LKG1V222MESZCK

The LKG1V222MESZCK is a snap‑in aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon's LKG series, configured for audio applications. It delivers 2.2 mF (2200 µF) capacitance at a 35 V rating in a radial, snap‑in can package intended for use where high‑fidelity audio performance and reliable power filtering are required.

Engineered for audio equipment, the part combines a compact φ22 × 45 mm can with measured electrical characteristics—tan δ and ripple current—specified at 120 Hz and 20 °C, offering designers predictable behavior in power supply and signal‑conditioning circuits.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 2.2 mF (2200 µF) nominal capacitance with a rated voltage of 35 V and a standard tolerance of ±20%.
• Audio‑Focused Design — Part of the LKG series specified "For Audio Use" with series-level emphasis on tone quality for HD audio equipment.
• Loss Angle (tan δ) — Tangent of loss angle specified as 0.22 (measured at 20 °C, 120 Hz), enabling designers to assess dissipation for audio power stages.
• High Low‑Frequency Ripple Capability — Low‑frequency ripple current rating of 1.95 A at 120 Hz for handling audio power supply ripple and transient currents.
• Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 830 µA, useful for estimating quiescent currents in powered audio systems.
• Package & Mounting — Radial, snap‑in can (φ22 × 45 mm / 4.5 × 2.2 cm) for secure PCB mounting in power assemblies and chassis‑mounted modules.
• Operating Range & Endurance — Rated for −40 °C to +85 °C with a specified life of 1000 hours at 85 °C, and RoHS compliance for environmental conformity.

Typical Applications

• High‑Fidelity Audio Amplifiers — Bulk filtering and power‑rail decoupling where stable capacitance and controlled dissipation at 120 Hz are important for tonal consistency.
• Power Supply Filtering — Smoothing and ripple reduction on 35 V rails in audio preamplifiers and consumer audio electronics.
• Speaker Crossover and Signal Conditioning — Use in circuits where electrolytic capacitance supports low‑frequency energy storage and transient response in audio paths.

Unique Advantages

• Audio‑oriented specification — Part of a series explicitly developed for audio use, helping designers meet high‑fidelity sound quality objectives.
• Measurable electrical characterization — Provided tan δ and ripple current ratings at 120 Hz and 20 °C make it straightforward to model performance in audio power systems.
• Robust operating range — −40 °C to +85 °C rating and 1000‑hour endurance at 85 °C provide predictable long‑term behavior in installed equipment.
• Snap‑in radial package — Secure mechanical mounting suited to power modules and chassis assemblies common in audio equipment builds.
• RoHS compliant — Meets RoHS directive requirements for material compliance in modern electronic products.
