Overview of LKG1J272MESCBK – 63 V, 2700 µF Snap‑In Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor
The LKG1J272MESCBK is a Nichicon LKG‑series snap‑in aluminum electrolytic capacitor engineered for audio equipment. It offers a 2700 µF capacitance at a 63 V rating in a radial, snap‑in can designed for panel or board mounting in audio power sections.
Key electrical and mechanical attributes include a low‑frequency ripple current rating of 2.95 A (120 Hz), tanδ of 0.3 (measured at 20°C, 120 Hz), a rated endurance of 1000 hours at 85°C, an operating temperature range of −40°C to +85°C, and RoHS compliance. Note: product status is End Of Life.
Key Features
- Audio‑focused design — Part of the LKG series developed specifically for high‑grade audio equipment and HD audio use cases.
- Electrical performance — 2700 µF capacitance with tolerance −20%/+20% and a 63 V rated voltage suitable for higher‑voltage audio power rails.
- Ripple handling — Low‑frequency ripple current of 2.95 A at 120 Hz to support smoothing and reservoir duties in power supplies.
- Dielectric loss (tanδ) — tanδ = 0.3 measured at 20°C, 120 Hz, for predictable loss characteristics in audio circuits.
- Endurance and temperature range — Rated for 1000 hours at 85°C and specified to operate from −40°C to +85°C.
- Package & mounting — φ35 × 25 mm snap‑in radial can for secure mechanical mounting; supplied in tray packing for assembly handling.
