Overview of LKG1H272MESYBK – Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor, Snap-in Terminal, 2.7 mF, 50 V
The Nichicon LKG1H272MESYBK is a snap-in aluminum electrolytic capacitor from the LKG series, optimized for audio equipment. It provides 2.7 mF (2700 μF) of capacitance at a 50 V rating in a radial, can-style snap-in package sized φ20 × 50 mm.
Designed with audio applications in mind, this polarized capacitor balances energy storage, ripple handling, and low-loss characteristics for use in high-grade and HD audio equipment operating between −40 °C and +85 °C.
Key Features
- Capacitance & Voltage — 2.7 mF (2700 μF) rated at 50 V with ±20% tolerance for predictable energy storage in audio power stages.
- Low-loss Behavior — Specified tan δ of 0.3 (measurement at 120 Hz, 20 °C) to help preserve signal integrity in audio circuits.
- Ripple and Leakage — Ripple current capability of 2.45 A at 120 Hz and a specified leakage current of 1100 μA, suitable for steady-state power smoothing in audio rails.
- Package & Mounting — Radial, can-style snap-in terminal package (φ20×50L) for secure chassis or board mounting and robust mechanical retention.
- Operating Range & Endurance — Rated for −40 °C to +85 °C with an endurance of 1000 hours at 85 °C when subjected to rated voltage.
- Audio-focused Design — Part of Nichicon’s LKG series developed for high-grade audio equipment, offering visual identification via gold-color lettering on a black sleeve.
Typical Applications
- High‑fidelity audio equipment — Used where stable energy reserve and low-loss characteristics support clean audio reproduction in HD audio devices.
- Professional audio systems — Suits power supply and rail decoupling duties in systems that prioritize sound quality and reliable performance across temperature.
- Audio amplification — Appropriate for amplifier power stages where a combination of capacitance, ripple handling, and low tan δ contributes to tonal consistency.
Unique Advantages
- Designed for audio quality — LKG series engineering targets high-grade and HD audio equipment, aligning capacitor characteristics with sonic requirements.
- Robust ripple handling — 2.45 A ripple rating at 120 Hz helps manage dynamic current demands typical in audio power supplies.
- Compact, serviceable package — φ20×50 mm snap-in can provides a compact footprint with secure mounting for chassis or board integration.
- Wide operating temperature — −40 °C to +85 °C range and 1000 h endurance at 85 °C support deployment in varied thermal environments.
- Clear visual identification — Gold lettering on a black sleeve aids quick part identification during assembly and service.
