LKG2A102MESBCK

The LKG2A102MESBCK is a snap‑in, large‑can aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon’s LKG series designed for audio equipment. It provides 1000 µF capacitance at 100 V in a compact φ30 × 35 mm can with a snap‑in radial package suited for high‑fidelity audio circuits.

Engineered for audio use, this polarized capacitor offers a combination of ripple handling, low loss (tanδ), and endurance suitable for power filtering and decoupling in audio amplifiers and related equipment across a −40°C to +85°C operating range.

Key Features

• Package & Mounting — Radial, large‑can snap‑in construction (φ30 × 35 mm) for secure chassis or board mounting; supplied in tray packing for controlled handling.
• Capacitance & Voltage — 1000 µF (1 mF) nominal capacitance with ±20% tolerance, rated for 100 V DC; polarized design for power and coupling applications.
• Audio‑Oriented Design — Part of the LKG series specifically developed for audio equipment, prioritizing sound quality in high‑grade audio systems.
• Loss Characteristics — Tangent of loss angle (tanδ) of 0.2 measured at 20°C, 120 Hz to indicate low dissipation for stable audio performance.
• Ripple Current Capability — Low frequency ripple current of 3.3 A at 120 Hz, enabling effective smoothing in audio power supplies and amplifier rails.
• Leakage & Endurance — Specified leakage current of 940 µA and endurance rating of 1000 hours at 85°C under rated voltage conditions.
• Operating Temperature — Usable across −40°C to +85°C for a wide range of environmental conditions.
• Regulatory — RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• High‑Fidelity Power Supply Filtering — Bulk smoothing and energy storage in audio amplifier power supplies where 1000 µF at 100 V is required.
• Amplifier Decoupling — Local decoupling on high‑voltage amplifier rails to stabilize supply under dynamic audio loads.
• Audio System Modules — Use in preamplifiers, power amplifiers, and other high‑grade audio subassemblies that demand low loss and reliable ripple handling.

Unique Advantages

• Audio‑focused Engineering — Part of the LKG family developed for audio equipment, offering characteristics selected to support high‑fidelity performance.
• High Ripple Handling — 3.3 A ripple current rating at 120 Hz reduces heating and supports robust power filtering in demanding audio applications.
• Stable Loss Performance — tanδ specified at 0.2 (20°C, 120 Hz) for predictable dissipation behavior in low‑frequency audio circuits.
• Durability for Continuous Use — 1000‑hour endurance at 85°C provides reassurance for designs operating at elevated temperatures and voltages.
• Compact Snap‑In Form Factor — φ30 × 35 mm can with snap‑in terminals delivers a space‑efficient, mechanically secure solution for chassis or board integration.
• RoHS Compliance — Compliant to RoHS, supporting regulatory requirements for electronics manufacturing.
