LKG1J222MESZAK

The LKG1J222MESZAK is a Nichicon LKG series aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a snap‑in (lug) terminal package, specified at 2200 µF and 63 V. It is engineered for audio equipment applications where stable bulk energy storage and low loss are important to preserve signal fidelity.

This snap‑in radial can offers a compact φ22 × 35 mm profile, polarized construction, and performance data—including 2.2 A ripple current capability and a 1000‑hour endurance rating at 85°C—that suit power filtering and smoothing duties in high‑grade audio systems and related electronics.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 2.2 mF (2200 µF) rated at 63 V provides substantial bulk storage for power supply smoothing and decoupling in audio circuits.
• Snap‑In Package — Radial, can‑type snap‑in mounting for secure PCB anchoring in power assemblies; package dimensions φ22 × 35 mm (L: 3.5 cm × D: 2.2 cm).
• Ripple & Loss Characteristics — Rated ripple current 2.2 A at 120 Hz and tangent of loss angle (tan δ) 0.3, enabling effective handling of AC ripple while maintaining low dissipation.
• Leakage Current — Specified leakage current 1110 µA, with endurance requirements ensuring leakage remains within initial limits after the rated life test.
• Temperature & Lifetime — Operating range −40°C to +85°C with a 1000‑hour lifetime at 85°C; endurance criteria include capacitance change within ±20% and tan δ within 200% of initial value after test.
• Audio‑Focused Design — Part of the LKG series developed for high‑grade audio equipment; sleeve marking uses gold on black for clear identification.
• Regulatory Compliance — RoHS‑compliant construction.

Typical Applications

• High‑Fidelity Audio Amplifiers — Bulk smoothing and power reservoir duties to support stable rail voltages and reduce power‑supply ripple in amplifier stages.
• Studio and Consumer Audio Equipment — Power filtering in preamplifiers, DAC power supplies, and other audio components where low loss and reliable lifetime are required.
• Power Supply Modules for Audio Systems — Energy storage and decoupling in regulated and unregulated supplies within audio electronics.

Unique Advantages

• Audio‑Oriented Specification: Designed within the LKG series for audio use, aligning component characteristics with high‑fidelity equipment requirements.
• High Ripple Handling: 2.2 A ripple current rating at 120 Hz supports demanding power supply conditions common in audio amplifiers.
• Compact Snap‑In Form Factor: φ22 × 35 mm snap‑in can simplifies board retention for high‑current assemblies while minimizing footprint.
• Endurance Validated: 1000 hours at 85°C life test with defined limits for capacitance, tan δ, and leakage current to help ensure predictable long‑term performance.
• RoHS Compliance: Meets RoHS requirements for environmental and manufacturing process compatibility.
