The LKG1K332MESCCK is a snap-in aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon’s LKG series designed for audio equipment. It provides 3.3 mF (3300 µF) capacitance at an 80 V rating in a radial, can-style snap-in package optimized for high‑fidelity audio applications.

Engineered for reliability in audio power and filtering roles, this part combines high capacitance, a measured low-loss characteristic, and a form factor suitable for board-mounted snap-in installations.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 3.3 mF (3300 µF) rated at 80 V for bulk energy storage and smoothing in audio power rails.
• Low Loss (tan δ) — Specified tan δ of 0.2 (measured at 120 Hz, 20°C), supporting stable audio performance with controlled dissipation.
• Ripple Handling — Rated ripple current of 5.05 A at 120 Hz for effective AC ripple filtering in power supply circuits.
• Package & Mounting — Radial can, snap-in mounting type for secure board retention and straightforward assembly into audio chassis and power modules.
• Temperature Range & Endurance — Operating range of −40°C to +85°C with endurance characterized as 1000 hours at 85°C; capacitance and leakage limits are defined for long-term use under rated conditions.
• Polarized Design — Polarized aluminum electrolytic construction for DC power filtering and bulk decoupling.
• RoHS Compliant — Meets RoHS directive requirements as indicated in the product documentation.
• Leakage Current Specification — Leakage current limit defined by the datasheet formula: after 5 minutes at rated voltage and 20°C, ILeak ≤ 3√(C·V) µA.

Typical Applications

• High‑Fidelity Amplifiers — Bulk supply smoothing and power reservoir to support low-noise, high-dynamic-range audio amplification.
• Audio Power Supplies — Input and output filtering for switching or linear supplies feeding audio stages where high capacitance and ripple handling are required.
• Professional Audio Equipment — Use in mixers, preamps, and studio hardware where stable filtering and audio-grade component selection are important.

Unique Advantages
