Frequency Ripple Handling — 1.5 A ripple current rating at 120 Hz, helping to reduce ripple in power rails for audio amplifiers and preamplifiers.
- Loss Characteristics — tan δ (DF) = 0.3 measured at 20°C, 120 Hz, providing predictable dissipation characteristics for design calculations.
- Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 700 µA after rated voltage application, useful for bias and power budget considerations.
- Endurance & Temperature Range — Rated for 1000 hours at 85°C; operating temperature span of −40°C to +85°C.
- Package & Mounting — Snap‑in (radial, can) construction in a compact φ20 × 25 mm form factor; supplied in tray packing for production handling.
- Compliance — RoHS compliant.
Typical Applications
- High‑fidelity audio amplifiers — Reservoir and smoothing capacitor in power supplies to support stable DC rails and reduce low‑frequency ripple.
- Audio preamplifiers and signal chains — Bulk decoupling to maintain clean power for sensitive analog stages.
- Audio equipment power modules — Energy storage and transient support where a compact snap‑in can is required.
Unique Advantages
- Audio‑oriented design — Part of the LKG series, developed with priority on high‑fidelity sound quality for audio equipment.
- Compact snap‑in package — φ20 × 25 mm radial can with snap‑in terminals delivers substantial capacitance in a small footprint for space‑constrained designs.
- Robust ripple capability — 1.5 A ripple current rating at 120 Hz supports effective smoothing in audio power supplies and reduces ripple‑related artifacts.
- Wide operating range — −40°C to +85°C temperature range and 1000 h endurance at 85°C provide predictable performance in elevated ambient conditions.
- Production‑friendly packaging — Tray packing facilitates handling and assembly in production environments.
