LKS1V562MESZ

The LKS1V562MESZ is a snap-in aluminum electrolytic capacitor in Nichicon’s LKS series, designed for audio equipment and general-purpose electronic applications. It provides 5.6 mF capacitance at a 35 V rating in a compact radial, can-style snap-in package.

Engineered as a smaller-sized, audio-oriented option within the LKS family, this part is RoHS compliant and offers a combination of bulk capacitance, secure snap-in mounting and an operating range suited for a broad set of electronic designs.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 5.6 mF (5600 µF) rated at 35 V, providing substantial bulk capacitance for power rail support and energy buffering.
• Snap-in, Radial Can Package — Snap-in terminal type and radial can construction for secure board or chassis mounting in through-hole assemblies.
• Audio-Focused Design — LKS series positioning: smaller-sized with an intended effect of tone quality improvement when replacing small standard parts.
• Operating Temperature — Specified for operation from −40°C to +85°C, suitable for many commercial and industrial environments.
• Endurance — Rated lifetime of 1000 hours at 85°C with defined capacitance, tan δ and leakage current endurance limits.
• Tolerance & Polarization — ±20% capacitance tolerance at 120 Hz/20°C and polarized construction for correct orientation in DC circuits.
• Ripple Handling — Specified low-frequency ripple current of 2.25 A at 120 Hz (manufacturer test condition)
• RoHS Compliance — Compliant with RoHS directives (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).

Typical Applications

• Audio Equipment — Used in audio circuits where the LKS series’ smaller-sized, audio-oriented characteristics can contribute to perceived tone quality improvements when replacing standard small capacitors.
• General-Purpose Electronics — Provides bulk capacitance for general-purpose circuit designs requiring polarized electrolytic capacitors.
• Through-Hole / Snap-In Assemblies — Ideal for designs that benefit from secure snap-in mounting of radial can capacitors to PCBs or chassis.

Unique Advantages

• Substantial Bulk Capacitance at 35 V — 5.6 mF of capacitance supports energy storage and decoupling needs without increasing component count.
• Compact Physical Footprint — Size dimensions (L: 3.5 × D: 2.2 cm) deliver high capacitance in a smaller can for space-constrained assemblies.
• Secure Mounting — Snap-in terminals simplify mechanical retention and alignment for through-hole mounting.
• Designed for Audio Use — LKS series emphasis on tone-quality improvement makes this part suitable for audio-focused replacements and designs.
• Temperature and Endurance Rated — −40°C to +85°C operating range and 1000 h endurance at 85°C provide predictable performance over the specified lifetime.
• Regulatory Compliance — RoHS compliance supports designs targeting restricted-substance regulations.
