LKG1H332MESZAK

The Nichicon LKG1H332MESZAK is a snap‑in terminal aluminum electrolytic capacitor engineered for audio equipment and high‑fidelity applications. It provides 3.3 mF (3300 µF) capacitance at a 50 V rated voltage in a compact φ22 × 35 mm can with snap‑in mounting.

Designed for power smoothing and energy storage in audio circuits, this component combines high ripple handling, low loss characteristics, and a specified endurance of 1000 hours at 85°C to support sustained operation in demanding audio environments.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 3.3 mF (3300 µF) rated capacitance with a 50 V working voltage and ±20% tolerance for bulk energy storage and decoupling in power rails.
• Low Loss Performance — Specified tangent of loss angle (tan δ) of 0.3, supporting lower dielectric losses for audio signal integrity.
• High Ripple Current — Rated ripple current of 2.2 A at 120 Hz, suitable for smoothing and filtering in power supplies serving audio amplifiers and related stages.
• Leakage Current — Product leakage current specified as 1210 µA; series guideline indicates leakage is measured per the series method (after 5 minutes, not more than 3√CV μA at 20°C).
• Snap‑In, Radial Can Package — Snap‑in terminal, radial can construction (φ22 × 35 mm) enabling secure chassis or chassis‑mount installation and robust mechanical retention.
• Operating Temperature & Endurance — Rated for −40°C to +85°C with an endurance rating of 1000 hours at 85°C, providing predictable performance over long operating intervals.
• Polarized Electrolytic — Conventional polarized electrolytic construction for use where directional capacitance is required.
• RoHS Compliant — Conforms to applicable RoHS requirements.

Typical Applications

• High‑Fidelity Audio Amplifiers — Bulk supply smoothing and decoupling to support stable power rails and reduce supply ripple in amplifier stages.
• Professional Audio Equipment — Energy storage and filtering for mixers, preamps, and other studio equipment where low loss and reliable ripple performance matter.
• Audio Power Supplies — Filtering and reservoir capacitance in linear and switch‑mode supply outputs tailored for audio circuits.

Unique Advantages

• High Ripple Handling: 2.2 A ripple current rating at 120 Hz lets the capacitor absorb significant AC components on power rails without excessive heating.
• Low Dissipation (tan δ = 0.3): Lower loss tangent supports reduced thermal stress and improved audio performance by minimizing dielectric losses.
• Compact Snap‑In Form Factor: φ22 × 35 mm radial can with snap‑in terminals provides a balance of capacitance density and secure mechanical mounting.
• Endurance at Elevated Temperature: 1000 hours at 85°C gives designers a predictable life expectation for continuous operation in warmer environments.
• Audio‑Focused Series Design: Part of Nichicon’s LKG series marketed for audio use, providing series‑level characteristics targeted at high‑tone quality applications.
• Regulatory Compliance: RoHS compliance supports use in designs requiring restricted‑substance adherence.
