Overview of LKG1J472MESAAK – Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor (TYPE‑I, Snap‑In)
The LKG1J472MESAAK is an aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon’s LKG series, engineered for high-grade audio equipment. This part is a TYPE‑I, low‑profile, high‑tone quality grade that uses a newly developed electrolyte to prioritize high‑fidelity sound quality in audio applications.
Built in a radial can with snap‑in terminals, the capacitor delivers 4.7 mF capacitance at a 63 V rating and is suitable for audio power filtering and decoupling within the specified operating and endurance limits. It is RoHS compliant.
Key Features
- Audio‑Focused Electrochemistry (TYPE‑I) Low‑profile, high‑tone quality grade with a newly developed electrolyte designed to emphasize high‑fidelity audio performance.
- Capacitance and Voltage 4.7 mF nominal capacitance with a 63 V rated voltage and ±20% tolerance for power filtering and energy storage in audio circuits.
- Snap‑In Radial Can Package Radial, can‑style housing with snap‑in terminals for robust mechanical retention and ease of insertion into power modules or chassis assemblies.
- Temperature and Endurance Operates from −40°C to +85°C with an endurance rating of 1000 hours at 85°C when used under rated conditions.
- Ripple Current Capability Rated ripple current of 3.2 A at 120 Hz, supporting power supply smoothing and bulk filtering in audio power stages.
- Polarized Construction Polarized electrolytic design for DC power circuits common in amplifier and audio power supply topologies.
- Regulatory Compliance Compliant with the RoHS directive (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).
Typical Applications
- High‑grade Audio Amplifiers Bulk filtering and decoupling for amplifier power rails where high‑fidelity sound reproduction is required.
- HD Audio Equipment Power supply smoothing in high‑definition playback systems and professional audio gear to support clear, low‑noise output.
- Audio Power Supply Modules Energy storage and ripple suppression in power modules serving preamplifiers, DACs, and other audio front‑end circuitry.
Unique Advantages
- Audio‑tuned Electrolyte: TYPE‑I new development electrolyte focuses on tone quality to support high‑fidelity audio performance.
- Compact, Snap‑In Packaging: Radial can with snap‑in terminals provides secure mounting and straightforward assembly into audio power assemblies.
- High Ripple Handling: 3.2 A ripple current at 120 Hz helps maintain low ripple voltages under dynamic audio loads.
- Wide Operating Range: −40°C to +85°C operation with a 1000‑hour endurance rating at 85°C gives predictable, tested lifetime behavior within specified conditions.
- Regulatory Confidence: RoHS compliance supports environmentally conscious product designs.
