LKG1J102MESYBK

The LKG1J102MESYBK is a snap‑in, polarized aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon's LKG series, specified at 1000 µF and 63 V. It is part of the LKG audio‑focused family designed for high‑grade audio equipment and prioritizes sound quality characteristics defined by the series.

This part is delivered in a radial snap‑in can (φ20 × 30 mm) with tray packing and is rated for operation from −40 °C to +85 °C with an endurance rating of 1000 hours at 85 °C. Status: End Of Life.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Tolerance — 1000 µF nominal capacitance with a tolerance of −20% to +20% (measured at 120 Hz, 20 °C).
• Rated Voltage — 63 V DC rating suitable for mid‑voltage power rails in audio equipment.
• Low‑frequency ripple handling — 1.85 A ripple current specified at 120 Hz, supporting power supply smoothing and low‑frequency filtering.
• Dielectric loss (tan δ) — tan δ = 0.3 measured at 20 °C, 120 Hz, enabling designers to assess AC dissipation characteristics.
• Leakage current — 750 µA specified, measurable after rated voltage application conditions.
• Mechanical & mounting — Snap‑in radial can (φ20 × 30 mm) for secure board mounting in power assemblies.
• Temperature and endurance — Operating range −40 °C to +85 °C with endurance of 1000 hours at 85 °C per series specification.
• Audio‑grade family — Part of the Nichicon LKG series, which is designed for audio use and optimized for sound quality (TYPE‑II / BK grade in the series).
• Compliance & marking — RoHS compliant; marked with gold color lettering on a black sleeve per series marking convention.

Typical Applications

• High‑fidelity audio amplifiers — Bulk filtering and power supply decoupling where 1000 µF and a 63 V rating are needed for stable low‑frequency performance.
• Professional audio equipment power supplies — Smoothing and ripple reduction in mixers, preamps, and studio gear that require audio‑grade components.
• Audio electronics modules — Local energy storage and decoupling on board‑level power rails benefiting from the snap‑in mounting and specified ripple current.

Unique Advantages

• Audio‑focused design — As part of the LKG series, the capacitor is engineered with series characteristics intended for high‑grade audio equipment and sound quality considerations.
• Measurable ripple capability — Rated 1.85 A at 120 Hz gives designers a clear basis for selecting this capacitor for low‑frequency ripple management.
• Compact snap‑in package — φ20 × 30 mm radial can with snap‑in terminals simplifies mounting and mechanical retention in power assemblies.
• Defined endurance — 1000 hours at 85 °C endurance provides a known lifecycle parameter for thermal stress planning.
• Regulatory compliance — RoHS compliant, supporting environmental and regulatory requirements.
• Consistent identification — Gold‑lettering on a black sleeve facilitates visual identification in production and service environments.
