LKG1J122MESZCK

The LKG1J122MESZCK is a Nichicon LKG series aluminum electrolytic capacitor engineered for high‑grade audio equipment. This part is the TYPE‑III "Super Through" grade with gold‑plated terminals and a snap‑in terminal package designed to prioritize high fidelity sound quality for HD audio applications.

With a rated capacitance of 1200 µF at 63 V, a −20%/+20% tolerance and a −40 °C to +85 °C operating range, the LKG1J122MESZCK combines audio‑focused performance parameters with a snap‑in radial can for robust board mounting and production handling (tray packaging).

Key Features

• Audio‑Focused Grade (TYPE‑III Super Through) Highest tone‑quality grade in the LKG family, featuring gold‑plated terminals to support the series’ highest tone quality objective.
• Electrical Performance 1200 µF capacitance at 63 V with ±20% tolerance, tanδ specified at 0.22, and leakage current specified at 820 µA for controlled DC characteristics.
• Power Handling Rated ripple current of 2.25 A at 120 Hz (2250 mA) to support demanding audio power supply filtering and decoupling tasks.
• Reliability & Lifetime 1000 hours endurance at 85 °C with specified limits on capacitance change, tanδ, and leakage current after the endurance test.
• Mechanical & Packaging Snap‑in radial can (22 mm diameter × 40 mm length) for secure PCB mounting; supplied in trays for production readiness.
• Environmental Compliance RoHS compliant (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).

Typical Applications

• High‑Grade Audio Amplifiers Used for power supply filtering and decoupling in amplifiers where component selection targets improved sound fidelity.
• HD Audio Equipment Suited to premium audio systems and components that require capacitors specified and graded for tone quality.
• Preamp and Signal Chain Power Provides stable DC smoothing and ripple handling in sensitive front‑end and preamplifier circuits.

Unique Advantages

• TYPE‑III Audio Tuning: The Super Through grade is specified for the highest tone quality within the LKG series, addressing designers focused on audible performance.
• Gold‑Plated Terminals: Gold plating on terminals supports the TYPE‑III grade’s tone‑quality objective and robust electrical contact characteristics.
• High Ripple Capability: 2.25 A ripple current rating at 120 Hz supports effective smoothing in audio power rails under dynamic load.
• Designed Endurance: 1000‑hour life at 85 °C provides a measurable reliability baseline for long‑term audio equipment operation.
• Production‑Friendly Packaging: Tray packaging and snap‑in radial can form factor simplify handling and assembly for medium‑to‑high volume production.
• Regulatory Compliance: RoHS conformity helps meet environmental and regulatory requirements for commercial audio products.

Why Choose LKG1J122MESZCK?

The LKG1J122MESZCK positions itself for designers of high‑grade and HD audio equipment who need a capacitor specified around audio‑centric performance parameters: 1200 µF at 63 V, a TYPE‑III grading with gold‑plated terminals, and a ripple current rating that supports power‑rail smoothing under dynamic audio loads. Its snap‑in radial can and tray packaging ease mechanical integration and production handling.

For projects where tone quality, measured electrical characteristics (tanδ, leakage), and a defined endurance life at elevated temperature are important selection criteria, this Nichicon TYPE‑III snap‑in capacitor offers a focused option within the LKG family.
