Overview of LKG1V472MESZAK – 4.7 mF, 35 V Snap‑in Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor
The LKG1V472MESZAK is a snap‑in terminal aluminum electrolytic capacitor engineered for audio equipment. It delivers 4.7 mF (4700 µF) capacitance at a 35 V rating in a compact radial can suitable for PCB snap‑in mounting.
Designed with audio applications in mind, this part combines high capacitance, a specified low dissipation factor, and a rated ripple current to support power‑filtering and decoupling duties in high‑fidelity audio systems while offering a specified endurance at elevated temperature.
Key Features
- Electrical: Capacitance & Tolerance — 4.7 mF (4700 µF) with ±20% tolerance (measured at 120 Hz, 20°C).
- Electrical: Rated Voltage — 35 V nominal working voltage.
- Low Loss (tan δ) — Specified tan δ of 0.3 (measurement frequency: 120 Hz, 20°C), supporting low dissipation in audio signal environments.
- Ripple Current — 2.2 A at 120 Hz for handling AC ripple in power filtering applications.
- Leakage Current — Specified leakage current value listed for the part (per datasheet measurement conditions).
- Temperature & Lifetime — Operating range −40°C to +85°C with endurance rating of 1000 hours at 85°C.
- Mechanical: Snap‑In Package — Radial can with snap‑in terminals for secure board mounting; compact dimensions φ22 × 30 mm (length).
- Polarized — Polarized aluminum electrolytic construction for DC power applications.
- RoHS Compliant — Meets RoHS directive requirements.
Typical Applications
- High‑grade audio amplifiers — Bulk smoothing and decoupling on amplifier power rails where stable capacitance and low loss contribute to consistent performance.
- Professional audio equipment — Power supply filtering in HD audio gear, leveraging the part’s low tan δ and specified ripple current handling.
- Audio power supplies and preamp circuits — Energy storage and transient support for audio circuitry requiring stable capacitance at 35 V.
Unique Advantages
- Audio‑oriented design: The LKG series is specified for high‑fidelity audio use, aligning electrical characteristics with the needs of audio equipment designers.
- High bulk capacitance in a compact can: 4700 µF in a φ22 × 30 mm package reduces board space for power reservoir applications.
- Good ripple handling: 2.2 A ripple current (120 Hz) supports robust smoothing in power supply stages.
- Controlled dissipation: A specified tan δ of 0.3 (120 Hz) helps minimize energy loss and contributes to consistent audio performance.
- Rated endurance at elevated temperature: 1000 hours at 85°C provides a defined reliability baseline for thermal stress conditions.
- Snap‑in mounting: Snap‑in terminals simplify secure installation on PCBs and can speed assembly for production systems.
