LKG1V102MESZCK

The LKG1V102MESZCK is an aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon's LKG series, configured with a snap‑in (lug) terminal for secure panel or chassis mounting. It provides 1000 µF capacitance at a 35 V rating in a compact φ22 × 25 mm can, and is a polarized device intended for audio applications.

Positioned for high‑grade audio equipment, this capacitor combines defined electrical characteristics—such as a specified loss tangent and ripple current rating—with a 1000‑hour endurance at 85°C to support power‑supply smoothing and filtering in audio circuits.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage: 1000 µF rated at 35 V for energy storage and smoothing in audio power rails.
• Capacitance Tolerance & Polarity: ±20% tolerance and polarized construction suitable for DC electrolytic applications.
• Package & Mounting: Snap‑in (lug) terminal, radial can package designed for secure mechanical mounting.
• Electrical Performance: Specified tangent of loss angle tan δ = 0.22 (measurement frequency: 120 Hz at 20°C) and ripple current 1 A at 120 Hz for low‑frequency power filtering.
• Reliability & Lifetime: Endurance specified as 1000 hours at 85°C with recovery criteria defined after endurance testing.
• Operating Temperature: Rated for −40°C to +85°C to cover typical audio equipment ambient conditions.
• Size & Handling: Physical dimensions φ22 × 25 mm (L: 2.5 cm × D: 2.2 cm) with tray packing for production handling.
• Environmental Compliance & Identification: RoHS‑compliant; marked with gold‑color lettering on a black sleeve per series marking convention.

Typical Applications

• High‑Fidelity Audio Amplifiers: Bulk and smoothing capacitance for power rails in preamplifiers and power amplifiers where audio performance is prioritized.
• Audio Power Supplies: Filtering and energy reservoir in low‑frequency power supplies serving audio electronics, leveraging the 1 A ripple rating at 120 Hz.
• Signal Coupling and Filtering Networks: Use in DC blocking, coupling, and low‑frequency filter circuits within audio equipment where polarized electrolytic capacitors are appropriate.

Unique Advantages

• Designed for Audio Use: Part of Nichicon's LKG series, which is specified for high‑grade audio equipment, supporting fidelity‑focused designs.
