LKG1V332MESABK

The LKG1V332MESABK is an aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a snap-in radial can package, rated at 3.3 mF (3300 µF) and 35 V with ±20% tolerance. It belongs to Nichicon’s LKG series and is specified for audio use as a TYPE‑II (BK) grade component aimed at high‑fidelity audio equipment.

Engineered for mid‑voltage audio rails, this snap‑in capacitor combines high capacitance, a 2.2 A ripple current rating at 120 Hz, a tan δ of 0.3, and a defined endurance of 1000 hours at 85°C, offering a specification-driven option for designers of audio systems and related equipment.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage 3300 µF nominal capacitance at a 35 V rated voltage with ±20% tolerance for consistent bulk energy storage.
• Audio-grade TYPE‑II (BK) Part of the LKG series’ TYPE‑II (BK) grade intended for audio use; the series emphasizes tone quality and is targeted at high‑grade audio equipment.
• Package & Mounting Snap‑in terminal, radial can package (φ25 × 30 mm length) for secure board mounting in power sections and assemblies.
• Electrical Performance Specified ripple current of 2.2 A at 120 Hz and a tangent of loss angle (tan δ) of 0.3 to meet steady ripple handling and dissipation requirements; initial leakage current listed at approximately 1010 µA.
• Operating Range & Endurance Rated for operation from −40°C to +85°C with an endurance rating of 1000 hours at 85°C per the LKG series specification (capacitance change within ±20%, tan δ ≤ 200% of initial, leakage ≤ initial specified value after endurance test).
• Regulatory & Identification RoHS compliant; marking is printed in gold color on a black sleeve for clear identification on assemblies.

Typical Applications

• High‑fidelity audio equipment — Designed for use in HD audio and other high‑grade audio systems where tone quality and stable rail performance are required.
• Amplifiers and preamplifiers — Provides bulk capacitance for mid‑voltage rails in audio signal and power stages.
• Audio power supply modules — Suitable for smoothing and decoupling duties in low‑frequency power sections within audio electronics.

Unique Advantages

• Audio-focused grading — TYPE‑II (BK) designation within the LKG series targets center‑grade audio performance with electrode foil optimized for sound quality.
• High bulk capacitance at 35 V — 3300 µF provides substantive energy storage for stabilizing audio rails and reducing low‑frequency ripple.
• Measured ripple handling — 2.2 A ripple current rating at 120 Hz supports AC ripple demands typical of audio power supplies.
• Defined endurance characteristics — Specified 1000 hours at 85°C with documented limits on capacitance change, tan δ and leakage current for predictable lifetime behavior.
• Robust temperature range — −40°C to +85°C operating range accommodates a wide set of environmental conditions encountered in consumer and professional audio equipment.
• Compliance and clear marking — RoHS compliant and gold-on-black sleeve marking simplifies identification and compliance tracking in production.
