Overview of LKSN2562MESB – Snap-in Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor for Audio Equipment
The LKSN2562MESB is a snap-in terminal aluminum electrolytic capacitor designed for audio equipment and general-purpose electronic applications. It delivers 5.6 mF capacitance at a 56 V rating in a compact, radial can snap-in package intended to improve tone quality when replacing small standard capacitors.
Built for polarized power and filtering roles, this component is RoHS compliant and offers an operating temperature range from −40°C to +85°C with a rated lifetime of 1000 hours at 85°C.
Key Features
- Capacitance & Voltage — 5.6 mF rated capacitance at 56 V, suitable for polarized energy storage and smoothing in audio and general-purpose circuits.
- Snap-in Mounting — Radial, can-style snap-in terminals for secure board retention and straightforward insertion in through-hole assemblies.
- Temperature & Lifetime — Operates from −40°C to +85°C with a specified endurance of 1000 hours at 85°C, meeting endurance and shelf-life characteristics from the LKS series data.
- Ripple Handling — Rated ripple current of 3.2 A at 120 Hz, providing defined AC current capability for power filtering at mains-related frequencies.
- Tolerance & Polarization — Polarized capacitor with ±20% capacitance tolerance, suitable where defined polarized electrolytic behavior is required.
- Compact Size — Package dimensions: L: 3.5 × D: 3 cm, with a snap-in radial can profile designed for space-conscious audio designs.
- Regulatory — Compliant to the RoHS directive (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863), supporting restricted-substance requirements.
Typical Applications
- Audio Equipment — Intended for audio circuits where replacing a small standard capacitor can yield improved tone characteristics; snap-in mounting supports robust PCB installation.
- General-Purpose Electronics — Use where a polarized 5.6 mF, 56 V electrolytic capacitor is required for bulk storage or DC link duties in consumer and industrial equipment.
- Power Filtering — Suited for smoothing and filtering at mains-related frequencies, backed by a rated ripple current specified at 120 Hz.
Unique Advantages
- Tone-focused Design — Marketed for audio applications and noted for higher-tone quality compared to the referenced LKG TYPE-1 grade, providing a direct upgrade path in audio signal chains.
- Defined Endurance — Specified 1000-hour lifetime at 85°C with post-endurance limits for capacitance, tan δ and leakage, enabling predictable long-term behavior in deployed designs.
- Snap-in Robustness — Snap-in terminals simplify board assembly and ensure mechanical stability in through-hole layouts.
- Clear Electrical Specs — Explicit ratings for capacitance, voltage, ripple current, tolerance and operating temperature make selection and design validation straightforward.
- RoHS Compliance — Meets RoHS directive requirements, helping address regulatory needs for restricted substances.
