Overview of LKG1E472MESYAK – Snap‑In Audio Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor, 4.7 mF, 25 V
The LKG1E472MESYAK is a Nichicon LKG series snap‑in terminal aluminum electrolytic capacitor designed for audio equipment. It is a TYPE‑I (Gold Tune) grade component intended to prioritize high‑fidelity sound reproduction as described for the LKG series.
Key electrical characteristics include 4.7 mF capacitance at 25 V, a low‑frequency ripple current rating of 1.7 A (120 Hz), and a defined endurance of 1000 hours at 85°C. Status: End Of Life.
Key Features
- Capacitance & Voltage — 4.7 mF (4700 µF) rated at 25 V with ±20% tolerance, suitable where polarized bulk capacitance is required in audio circuits.
- Audio‑focused grade — Identified as TYPE‑I (Gold Tune) in the LKG series, designed for high‑grade audio equipment and HD audio applications.
- Ripple and loss characteristics — Low‑frequency ripple current 1.7 A at 120 Hz and tangent of loss angle (tan δ) of 0.3 measured at 20°C, 120 Hz.
- Reliability & lifetime — Endurance specified as 1000 hours at 85°C; after endurance test, capacitance change within ±20% and leakage current remains within initial specified limits.
- Operating range — Rated for operation from −40°C to +85°C, with stability characteristics described in the LKG series data.
- Mechanical / Mounting — Snap‑in radial can package (φ20 × 30L) with tray packing; polarized configuration for PCB snap‑in mounting.
- RoHS compliant — Conforms to RoHS directive as stated for the LKG series.
- Identification — Marked with gold‑color lettering on a black sleeve for clear part identification.
Typical Applications
- High‑grade audio equipment — Intended for use in systems where the LKG series is specified to prioritize sound quality for HD audio designs.
- Audio power supply filtering — Bulk capacitance and a 1.7 A ripple rating support power‑supply smoothing in audio amplifier and preamplifier modules.
- Signal chain support in audio devices — Polarized snap‑in mounting provides a stable, serviceable capacitor option for rack‑mount or chassis‑mounted audio electronics.
Unique Advantages
- Designed for audio fidelity: TYPE‑I (Gold Tune) grade construction is targeted at high‑tone quality needs in HD audio equipment, supporting design priorities for sound reproduction.
- Robust ripple handling: 1.7 A low‑frequency ripple current at 120 Hz enables reliable performance in demanding audio power stages.
- Compact snap‑in form factor: φ20 × 30L radial snap‑in can fits chassis and PCB layouts where secure, serviceable mounting is required.
- Temperature and endurance specification: Rated −40°C to +85°C with a 1000‑hour endurance at 85°C, providing defined lifetime behavior for thermal planning.
- Clear part identification: Gold lettering on a black sleeve simplifies visual verification during assembly and maintenance.
- Regulatory compliance: RoHS compliance supports restricted‑substance requirements in product builds.
