LKG1E682MESZAK

The LKG1E682MESZAK is an aluminum electrolytic, snap‑in terminal capacitor engineered for audio applications. It delivers 6.8 mF (6800 µF) capacitance at a 25 V rating in a compact φ22 × 30 mm can suitable for snap‑in mounting.

Designed with audio use in mind and series-level specifications for high‑grade audio equipment, this capacitor provides bulk energy storage, smoothing, and ripple handling for audio power supplies and related circuitry while meeting RoHS requirements.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 6.8 mF (6800 µF) nominal capacitance with a 25 V rated voltage and ±20% tolerance, offering significant bulk storage for low‑frequency smoothing in audio power stages.
• Snap‑in Radial Can — Snap‑in terminal mounting in a radial can package for secure board attachment and simplified installation in power supply assemblies.
• Audio‑Focused Design — Part of the LKG series designed for high‑grade audio equipment; intended to prioritize sound quality in audio circuits.
• Ripple and Leakage — Rated ripple current of 2.2 A at 120 Hz; listed leakage current value of 1230 µA (product listing). The series datasheet specifies leakage measurement criteria (see datasheet for test conditions).
• Temperature & Endurance — Operating temperature range −40 °C to +85 °C with an endurance rating of 1000 hours at 85 °C; after endurance testing, capacitance change remains within ±20% and leakage current meets series limits.
• Physical Size & Mounting — Compact footprint: diameter 22 mm, length 30 mm (approx. 3.0 × 2.2 cm dimensions) and snap‑in mounting for robust mechanical retention.
• Compliance & Marking — RoHS‑compliant; series marking is printed in gold on a black sleeve per datasheet convention.
• Packaging & Status — Supplied in tray packing; product status indicated as End of Life on the product listing.

Typical Applications

• Audio Power Supplies — Bulk filtering and smoothing for amplifiers and audio power stages, using the 6800 µF capacitance and 2.2 A ripple rating to stabilize supply rails.
• High‑Fidelity Audio Equipment — Intended for use in high‑grade audio equipment where series design priorities target tone quality and sound reproduction.
• DC Filtering — Energy storage and decoupling in DC power circuits for audio signal chains, benefiting from the capacitor’s endurance rating at elevated temperature.

Unique Advantages

• Audio‑oriented series design: The LKG series is specified for audio use, aligning component selection with sound‑quality focused designs.
• High bulk capacitance: 6.8 mF of capacitance provides substantial energy reserve for low‑frequency smoothing and transient support in power supplies.
• Solid ripple handling: 2.2 A ripple current at 120 Hz helps reduce voltage fluctuation under AC ripple conditions typical in power supply outputs.
• Wide operating range: −40 °C to +85 °C operation and 1000‑hour endurance at 85 °C provide predictable performance across common audio equipment environments.
• Compact snap‑in form factor: φ22 × 30 mm radial can with snap‑in terminals simplifies PCB retention while conserving board area.
• RoHS compliant: Meets RoHS directive requirements for environmental compliance in equipment manufacturing.
