LKG1J562MESCBK

The LKG1J562MESCBK is an aluminum electrolytic snap‑in capacitor from Nichicon's LKG series, optimized for high‑grade audio equipment and applications that prioritize audio fidelity. It provides 5600 µF capacitance at a 63 V rating in a radial can snap‑in package designed for secure panel or chassis mounting.

Key electrical and reliability attributes include a ±20% capacitance tolerance (at 120 Hz, 20°C), a ripple current rating of 4.35 A (120 Hz), a specified tanδ of 0.3 (20°C, 120 Hz), and a rated life of 1000 hours at 85°C. The part is RoHS compliant and marked with gold lettering on a black sleeve as specified for the series.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 5600 µF nominal capacitance with a 63 V rated voltage suitable for higher‑voltage audio power supplies and headroom requirements.
• Tolerance & Loss — Capacitance tolerance ±20% (120 Hz, 20°C) and specified tanδ = 0.3 at 20°C, 120 Hz for predictable AC performance.
• High Ripple Current Handling — Rated ripple current of 4.35 A at 120 Hz to support smoothing and decoupling in power stages.
• Leakage & Endurance — Specified leakage current of 1780 µA and endurance rating of 1000 hours at 85°C with post‑test limits defined for capacitance, tanδ and leakage.
• Mounting & Package — Snap‑in terminal radial can package (φ35 × 40L) for secure chassis or board mounting and robust mechanical retention.
• Operating Range & Compliance — Designed for operation from −40°C to +85°C and compliant with RoHS (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).
• Audio‑Focused Design — Part of the LKG series developed for high‑grade audio equipment; the BK grade corresponds to the series’ TYPE‑II center grade.

Typical Applications

• High‑Fidelity Audio Amplifiers — Bulk energy storage and smoothing in amplifier power supplies where high capacitance and ripple handling support dynamic audio signals.
• Professional Studio and Pro‑Audio Equipment — Power supply filtering for mixers, preamps, and processing gear that require stable DC under varying loads.
• High‑Voltage Audio Power Supplies — Filtering and decoupling in design topologies that operate near the 63 V range for additional headroom.

Unique Advantages

• Large Capacitance at Elevated Voltage — 5600 µF at 63 V delivers substantial energy storage for audio power rails, reducing voltage sag during dynamic passages.
• Robust Ripple Handling — 4.35 A ripple rating (120 Hz) helps maintain low ripple under high‑current charging/discharging cycles.
• Designed for Audio Fidelity — LKG series design emphasis on high‑grade audio equipment supports applications where tonal quality and stability matter.
• Durability in Specified Environments — 1000 hour endurance at 85°C with defined post‑test limits provides predictable life behavior for thermal stress conditions.
• RoHS Compliant — Meets RoHS directive requirements for use in regulated markets.
• Secure Snap‑In Mounting — Radial, snap‑in can package enables reliable mechanical retention in chassis or PCB assemblies.
