Overview of LKG1J272MESYAK – 2.7 mF (2700 µF), 63 V Snap‑In Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor
The Nichicon LKG1J272MESYAK is a snap‑in, radial aluminum electrolytic capacitor in the LKG series engineered for audio equipment. It provides 2.7 mF (2700 µF) capacitance at a 63 V rating in a φ20 × 50 mm can, intended for high‑grade audio applications where component characteristics are selected to support tone quality.
Key electrical and reliability attributes include a specified tanδ of 0.3 (measured at 20°C, 120 Hz), low‑frequency ripple current of 2.4 A (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. Packaging is tray packing. Status: End Of Life.
Key Features
- Core electrical specifications — 2.7 mF (2700 µF) capacitance with a 63 V rated voltage and capacitance tolerance of −20% to +20%.
- Audio‑focused loss characteristics — Specified tangent of loss angle (tanδ) of 0.3 at 20°C, 120 Hz supporting the series emphasis on audio tone quality.
- Ripple and leakage — Low‑frequency ripple current rating of 2.4 A (120 Hz) and a specified leakage current of 1,230 µA.
- Reliability and life — Endurance specified as 1,000 hours at 85°C; capacitors meet the listed endurance characteristics after restoration to 20°C.
- Mechanical and mounting — Snap‑in radial can, package size φ20 × 50 mm (L: 5 × D: 2 cm) with tray packing for board‑level assembly.
- Environmental compliance — RoHS compliant.
Typical Applications
- High‑grade audio systems — Intended for high‑fidelity audio equipment where component selection is focused on sound quality and tonal characteristics.
- Professional audio electronics — Sized and specified for designs that require substantial capacitance and defined ripple handling at 120 Hz.
- Audio manufacturing and assembly — Snap‑in radial can and tray packing support efficient placement in assembly processes for audio components.
Unique Advantages
- Substantial capacitance at medium voltage: 2.7 mF at 63 V provides large bulk capacitance in a compact φ20 × 50 mm package for audio circuitry.
- Defined audio‑oriented loss parameter: Specified tanδ (0.3 at 20°C, 120 Hz) aligns with the LKG series focus on tone quality for audio applications.
- Robust ripple handling: 2.4 A low‑frequency ripple current rating (120 Hz) supports designs that demand steady performance under ripple stress.
- Wide operating temperature range: −40°C to +85°C operation and a 1,000 hour endurance at 85°C provide predictable performance across common audio equipment environments.
- Assembly‑friendly packaging: Snap‑in radial can form factor and tray packing simplify board mounting and handling during production.
- Regulatory compliance: RoHS compliance supports use in equipment targeting regulated markets.
