Key Features

• Audio‑Focused Design — Designed for high grade audio equipment with priorities on high fidelity sound quality as described in the LKG series documentation.
• Capacitance and Voltage — 2700 µF nominal capacitance at a rated voltage of 35 V, with a tolerance of ±20% (measured at 120 Hz, 20°C).
• Low Frequency Ripple Performance — Rated low frequency ripple current of 1.6 A at 120 Hz to support power smoothing in audio power supplies.
• Loss and Leakage Characteristics — Specified tangent of loss angle (tan δ) of 0.3 (20°C, 120 Hz) and leakage current specified at 920 µA.
• Endurance and Temperature Range — Rated for 1000 hours at 85°C; operating temperature range from –40°C to +85°C.
• Package and Mounting — Snap‑in, radial can package (φ20 × 25 mm) for secure board mounting and tray packing for clean handling.
• Regulatory — RoHS compliant.
• Polarized Electrolytic — Polarized device suitable for DC power and decoupling applications in audio circuits.

Typical Applications

• Power Supply Reservoirs — Bulk smoothing and energy storage on amplifier power rails where 2700 µF at 35 V supports stable supply under dynamic audio loads.
• Audio Amplifiers — Filtering and decoupling in high‑fidelity amplifier stages, leveraging the series’ audio‑oriented design and specified low frequency ripple capability.
• Preamp and Signal Chain Support — Power decoupling in preamplifiers and signal conditioning modules where controlled leakage and loss characteristics are important.

Unique Advantages

• Audio‑Centric Engineering — Part of Nichicon’s LKG series, which is described as designed for high grade audio equipment prioritizing fidelity.
• Compact, High Capacitance — 2700 µF in a φ20 × 25 mm can enables substantial capacitance in a small board footprint.
