LKG1V122MESZBK

The LKG1V122MESZBK is an aluminum electrolytic, snap-in (radial can) capacitor from Nichicon’s LKG series, engineered for audio equipment. It provides 1.2 mF (1200 µF) capacitance at a 35 V rating and is offered in a compact φ22 × 20 mm package with snap-in terminals for board or chassis mounting.

Built within the LKG series that is described for high-grade audio use, this part combines audio-oriented design intent with measurable electrical characteristics such as low-frequency ripple handling and defined endurance at elevated temperature.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Tolerance — 1.2 mF (1200 µF) with tolerance of -20% to +20% (±20% at 120 Hz, 20°C).
• Rated Voltage — 35 V working voltage suitable for mid-voltage audio supply rails.
• Audio-focused Series — Part of Nichicon’s LKG family, designed for high-grade audio equipment and HD audio applications.
• Loss Characteristics (tanδ) — Tangent of loss angle (tanδ) specified as 0.3 measured at 20°C, 120 Hz.
• Ripple Current Capability — Low-frequency ripple current rating of 1.3 A at 120 Hz for power-supply smoothing and bulk filtering tasks.
• Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 610 µA after rated-voltage application conditions.
• Endurance & Reliability — Rated lifetime of 1000 hours at 85°C; endurance specifications define allowable changes in capacitance, tanδ, and leakage after the test.
• Operating Temperature Range — Specified for -40°C to +85°C operation.
• Package & Mounting — Radial, snap-in can; compact dimensions: diameter φ22 mm × length 20 mm; supplied in tray packing.
• RoHS Compliance — Declared RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• High-fidelity audio amplifiers — Bulk filtering and supply smoothing in high-grade audio amplifier power supplies using the 1.2 mF capacitance and 35 V rating.
• Audio system power rails — Decoupling and energy storage for mid-voltage rails in audio equipment where a snap-in radial can is suitable for chassis or board mounting.
• Consumer and pro audio electronics — Use in high-grade audio equipment designs that leverage LKG-series characteristics for sound-quality-focused components.

Unique Advantages

• Audio-oriented engineering: Part of the LKG series developed for high-grade audio equipment, providing specification alignment with audio system needs.
• Compact snap-in form factor: φ22 mm × 20 mm radial snap-in can simplifies mechanical mounting and chassis integration in constrained designs.
• Defined ripple handling: 1.3 A ripple current rating at 120 Hz supports power-supply smoothing in audio power stages.
• Measured dielectric behavior: tanδ of 0.3 at 20°C/120 Hz gives a quantified loss parameter for design tradeoffs.
• Endurance at elevated temperature: 1000 hours at 85°C endurance rating provides a measurable reliability baseline for thermal-stressed applications.
• Regulatory compliance: RoHS-compliant construction supports environmental requirements.
