Overview of LKG1K821MESACK – Aluminum Electrolytic Snap-In Capacitor, 820 µF, 80 V
The LKG1K821MESACK is an aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a snap‑in radial can designed for audio applications. It delivers 820 µF of capacitance at an 80 V rating with a ±20% tolerance, aimed at use in high‑grade audio equipment where sound quality is a priority.
Built on Nichicon’s LKG series, this snap‑in device combines electrical performance (low loss, high ripple capability) with reliability metrics suitable for sustained operation up to 85°C.
Key Features
- Capacitance & Voltage — 820 µF nominal capacitance with an 80 V rated voltage and ±20% tolerance (measured at 120 Hz, 20°C).
- Low Loss — Specified tangent of loss angle (tan δ) of 0.2, supporting stable performance in audio circuits.
- High Ripple Current — Rated ripple current of 2.35 A at 120 Hz for robust AC handling in filter and smoothing roles.
- Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 760 µA for predictable bias performance.
- Temperature & Endurance — Operating range −40°C to +85°C with an endurance rating of 1000 hours at 85°C.
- Package & Mounting — Snap‑in terminal, radial can package in a compact φ25 × 35 mm length footprint; supplied in tray packing.
- Audio‑Focused Design — Part of Nichicon’s LKG series developed for high‑grade and HD audio equipment, prioritizing high‑fidelity sound quality.
- Environmental Compliance — RoHS compliant.
Typical Applications
- High‑grade audio equipment — Suited for applications where component selection prioritizes fidelity and tonal characteristics.
- HD audio systems — Designed for use in systems targeting high‑resolution audio reproduction.
- Audio equipment power modules — Appropriate for power filtering and smoothing in audio-focused power supplies where ripple handling and low loss are important.
Unique Advantages
- Voltage headroom for demanding designs: 80 V rating provides margin for higher‑voltage audio and power sections.
- Designed for audio fidelity: LKG series background emphasizes high‑tone quality, making this capacitor a specification‑driven choice for sound‑sensitive circuits.
