LKG1H562MESZAK

The LKG1H562MESZAK is an aluminum electrolytic, snap-in terminal capacitor engineered for high-grade audio applications. It delivers 5600 µF capacitance at a 50 V rating with a ±20% tolerance and is optimized to support high-fidelity and HD audio equipment.

Packaged in a radial can with snap-in terminals, this capacitor combines compact dimensions (22 mm diameter × 50 mm length) with endurance and defined electrical characteristics—making it suitable for audio power filtering and decoupling where tone quality and reliable performance matter.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 5600 µF nominal capacitance rated at 50 V with ±20% tolerance to support energy storage and smoothing in audio power circuits.
• Audio‑focused design — Designed specifically for high-grade audio and HD Audio equipment, prioritizing fidelity and tone quality.
• Package & Mounting — Radial can, snap-in terminal package for secure PCB mounting and mechanical stability in chassis-mounted audio assemblies.
• Electrical loss — Specified tangent of loss angle (tan δ) of 0.3 (measurement frequency reference 120 Hz at 20°C as per series datasheet), enabling predictable AC behavior in audio circuits.
• Ripple capability — Rated ripple current of 2.9 A at 120 Hz to handle AC stress typical of power supply filtering in audio amplifiers.
• Polarized — Polar capacitor construction for correct installation in DC-biased circuits.
• Operating range & reliability — Operating temperature −40°C to +85°C with an endurance rating of 1000 hours at 85°C under rated voltage conditions.
• Leakage current specification — Leakage current limit defined by the series specification (after 5 minutes at rated voltage at 20°C, not more than 3√CV μA), providing a verifiable acceptance criterion for circuit designers.
• RoHS compliant — Conforms to RoHS directives (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).
• Identification — Marked with gold lettering on a black sleeve for clear visual identification.

Typical Applications

• High‑grade audio equipment — Provides bulk energy storage and smoothing in preamplifiers, power amplifiers, and other components where tonal fidelity is a priority.
• HD Audio systems — Supports the power supply filtering needs of HD Audio devices to help maintain stable supply rails under dynamic audio loads.
• Professional audio amplifiers — Used in power stages and supply reservoirs where defined ripple handling and endurance are required.

Unique Advantages

• Audio‑centric engineering: Specifically designed to meet high tone quality requirements for HD Audio and high‑grade audio equipment.
• High capacitance at moderate voltage: 5600 µF at 50 V provides substantial energy storage for smoothing and decoupling in audio power rails.
• Snap‑in radial package: Robust snap‑in mounting simplifies mechanical assembly and secures the capacitor in panel or PCB-mounted audio enclosures.
• Defined electrical limits: Tangent of loss angle and ripple current are specified, enabling predictable performance integration into audio designs.
• Durability under rated conditions: 1000 hours at 85°C endurance rating supports reliable operation in typical ambient conditions for audio equipment.
• Regulatory compliance: RoHS conformity supports deployment in regions requiring restricted substance compliance.
