Overview of LKG2A152MESABK – Large Snap‑In Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor, 100 V, 1500 µF
The LKG2A152MESABK is a snap‑in, large‑can aluminum electrolytic capacitor engineered for audio equipment. It delivers 1.5 mF capacitance at a 100 V rating in a radial, snap‑in package tailored for high‑grade audio applications.
Designed with audio performance and practical assembly in mind, this part combines a compact φ25 × 50 mm can, RoHS compliance, and electrical characteristics suitable for designs that specify 1500 µF at 100 V with low‑frequency ripple current capability.
Key Features
- Capacitance & Tolerance — 1.5 mF (1500 µF) nominal with a tolerance of -20% to +20% measured at 120 Hz, 20°C.
- Rated Voltage — 100 V DC rating to support higher‑voltage audio supply rails.
- Mounting & Package — Snap‑in radial can (packaged in tray packing) for secure mechanical mounting and straightforward board assembly.
- Ripple Current — Low‑frequency ripple current rating of 3.2 A at 120 Hz, enabling handling of audio power supply ripple at that frequency.
- Leakage & Dissipation — Specified leakage current of 1160 µA and dissipation factor (tan δ) of 0.25 (measured at 20°C, 120 Hz).
- Temperature & Endurance — Operating range of -40°C to +85°C with a rated lifetime of 1000 hours at 85°C under rated voltage.
- Physical Size — Diameter φ25 mm × length 50 mm (approx. 2.5 cm × 5.0 cm), compact large‑can footprint for audio board layouts.
- Environmental Compliance — RoHS‑compliant construction.
Typical Applications
- High‑Fidelity Audio Equipment — Suitable for use in high‑grade audio designs that require a 1500 µF, 100 V snap‑in electrolytic capacitor specified for audio performance.
- Professional Audio Power Modules — Applied where a 100 V rated bulk capacitor with 3.2 A low‑frequency ripple capability is required by the power section of audio systems.
- Consumer Hi‑Fi Systems — Used in audio assemblies that benefit from a compact large‑can radial capacitor and tray packing for production handling.
Unique Advantages
- Audio‑Oriented Design: Explicitly developed for audio equipment and high‑grade audio use, aligning component selection with fidelity‑focused designs.
- High Voltage Capability: 100 V rating provides headroom for higher supply rails common in professional audio power stages.
- Significant Stored Energy: 1.5 mF nominal capacitance supplies substantial energy storage for audio power systems requiring bulk capacitance.
- Robust Ripple Handling: 3.2 A low‑frequency ripple current rating at 120 Hz supports common AC ripple conditions in audio power supplies.
- Designed for Assembly: Snap‑in radial can and tray packing support reliable mechanical retention and production handling.
- Thermal Endurance: Rated for operation from -40°C to +85°C with 1000‑hour endurance at 85°C, providing predictable aging characteristics under rated conditions.
