Overview of LKG1J272MESAAK – 2700 µF, 63 V Snap‑in Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor for Audio
The LKG1J272MESAAK is a snap‑in terminal aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon’s LKG series, specified at 2700 µF and 63 V with polarization. It is designed for audio equipment, providing an audio‑grade topology and construction tuned for high‑fidelity applications.
Key electrical and reliability characteristics include a tangent of loss angle (tan δ) of 0.3 (measured condition), a ripple current rating of 2.35 A at 120 Hz, leakage current specified at 1,230 µA, an operating temperature range of −40 °C to +85 °C, and an endurance rating of 1,000 hours at 85 °C. Note: part status is listed as End of Life.
Key Features
- Audio‑grade design (TYPE‑I / “Gold Tune”): Constructed per the LKG series TYPE‑I specification to prioritize tone quality and high‑fidelity performance in audio equipment.
- Nominal electrical ratings: 2,700 µF capacitance at 63 V rated voltage with ±20% tolerance, suitable for bulk filtering and decoupling in audio power circuits.
- Loss and ripple characteristics: Specified tan δ of 0.3 (measurement condition provided) and 2.35 A ripple current at 120 Hz for stable performance under AC ripple load.
- Leakage and endurance: Leakage current specified at 1,230 µA; endurance defined as 1,000 hours at 85 °C with capacitance, tan δ and leakage retention per LKG series criteria.
- Robust temperature range: Rated for −40 °C to +85 °C operation, aligning with typical audio electronics environments.
- Snap‑in mechanical package: Radial can with snap‑in terminals; physical size approximately 25 mm diameter × 35 mm length and supplied in tray packing.
- Regulatory note: RoHS‑compliant per the product listing.
Typical Applications
- High‑fidelity audio amplifiers: Bulk and reservoir capacitance for power rails where audio quality and low loss are priorities.
- Professional audio equipment: Power supply filtering and decoupling in mixers, preamps and studio electronics that require stable performance under ripple load.
