LKG1E822MESCBK

The LKG1E822MESCBK is a snap‑in terminal aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon’s LKG series, specified at 8.2 mF (8200 µF) and 25 V. It is a TYPE‑III (Super Through) grade part tailored for high‑grade audio equipment, engineered to prioritize high‑fidelity sound and high tonal quality through gold‑plated terminals and optimized construction.

Designed for radial snap‑in mounting, this capacitor is sized for compact audio power and filter circuits (φ35 × 25 mm, seated height 2.5 cm) and is RoHS compliant.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 8.2 mF (8200 µF) at a rated voltage of 25 V, with a tolerance of ±20% (measured at 120 Hz, 20°C).
• TYPE‑III Super Through Grade — Highest tone quality grade in the LKG series; intended to meet high tone quality needs for HD audio equipment.
• Gold‑Plated Terminals — Gold‑plated snap‑in terminals reduce contact drag and support the TYPE‑III specification for improved tonal performance.
• Package & Mounting — Radial can, snap‑in terminal type with dimensions L: 2.5 cm × D: 3.5 cm (φ35 × 25 mm) and a seated height of 2.5 cm for secure PCB mounting.
• Operating Range & Lifetime — Rated for operation from −40°C to +85°C with an endurance rating of 1000 hours at 85°C under rated voltage conditions.
• Ripple Current & Low‑Frequency Performance — Ripple current specified at 3.05 A (120 Hz), suitable for audio power filtering at low frequencies.
• Leakage and Stability — Leakage current limit defined as not more than 3√(C·V) µA after 5 minutes at 20°C; impedance stability at low temperature: Z(−25°C)/Z(+20°C) ≤ 4 and Z(−40°C)/Z(+20°C) ≤ 12.
• Endurance Characteristics — After 1000 hours at 85°C with rated voltage applied and restoration to 20°C, capacitance change within ±20%, tan δ within 200% of initial specified value, and leakage current within initial specified value.
• Marking & Compliance — Marked with gold color lettering on a black sleeve and compliant with RoHS (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).

Typical Applications

• High‑Grade Audio Amplifiers — Used in power supply filtering and decoupling to support high‑fidelity audio reproduction and tonal stability.
• Audio Power Supply Rails — Bulk energy storage and smoothing for low‑frequency ripple control in audio systems, leveraging the 3.05 A ripple rating at 120 Hz.
• High‑Resolution Audio Equipment — Integration into HD audio signal chains where TYPE‑III tonal characteristics and gold‑plated terminals are prioritized.

Unique Advantages

• Audio‑Focused Grade: TYPE‑III (Super Through) designation and gold‑plated terminals specifically target high tone quality requirements in HD audio designs.
• Robust Thermal Endurance: 1000 hours rated life at 85°C under rated voltage for predictable long‑term performance in thermally demanding audio enclosures.
• Defined Low‑Temperature Behavior: Specified impedance ratios at −25°C and −40°C give designers clear expectations for low‑temperature performance.
• Clear Electrical Limits: Leakage current and tan δ endurance criteria are specified, enabling straightforward validation against design requirements.
• RoHS Compliance: Conforms to the RoHS directive (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863) for use in compliant audio products.
