Overview of LKG1J272MESBAK – Snap‑in Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor, 2.7 mF, 63 V
The LKG1J272MESBAK is an aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a snap‑in radial can designed for audio equipment. It delivers 2.7 mF (2700 μF) capacitance at a 63 V rating with a polarized snap‑in terminal intended for secure PCB mounting.
Engineered within Nichicon's LKG series for audio use, this part emphasizes high fidelity performance with a compact φ30 × 25 mm package, RoHS compliance, and endurance specified for 1000 hours at 85°C.
Key Features
- Electrical Core – Rated capacitance 2.7 mF (2700 μF) with a rated voltage of 63 V and capacitance tolerance of ±20% at 120 Hz, 20°C.
- Audio‑Focused Design – Part of Nichicon's LKG series specified "For Audio Use" and described as designed for high‑grade audio equipment prioritizing high‑fidelity sound quality.
- Package & Mounting – Snap‑in terminal, radial can construction (φ30 × 25 mm), tray packing for handling and assembly.
- Temperature & Lifetime – Operating temperature range −40°C to +85°C with endurance specified as 1000 hours at 85°C (capacitance change within ±20% after test).
- Ripple and Leakage – Rated ripple current 2.5 A at 120 Hz; specified leakage current value listed as 1230 μA and general leakage guidance per datasheet (after 5 minutes at 20°C not more than 3√CV μA).
- Loss and Low‑Temperature Stability – Specified tangent of loss angle (tan δ) 0.30 (measurement at 120 Hz, 20°C); impedance ratios for low temperatures listed in the series specification (Z(−25°C)/Z(+20°C) ≤ 4, Z(−40°C)/Z(+20°C) ≤ 12).
- Marking – Printed with gold color letters on a black sleeve for clear identification.
Typical Applications
- Professional audio equipment – Bulk energy storage and power supply smoothing for high‑fidelity amplifiers and audio systems where stable supply rails support sound quality.
- Audio amplifier power rails – Reservoir and decoupling duties on amplifier boards benefiting from the 63 V rating and 2.5 A ripple handling at 120 Hz.
- High‑grade consumer audio devices – Use in devices that emphasize tone quality and sonic consistency, leveraging the LKG series’ audio‑optimized design.
