Fixed Inductors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix EKTS against official Delta Electronics documentation to confirm packaging and tape specifications. Ensure compatibility with RoHS3 standards if required by your assembly process. Cross-reference the manufacturer part number with authorized distributor databases to validate authenticity and current production status before finalizing procurement orders.

Fixed Inductors Selection Notes

Select this component when a low-inductance value near 68 nH is required in an ultra-compact 0402 footprint. Consider the 140 mA current rating and 1.96 Ohm DCR to ensure it meets the power handling requirements of your specific circuit design. Verify that the operating temperature range aligns with your environmental constraints.
