LKG1V682MESBAK

The LKG1V682MESBAK is a snap‑in aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon’s LKG series designed for audio applications. It delivers 6.8 mF (6800 µF) capacitance at a 35 V rating in a compact snap‑in radial can, tailored for high‑fidelity audio equipment where bulk energy storage and low‑frequency ripple handling are required.

Key attributes include a 2.6 A low‑frequency ripple current rating (120 Hz), a measured tanδ of 0.3 at 20°C/120 Hz, and a rated endurance of 1000 hours at 85°C. The part is RoHS compliant and supplied in tray packing for straightforward assembly into audio power supplies and related circuitry.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 6.8 mF (6800 µF) nominal capacitance with a rated voltage of 35 V and capacitance tolerance of ±20% (–20%~20%).
• Low‑Frequency Ripple Handling — Rated low‑frequency ripple current of 2.6 A at 120 Hz, suitable for smoothing and energy buffering in audio power stages.
• Loss and Leakage — Tangent of loss angle (tanδ) specified at 0.3 (measurement condition: 20°C, 120 Hz) and a leakage current figure of 1460 µA as provided.
• Endurance & Thermal Range — Life rating of 1000 hours at 85°C; operating temperature range from –40°C to +85°C.
• Mounting & Package — Snap‑in radial can (lug/snap‑in terminal type) for secure chassis or board mounting; physical size listed as φ30 × 25L (L: 2.5 cm × D: 3.0 cm) and supplied in tray packing.
• Application Focus — Specifically designed for audio equipment, with series-level emphasis on high‑grade audio and high‑fidelity sound characteristics.
• Environmental Compliance — RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• Audio Power Supplies — Bulk storage and smoothing in amplifier supply rails where 6.8 mF at 35 V and 2.6 A ripple handling support stable power delivery.
• High‑Fidelity Amplifiers — Energy buffering and decoupling for audio amplifier stages that demand low loss (tanδ = 0.3 at 20°C/120 Hz) and consistent performance across temperature.
• Professional Audio Equipment — Suitable for mixer and preamp power sections requiring polarized electrolytic capacitance with secure snap‑in mounting for serviceable installations.

Unique Advantages

• Large Capacitance in a Compact Snap‑In Can — 6.8 mF in a φ30 × 25L form factor provides significant energy storage while maintaining a compact footprint for audio chassis and boards.
• Designed for Audio Fidelity — Series design emphasis on high‑grade audio use supports designers targeting improved sound characteristics in HD audio equipment.
• Robust Ripple Performance — 2.6 A ripple rating at 120 Hz helps reduce power‑supply ripple and supports reliable amplifier operation under dynamic audio loads.
• Measured Electrical Loss and Leakage — Specified tanδ and leakage current values enable predictable design margins for filter and decoupling networks.
• Endurance at Elevated Temperature — 1000‑hour life at 85°C supports deployments where sustained elevated temperatures are expected during operation or storage.
• RoHS Compliance — Conforms to RoHS, simplifying regulatory consideration in modern audio product designs.
