LKG1V332MESYBK

The LKG1V332MESYBK is an aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon's LKG series, configured with a snap-in terminal and a radial can package. It delivers 3,300 µF at a 35 V rating with ±20% tolerance and is part of the series designed specifically for high-grade audio equipment.

Engineered as the TYPE‑II (code BK) "Gold Tune" center grade in the LKG family, this device targets audio applications that require substantial smoothing capacity, controlled dissipation, and reliable low-frequency performance within an operating range of -40 °C to +85 °C.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 3,300 µF rated capacitance at 35 V with ±20% tolerance, providing bulk energy storage for audio power rails and smoothing circuits.
• Audio‑Focused Grade — TYPE‑II (code BK) "Gold Tune" center grade from the LKG series, specified for use in high‑grade audio equipment.
• Ripple Current Handling — Rated ripple current of 2.25 A at 120 Hz, supporting power‑supply smoothing under moderate AC ripple conditions.
• Leakage & Dissipation — Specified leakage current of approximately 1,010 µA and tangent of loss angle (tan δ) of 0.3, enabling predictable DC leakage and loss behavior.
• Temperature & Endurance — Operating temperature range of -40 °C to +85 °C with an endurance rating of 1,000 hours at 85 °C to meet life and stability requirements in thermal stress conditions.
• Package & Mounting — Snap‑in radial can (φ20 × 40 mm) for secure board mounting and tray packing suitable for production handling.
• Regulatory Compliance — RoHS compliant as stated in the product data.

Typical Applications

• High‑Fidelity Audio Amplifiers — Bulk smoothing and reservoir capacitance for power rails in hi‑fi and professional amplifiers where controlled low‑frequency behavior matters.
• Audio Power Supplies — Filtering and ripple suppression in linear and switching power supplies for audio equipment.
• Consumer and Professional Audio Gear — Power decoupling and energy storage in mixers, preamps, and other audio electronics requiring stable supply rails.

Unique Advantages

• Audio‑Oriented Performance: As the LKG series TYPE‑II "Gold Tune" grade, the capacitor is specified for audio use, aligning component selection with sound‑quality priorities.
• High Energy Density in a Compact Can: 3,300 µF in a φ20 × 40 mm package (approx. 4.0 × 2.0 cm overall) saves PCB space while providing substantial capacitance.
• Reliable Ripple Endurance: 2.25 A ripple current rating at 120 Hz reduces stress on the capacitor under AC ripple conditions common in audio power supplies.
• Predictable Loss and Leakage: Specified tan δ of 0.3 and leakage current around 1,010 µA support predictable thermal and DC behavior in design calculations.
• Operational Robustness: Wide operating temperature range (‑40 °C to +85 °C) with 1,000 hours endurance at 85 °C for stability over the component lifetime.
• RoHS Compliant: Conforms to RoHS requirements, simplifying regulatory compliance for finished products.
