LKG2A102MESYAK

The LKG2A102MESYAK is an aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a snap‑in radial can designed by Nichicon for audio equipment and high‑tone quality applications. It delivers 1000 µF capacitance at a 100 V rating in a compact φ20 × 40 mm form factor with snap‑in terminals for secure chassis or PCB mounting.

Targeted at high‑grade audio designs, this snap‑in capacitor combines a high capacitance/voltage combination with a defined ripple‑handling capability and operating range to support demanding audio system requirements while remaining RoHS‑compliant.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 1000 µF rated capacitance with a 100 V voltage rating and ±20% tolerance, suitable where substantial energy storage at high DC voltages is required.
• Audio‑Grade Design — Developed for high‑grade audio equipment and HD audio use, with emphasis on tone quality as specified in the LKG series documentation.
• Snap‑In, Radial Can Package — Snap‑in terminal configuration in a radial/can package (φ20 × 40 mm) for firm mechanical retention and straightforward assembly into racks or chassis.
• Operating Temperature & Lifetime — Rated for −40°C to +85°C with an endurance specification of 1000 hours at 85°C, delivering predictable performance over the specified life test.
• Ripple Current Capability — Low‑frequency ripple current rating of 2.05 A at 120 Hz to support dynamic load conditions in audio systems.
• Leakage Current — Low leakage characteristic reported at 940 µA for this part; datasheet provides the standard leakage‑current criterion (≤ 3√CV µA after 5 minutes at 20°C).
• Regulatory — RoHS‑compliant construction.

Typical Applications

• Professional Audio Equipment — Suited to high‑grade audio designs that prioritize tone quality and stable long‑term performance.
• High‑Voltage Audio Power Supplies — Appropriate where 100 V DC bus smoothing and bulk energy buffering are required within audio amplifier systems.
