Overview of LKG1E272MESACK – Aluminum Electrolytic Snap-in Capacitor, 2700 µF, 25 V
The LKG1E272MESACK is an aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a snap-in (radial can) package, specified at 2700 µF and 25 V. It is engineered for audio applications and the LKG series is designed to prioritize high-fidelity sound quality for high-grade and HD audio equipment.
With snap-in mounting and a compact φ25 × 35 mm can, this capacitor provides power-supply smoothing and energy storage in professional and consumer audio designs while meeting RoHS environmental requirements.
Key Features
- Core Construction Aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a radial, snap-in can package for secure chassis or board mounting.
- Audio-grade Design Designed specifically for high-grade audio equipment with emphasis on high-fidelity sound quality as part of the LKG series.
- Capacitance & Rated Voltage 2.7 mF (2700 µF) nominal capacitance at a rated voltage of 25 V.
- Tolerance & Polarization ±20% capacitance tolerance at 120 Hz, 20°C; polarized device suitable for DC power applications.
- Ripple Current Rated ripple current of 2.15 A at 120 Hz to support audio power-supply filtering and transient loads.
- Operating Temperature & Endurance Specified operating range −40°C to +85°C with an endurance rating of 1000 hours at 85°C under rated voltage.
- Leakage and Stability Leakage current specified as not more than 3√(C·V) µA after 5 minutes at 20°C; endurance limits include capacitance change within ±20% and controlled tan δ increase after 1000 hours at 85°C.
- Environmental Compliance Compliant to the RoHS directive (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).
- Series Options The LKG series includes TYPE-I, TYPE-II and TYPE-III grading options in the family to address different tone-quality requirements in audio designs.
Typical Applications
- Professional audio amplifiers — Power-supply smoothing and reservoir capacitance to support clean, stable supply rails for high-fidelity amplification.
- High-fidelity consumer AV equipment — Decoupling and energy storage in receivers, integrated amplifiers, and other HD audio components.
- Studio and live sound gear — Bulk capacitance for mixers, preamps, and signal-chain power modules where sustained performance under audio loads is required.
Unique Advantages
- Audio-focused electrical design — Series and part-level design emphasize sound quality for high-grade and HD audio systems.
- Compact snap-in packaging — φ25 × 35 mm can with snap-in terminals for reliable mechanical mounting and straightforward assembly in audio chassis.
- High ripple capability — 2.15 A ripple current at 120 Hz supports demanding audio power-supply filtering and transient currents.
- Wide temperature and proven endurance — Rated for −40°C to +85°C and specified for 1000 hours at 85°C, providing predictable long-term behavior in thermal environments common to audio equipment.
- Predictable leakage and stability limits — Leakage current and endurance criteria are defined (leakage ≤ 3√CV µA after 5 minutes; endurance limits on capacitance and tan δ), aiding design margining and reliability planning.
- RoHS compliance — Meets contemporary environmental requirements for electronic assemblies.
