Key Features
- Audio‑oriented LKG series (TYPE‑II / BK): Part of the LKG family specifically designed for audio equipment; the BK code corresponds to the TYPE‑II center grade tuned for sound quality using electrode foil construction.
- Electrical Performance: 1,000 µF nominal capacitance with ±20% tolerance and a 50 V rated voltage, suitable for power smoothing and bulk decoupling in audio circuits.
- Ripple Current Capacity: Rated for 1.5 A ripple current at 120 Hz, enabling robust handling of AC stress in power supply applications.
- Leakage Characteristic: Specified leakage current of 670 µA (product description) and datasheet guidance for leakage behavior (≤ 3√CV µA after 5 minutes at 20°C), providing predictable DC leakage for design calculations.
- Compact Snap‑In Package: Radial can, snap‑in mounting in a φ20 × 25 mm (diameter × length) package for firm board retention and straightforward assembly.
- Temperature & Endurance: Operates from −40°C to +85°C with an endurance rating of 1,000 hours at 85°C, with capacitance change and leakage specifications defined after endurance testing.
- Regulatory Compliance: RoHS‑compliant construction.
Typical Applications
- High‑grade Audio Equipment: Bulk energy storage and power smoothing in amplifiers and audio power supplies where sound quality is a priority.
- HD Audio Systems: Power decoupling and supply stabilization for HD audio playback and processing modules.
- Audio Power Supplies: Ripple filtering and transient buffering in discrete power supply stages for audio electronics.
Unique Advantages
- Audio‑focused design: As part of the LKG series and the TYPE‑II (BK) grade, the capacitor is specified with audio fidelity considerations tailored to high‑quality sound applications.
- High ripple tolerance for its size: 1.5 A ripple current rating at 120 Hz provides dependable AC stress handling in compact power circuits.
- Compact, secure mounting: Snap‑in radial can (φ20 × 25 mm) offers a small footprint with reliable mechanical retention on the PCB.
- Defined endurance and temperature range: Rated for −40°C to +85°C and 1,000 hours at 85°C, supporting predictable long‑term performance in specified conditions.
- RoHS compliance: Built to meet RoHS requirements for regulatory and environmental considerations.
