Overview of LKG1H103MESCBK – Aluminum Electrolytic Snap-In Capacitor (10000 µF, 50 V)
The LKG1H103MESCBK is an aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a snap-in terminal (radial can) package, engineered for high-grade audio equipment. With a 10000 µF capacitance at 50 V and design priorities toward high-fidelity sound, it targets HD audio applications that demand reliable bulk capacitance and stable performance.
Key electrical and mechanical attributes include a tangent of loss angle (tan δ) of 0.3, a rated ripple current of 5.05 A (120 Hz), RoHS compliance, and an operating temperature range of -40 °C to +85 °C.
Key Features
- High Capacitance — 10000 µF nominal capacitance provides substantial charge storage for audio power stages and supply decoupling.
- Voltage Rating — Rated for 50 V to cover medium-voltage audio and power-supply applications.
- Low Loss Characteristic — Specified tan δ = 0.3 (measurement at 120 Hz, 20 °C) to support stable performance in audio circuits.
- Ripple Handling — Rated ripple current of 5.05 A at 120 Hz for continuous AC loading conditions typical in power supply filtering.
- Robust Temperature Range — Operates from -40 °C to +85 °C, with an endurance rating of 1000 hours at 85 °C.
- Snap-In / Radial Can Package — Snap-in terminal mount for secure board attachment in conventional power-supply and chassis-mounted audio equipment. Marked with gold color lettering on a black sleeve.
- Regulatory Compliance — RoHS compliant (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).
Typical Applications
- High-Grade Audio Amplifiers — Bulk capacitance for power-stage reservoirs in high-fidelity amplifier designs.
- HD Audio Equipment — Designed specifically to meet the tone-quality needs of HD Audio systems and professional audio gear.
- Audio Power Supplies — Snap-in mounting and 5.05 A ripple rating suit AC ripple smoothing and supply decoupling in audio power modules.
Unique Advantages
- Purpose-Built for Audio: Designed with priority on high-fidelity sound quality to satisfy HD Audio equipment requirements.
- High Energy Density: 10000 µF capacitance in a φ35 × 50 mm can provides significant storage without large chassis footprint.
- Thermal Endurance: Rated for 1000 hours at 85 °C, offering predictable life and stability under elevated operating temperatures.
- Clear Electrical Specification: Defined tan δ and ripple current ratings (0.3 and 5.05 A at 120 Hz) enable straightforward power-design margining.
- Regulatory Peace of Mind: RoHS compliance supports use in designs requiring restricted-substance conformance.
