LKG1K332MESBBK

The LKG1K332MESBBK is a snap‑in aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon's LKG series, engineered for audio equipment and high‑fidelity applications. It delivers 3300 µF capacitance at an 80 V rating in a radial snap‑in can (φ30 × 50 mm), providing bulk energy storage and power‑supply smoothing in audio electronics.

Designed for engineering use, this capacitor combines measured AC loss characteristics and ripple handling with a robust -40 °C to +85 °C operating window and a specified 1000‑hour endurance at 85 °C.

Key Features

• Capacitance and Tolerance — 3300 µF (3.3 mF) with tolerance of -20% to +20%, suitable for bulk filtering and reservoir duties in power rails.
• Rated Voltage — 80 V DC rating for higher‑voltage audio power supplies and elevated bus voltages.
• Loss Angle (tan δ) — tanδ of 0.25 measured at 20 °C, 120 Hz, providing a defined dissipation characteristic for design calculations.
• Low‑Frequency Ripple Handling — 4.1 A ripple current rating at 120 Hz, enabling effective smoothing of low‑frequency rectified waveforms.
• Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 1540 µA under rated conditions, useful for bias and standby current budgeting.
• Endurance and Temperature — Rated for 1000 hours at 85 °C with operating range from -40 °C to +85 °C, supporting longevity in thermally stressed designs.
• Mounting and Package — Snap‑in radial can (φ30 × 50 mm) for secure board installation; supplied in tray packing for handling and assembly.
• Audio‑Focused Series — Part of the LKG series specifically designed for audio equipment, with materials and construction targeted at high‑grade audio performance.

Typical Applications

• High‑Grade Audio Amplifiers — Bulk reservoir and power‑supply filtering to support stable supply rails for analog audio stages.
• Audio Power Supplies — Smoothing and ripple reduction in linear or discrete rectified supplies for audio equipment.
• Professional Audio Equipment — Energy storage and decoupling in mixers, preamps, and reference supplies where defined loss and ripple specs matter.

Unique Advantages

• High Voltage Capability: 80 V rating lets designers use the capacitor on higher DC rails without compromising capacitance.
• Defined Dissipation Characteristics: tanδ = 0.25 (20 °C, 120 Hz) provides a measurable basis for thermal and loss budgeting in audio designs.
• Robust Ripple Performance: 4.1 A low‑frequency ripple rating supports demanding rectifier and filter applications common in audio power stages.
• Extended Endurance: 1000 hours at 85 °C offers predictable lifetime behavior for reliability planning in long‑life audio equipment.
• Snap‑In Package for Assembly: Radial snap‑in can with tray packing simplifies mechanical retention and board population in production environments.
• Audio‑Centric Series Design: As part of the LKG line, the part is tailored for high‑fidelity audio use, aligning materials and construction with audio performance priorities.
