Overview of LKG1K152MESBCK – 1500 µF, 80 V Snap-In Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor
The LKG1K152MESBCK is a Nichicon LKG-series snap-in aluminum electrolytic capacitor engineered for audio equipment. It provides 1500 µF capacitance at an 80 V rating in a radial can snap‑in package tailored for high‑fidelity audio applications.
Designed for use in high‑grade audio systems, this capacitor combines high ripple handling and a specified endurance at elevated temperature with RoHS compliance, making it suitable for power‑filtering and decoupling tasks in professional and consumer audio electronics.
Key Features
- Capacitance & Voltage — 1.5 mF (1500 µF) rated at 80 V for energy storage and smoothing in high‑voltage audio power rails.
- Audio‑focused Design — Part of the Nichicon LKG series specified "for audio use" and intended for high‑fidelity audio equipment.
- Mounting & Package — Snap‑in terminal, radial can package (φ30 × 40L) for secure board retention and straightforward installation in chassis or board assemblies.
- Electrical Performance — Ripple current capability of 3.2 A at 120 Hz and a listed leakage current of 1030 µA; capacitance tolerance is ±20% (–20% to +20%).
- Temperature & Endurance — Operating range from –40 °C to +85 °C with a rated endurance of 1000 hours at 85 °C.
- Regulatory — RoHS compliant as indicated in the product data.
- Physical Size — Compact form factor: approximately 30 mm diameter × 40 mm length (listed size 4 × 3 cm), useful where board space and height are constrained.
Typical Applications
- High‑fidelity audio amplifiers — Power supply smoothing and bulk decoupling to support clean, stable rails for low‑noise audio amplification stages.
- Professional audio equipment — Filtering and energy storage in mixers, processors, and studio gear where audio‑grade components are specified.
- Audio power supplies — Handling ripple currents (3.2 A at 120 Hz) and providing endurance for sustained operation at elevated temperatures.
Unique Advantages
- Audio‑oriented series design — LKG series focus on audio applications, aligning component selection with high‑fidelity system requirements.
- High voltage capability — 80 V rating enables use on higher‑voltage audio power rails and larger amplifier topologies.
- Strong ripple handling — 3.2 A ripple current rating at 120 Hz supports robust filtering under dynamic audio loads.
- Temperature and endurance specification — Rated for –40 °C to +85 °C with 1000 hours endurance at 85 °C for predictable lifetime behavior in demanding environments.
- Compact snap‑in package — Radial, snap‑in can (φ30 × 40L) for reliable mechanical retention and straightforward assembly in chassis or PCB layouts.
- RoHS compliance — Conforms to RoHS requirements for regulated material content.
