LKG1V821MESACK

The LKG1V821MESACK is an aluminum electrolytic capacitor in Nichicon’s LKG series, configured with a snap‑in terminal and radial can package. It provides 820 µF capacitance at a 35 V rating in a compact φ25 × 20 mm footprint, and is designed for audio applications that prioritize high‑fidelity sound quality.

Built for use in high‑grade and HD audio equipment, the LKG series offers multiple tone‑quality grades (TYPE‑I, TYPE‑II, TYPE‑III) to address different audio design priorities while maintaining RoHS compliance.

Key Features

• Capacitance and voltage: 820 µF rated capacitance at 35 V, providing bulk capacitance for audio circuits where large charge storage is required.
• Audio‑focused series: Part of the LKG family designed specifically for audio use and high‑fidelity sound; the series includes TYPE‑I/II/III grades to match different tone‑quality requirements.
• Snap‑in radial can package: Snap‑in terminal, radial can construction with dimensions φ25 × 20 mm (L: 2.0 cm × D: 2.5 cm) and a seated height max of 2 cm for compact board layouts.
• Operating range and endurance: Rated for −40 °C to +85 °C operating temperature with a 1000‑hour endurance specification at 85 °C under rated voltage; endurance limits include capacitance change within ±20% and controlled tan δ and leakage behavior.
• Ripple handling: Ripple current rating of 850 mA at 120 Hz, supporting moderate ripple stress common in audio power circuitry.
• Tolerance and polarity: Capacitance tolerance ±20% (at 120 Hz, 20 °C); polarized component requiring correct orientation in circuits.
• Compliance and marking: RoHS compliant (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863) and marked with gold‑color letters on a black sleeve for clear identification.

Typical Applications

• High‑grade home audio systems — Bulk capacitance for power sections and signal chains in systems prioritizing fidelity and tone quality.
• HD audio equipment — Suitable where component selection is driven by precise tone reproduction and sound staging requirements.
• Professional audio gear — Intended for studio and professional AV equipment that require audio‑focused capacitor choices.

Unique Advantages

• Engineered for audio fidelity: The LKG series emphasis on tone quality makes this part appropriate for designs where sound character matters.
• Compact, serviceable package: Snap‑in radial can (φ25 × 20 mm) enables secure PCB mounting with a small footprint for space‑constrained audio assemblies.
• Specifiable endurance: 1000 hours at 85 °C endurance with defined limits on capacitance, tan δ and leakage provides predictable long‑term behavior under rated conditions.
• Measurable ripple capability: 850 mA at 120 Hz ripple rating helps designers quantify thermal and electrical stress in audio power supplies.
• RoHS compliant and traceable marking: Complies with current RoHS directives and is printed with gold lettering on a black sleeve for clear part identification.
