Fixed Inductors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix EDTS confirms the ±0.5 nH tolerance and 1 A rating during procurement. Confirm RoHS3 compliance status as required by project specifications. Ensure the selected packaging option aligns with automated placement equipment capabilities. Validate that the 0402 package dimensions fit the designated PCB land pattern without clearance issues.

Fixed Inductors Selection Notes

Select this component when sub-nanohenry inductance values are required for VHF/UHF band operations. The low DCR minimizes insertion loss in critical RF paths. Consider the unshielded nature for applications where magnetic field interference is manageable. Verify that the 1 A current rating exceeds the peak operational current of the target circuit to prevent saturation.

Fixed Inductors Part Context

This part belongs to the 0402HC series of high-current, ultra-low inductance components from Delta Electronics/Components. The series targets miniaturized RF designs where space constraints limit the use of larger inductors. It complements other series like 0402HM, which offers higher inductance values but lower current handling capabilities.

Fixed Inductors Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include the 0402HM-220EKTS for similar form factors, though electrical ratings differ significantly. Cross-reference with other manufacturers' 0402 unshielded wirewound inductors offering 2.2 nH ±0.5 nH. Verify pin compatibility and thermal characteristics before substitution.
