Overview of LKG2A122MESCBK – 100 V, 1.2 mF Snap‑In Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor for Audio

The LKG2A122MESCBK is a snap‑in aluminum electrolytic capacitor engineered for audio equipment. It provides 1.2 mF (1200 µF) capacitance at a 100 V rated voltage in a radial, snap‑in can sized φ35 × 25 mm.

Designed with audio applications in mind, this capacitor combines high capacitance, substantial low‑frequency ripple handling, and a temperature endurance profile suited to audio power supply and smoothing duties in high‑grade audio systems.

Key Features

  • Capacitance & Voltage — 1.2 mF (1200 µF) nominal capacitance rated at 100 V with a tolerance of −20% to +20%.
  • Audio‑focused design — Part of the LKG series specified for high‑grade audio equipment and HD Audio needs.
  • Mounting & package — Snap‑in, radial can (φ35 × 25 mm) for secure board mounting and simplified assembly; supplied in tray packing.
  • Ripple current & leakage — Low‑frequency ripple current rating of 2.9 A at 120 Hz and a specified leakage current of 1030 µA.
  • Electrical loss — Tangent of loss angle (tanδ) of 0.25 measured at 20°C, 120 Hz for predictable AC behaviour in audio circuits.
  • Endurance & temperature — Rated for 1000 hours at 85°C; operating temperature range −40°C to +85°C.
  • Polarized — Designed as a polarized electrolytic capacitor for DC applications common in power and audio circuits.
  • RoHS compliant — Meets RoHS directive requirements.

Typical Applications

  • High‑fidelity audio systems — Specified for high‑grade audio equipment and HD Audio applications where capacitor performance affects tonal quality.
  • Power supply smoothing — 1.2 mF capacitance and 2.9 A ripple rating at 120 Hz are suited to low‑frequency smoothing and bulk decoupling in audio power supplies.
  • Audio amplifier modules — Polarized snap‑in mounting supports robust power filtering in discrete and modular amplifier designs.

Unique Advantages

  • Audio‑optimized series: Part of the LKG family developed for sound quality in high‑grade audio equipment, supporting HD Audio requirements.
  • High voltage capability: 100 V rating enables use in higher‑headroom audio power rails and supply topologies.
  • Strong ripple handling: 2.9 A low‑frequency ripple current (120 Hz) reduces heating and improves reliability in power smoothing roles.
  • Predictable AC performance: tanδ of 0.25 at 20°C, 120 Hz gives a defined loss characteristic for design calculations.
  • Robust thermal endurance: Rated for 1000 hours at 85°C with an operating range of −40°C to +85°C for stable performance across typical audio equipment environments.
  • Assembly friendly package: Snap‑in radial can in tray packing simplifies board mounting and handling during production.

Why Choose LKG2A122MESCBK?

LKG2A122MESCBK positions itself as a practical choice for designers of high‑grade audio equipment who need substantial capacitance, reliable ripple handling, and a package intended for secure snap‑in mounting. Its 100 V rating and 1.2 mF value support a range of audio power supply and filtering roles where large bulk capacitance and predictable loss characteristics matter.

This capacitor is well suited to engineers and procurement teams specifying components for audio power modules, amplifier assemblies, and other systems where RoHS compliance, known endurance at elevated temperature, and tray‑packed snap‑in mounting are desirable.
