Overview of LKG1J122MESYCK – Snap‑in Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor, 1200 µF · 63 V
The LKG1J122MESYCK is an aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a snap‑in radial can designed for audio applications. It delivers 1.2 mF (1200 µF) capacitance at a 63 V rating in a compact φ20 × 45 mm package.
Part of Nichicon's LKG series engineered for high‑grade audio equipment, this unit combines audio‑focused design with measurable electrical performance: significant ripple handling, low leakage characteristics, and a predictable 1000‑hour endurance at elevated temperature.
Key Features
- Capacitance & Voltage — 1.2 mF (1200 µF) rated at 63 V for bulk energy storage and decoupling in audio power stages.
- Snap‑in Radial Can Package — Snap‑in mounting for secure chassis or board installation in compact audio assemblies; package dimension φ20 × 45 mm (L: 4.5 × D: 2.0 cm).
- Ripple Current Handling — 2.35 A ripple current at 120 Hz, supporting power filtering and smoothing in audio power supplies.
- Low Leakage — Specified leakage current of 820 µA; series specification also documents leakage limits per the LKG series test conditions.
- Operating Temperature & Endurance — Rated for −40 °C to +85 °C with endurance specified as 1000 hours at 85 °C, providing predictable aging behavior for design validation.
- Polarized, ±20% Tolerance — Polar capacitor with capacitance tolerance of −20%/+20% (±20%) at 120 Hz, 20 °C.
- RoHS Compliant — Conforms to RoHS directive requirements as noted for the LKG series.
- Audiophile‑oriented Series Design — LKG series is specified for audio use and designed to prioritize high‑fidelity sound quality in HD audio equipment.
Typical Applications
- High‑grade Audio Equipment — Use in professional and consumer audio systems where fidelity and stable filtering are required.
- Audio Power Supplies — Bulk smoothing and decoupling in power supply sections for amplifiers and preamplifiers.
- HD Audio Systems — Component in signal chain power conditioning to help maintain tonal integrity in high‑resolution audio designs.
Unique Advantages
- Audio‑focused specification: From the LKG series, the part is engineered specifically for high‑tone quality audio applications.
- High ripple capability: 2.35 A at 120 Hz supports demanding filter and smoothing duties in audio power stages.
- Predictable endurance: Rated 1000 hours at 85 °C gives designers a defined lifecycle parameter for reliability planning.
- Compact snap‑in form factor: φ20 × 45 mm radial can provides high capacitance in a small footprint for space‑constrained audio assemblies.
- Controlled leakage: Specified leakage current (820 µA) and series leakage limits help maintain low noise and stable bias conditions in audio circuits.
- Regulatory compliance: RoHS status simplifies integration into products requiring restricted‑substance compliance.
