Overview of LKG1H122MESCCK – Snap‑In Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor for Audio, 1200 µF, 50 V
The LKG1H122MESCCK is a snap‑in, large‑can aluminum electrolytic capacitor engineered for high‑grade audio equipment. It is a TYPE‑III (Super Through) grade from the LKG series, designed with features that prioritize high‑fidelity sound characteristics.
This capacitor provides 1200 µF capacitance at a 50 V rating, a low‑frequency ripple current rating of 1.9 A (120 Hz), a measured tanδ of 0.22 (20 °C, 120 Hz), and an endurance rating of 1000 hours at 85 °C—making it suitable for audio power circuits where stable filtering and low loss are required.
Key Features
- Audio‑grade performance Designed for high‑grade audio equipment with emphasis on fidelity; part of the LKG series focused on tone quality.
- TYPE‑III (Super Through) grade TYPE‑III designation (CK) indicates the Super Through grade with gold‑plated terminal construction as specified in the series documentation.
- Electrical characteristics 1200 µF nominal capacitance with ±20% tolerance, rated at 50 V, and tangent of loss angle (tanδ) of 0.22 measured at 20 °C, 120 Hz.
- High ripple capability Low‑frequency ripple current of 1.9 A at 120 Hz supports robust smoothing and decoupling in power stages of audio equipment.
- Leakage current Rated leakage current of 730 µA (measured condition as provided in product data).
- Reliability and endurance Endurance of 1000 hours at 85 °C with specification limits for capacitance, tanδ and leakage after the endurance test.
- Package & mounting Snap‑in radial can package (φ35 × 20 mm) for secure PCB mounting; supplied in tray packing.
- Operating temperature range −40 °C to +85 °C suitable for typical audio equipment operating environments.
- Environmental compliance RoHS compliant as indicated in the product documentation.
Typical Applications
- High‑fidelity audio amplifiers — Bulk smoothing and power supply filtering where 1200 µF at 50 V supports stable rails for audio stages.
- Professional audio equipment — Use in mixing consoles, studio gear and other pro audio devices that demand low loss and audio‑oriented capacitor characteristics.
- Power supply decoupling for audio systems — Provides ripple absorption and transient support in audio power chains with a 1.9 A ripple capability at 120 Hz.
Unique Advantages
- Audio‑focused design — Part of the LKG series developed to prioritize tone quality and high‑fidelity performance for audio applications.
- TYPE‑III Super Through grade — The CK grade indicates the higher tone quality construction with gold‑plated terminal features described in the series documentation.
- Measured low loss — tanδ of 0.22 (20 °C, 120 Hz) supports efficient energy storage with controlled dissipation in audio circuits.
- High ripple handling — 1.9 A ripple current rating at 120 Hz enables effective smoothing in power stages subject to audio load variations.
- Compact snap‑in package — φ35 × 20 mm radial can with snap‑in terminals provides a compact footprint and secure mounting for chassis or PCB assemblies.
- Proven endurance — 1000 hours at 85 °C life rating gives predictable behavior over extended operation at elevated temperature.
