The LKSN2562MESC from Nichicon is a snap‑in terminal aluminum electrolytic capacitor in the LKS series, optimized for audio equipment and general-purpose electronic applications. It provides 5600 µF capacitance at a 56 V rating in a compact φ35 × 25 mm can with snap‑in mounting.

Key electrical and environmental attributes include a rated ripple current of 3.2 Arms (120 Hz), tan δ of 0.30, leakage current of 1680 µA, operating range −40 °C to +85 °C, and a specified endurance of 1000 hours at 85 °C. Note: this part is currently listed as end of life.

Key Features

• Capacitance and Voltage: 5600 µF nominal capacitance with a 56 V rated voltage, suitable for higher‑voltage rails where bulk energy storage is required.
• Snap‑In Mounting / Package: Radial can with snap‑in terminals for secure PCB mounting and reliable mechanical retention in through‑hole assemblies.
• Compact Size: φ35 × 25 mm package (L: 2.5 cm × D: 3.5 cm) offering a smaller footprint for designs that require reduced board space.
• Performance at Frequency: Rated ripple current 3.2 Arms at 120 Hz and loss tangent (tan δ) 0.30 measured at 120 Hz, 20 °C for predictable AC handling in power circuits.
• Endurance and Temperature Range: Specified endurance of 1000 hours at 85 °C and rated operating range from −40 °C to +85 °C for stable performance in a broad range of environments.
• Leakage and Tolerance: Leakage current specified at 1680 µA (per product data) and capacitance tolerance of ±20% at 120 Hz, 20 °C for clear design margins.
• Environmental Compliance and Packing: RoHS compliant and supplied in tray packaging for handling and assembly.

Typical Applications

• Audio Equipment: Intended for audio equipment as part of the LKS series, where bulk capacitance and stable ripple handling support power filtering and supply smoothing.
• General‑Purpose Electronics: General purpose use in consumer and industrial electronic systems requiring polarized bulk capacitance in a snap‑in can.
• Power Supply Filtering: Bulk energy storage and ripple smoothing on intermediate and higher‑voltage rails up to 56 V, leveraging the specified ripple current rating.
