LKG1K102MESBCK

The LKG1K102MESBCK is a Nichicon LKG series aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a snap‑in (lug) terminal can package, specified at 1000 µF and 80 V. It is designed for audio equipment applications where stable bulk capacitance and low loss at audio frequencies are required.

Key value propositions include a high capacitance density in a compact φ30 × 30 mm can, low tangent of loss angle for audio fidelity, and a rated operating range suitable for demanding audio power circuits.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 1000 µF nominal capacitance at a rated voltage of 80 V, with a tolerance of ±20%.
• Low Loss Characteristics — Tangent of loss angle (tan δ) specified at 0.2 (measured at 120 Hz, 20°C), supporting lower dissipation in audio frequency service.
• Ripple Handling — Ripple current capability of 2.6 A at 120 Hz, suitable for smoothing and decoupling in power rails.
• Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 840 µA, aligned with electrolytic performance expectations.
• Thermal & Lifetime — Operating temperature range −40°C to +85°C with endurance rated at 1000 hours at 85°C.
• Package & Mounting — Radial, snap‑in can (φ30 × 30 mm) for secure board mounting and mechanical retention; tray packing for handling.
• Polarized Device — Electrolytic, polarized capacitor intended for DC applications.
• RoHS Compliance — Compliant with RoHS directive as noted in product documentation.

Typical Applications

• High‑Fidelity Audio Equipment — Bulk filtering and energy storage in amplifier and preamplifier power supplies where low loss and audio quality are priorities.
• Audio Power Rails — Smoothing and decoupling on high‑voltage supply lines in professional and consumer audio systems.
• Power Supply Reservoir — Local energy reservoir in systems requiring compact, high‑value capacitance at elevated voltages.

Unique Advantages

• High Voltage Capability: 80 V rating enables use on higher‑voltage audio and power circuits without series stacking.
• Audio‑Focused Design: Part of the LKG series developed for audio use, emphasizing low loss and sound quality considerations.
• Robust Ripple Performance: 2.6 A ripple current rating at 120 Hz supports active power supply filtering in demanding audio applications.
