LKG1V222MESYBK

The LKG1V222MESYBK is a Nichicon LKG-series aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a snap-in (radial can) package, specified for audio applications. It delivers 2200 µF capacitance at 35 V with a Type‑II audio-grade construction that emphasizes high-fidelity sound characteristics for high‑grade and HD audio equipment.

Engineered for audio circuitry, the part combines a compact snap‑in form factor with documented endurance and electrical characteristics suitable for power smoothing and decoupling in consumer and professional audio systems.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 2200 µF (2.2 mF) rated at 35 V with ±20% tolerance, providing bulk energy storage for audio power rails.
• Audio‑Focused Grade — TYPE‑II center grade construction specified for delivering tone quality priorities in high‑grade audio equipment.
• Electrical Loss & Leakage — Specified tan δ = 0.3 and leakage current 830 µA (manufacturer data), enabling predictable low‑loss behavior in audio signal power paths.
• Ripple Current Capability — 1.75 A ripple current at 120 Hz, supporting dynamic load currents common in audio amplifier supplies.
• Reliability & Lifetime — Endurance rating of 1000 hours at 85 °C with performance criteria for capacitance change, tan δ, and leakage current as defined by the series.
• Operating Range — Specified for −40 °C to +85 °C operation to cover typical environmental ranges for audio equipment.
• Package & Mounting — Radial, can-type snap‑in terminal for robust PCB mounting and straightforward assembly into power supply sections.
• RoHS Compliance — Compliant with applicable RoHS directives as noted by the manufacturer.

Typical Applications

• High‑Grade Audio Equipment — Bulk filtering and decoupling in high‑fidelity amplifiers and preamplifiers where tone quality is a design priority.
• HD Audio Systems — Power smoothing in digital‑to‑analog converter (DAC) supplies and mixed analog/digital audio subsystems targeting HD audio performance.
• Audio Power Supplies — Energy storage and ripple suppression for regulated and unregulated audio power rails requiring stable low‑loss capacitance.

Unique Advantages

• Audio‑oriented construction: TYPE‑II grade is specified by the manufacturer for center‑grade tonal characteristics, aligning component selection with high‑fidelity design goals.
• Documented endurance: 1000 hours at 85 °C provides a defined reliability baseline for designs exposed to elevated operating temperatures.
• Predictable electrical behavior: Specified tan δ and leakage current values allow engineers to model loss and bias leakage in sensitive audio power networks.
• High ripple handling: 1.75 A at 120 Hz helps manage dynamic current demands in amplifier supply stages, reducing voltage modulation under load.
• Robust mounting: Snap‑in radial can package offers secure mechanical retention and simplifies insertion into audio power assemblies.
• Regulatory readiness: RoHS compliance supports use in products targeting regulated markets.
