Fixed Inductors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix EHTS against official datasheets to confirm the ±3% tolerance and 850 mA rating, as similar part numbers may have different electrical characteristics. Ensure compatibility with RoHS3 compliance requirements for your manufacturing process. Confirm moisture sensitivity level and storage conditions prior to assembly.

Fixed Inductors Selection Notes

Select this component when a low-inductance value is required for high-frequency applications. The 0402 package size is ideal for space-constrained designs. Consider the 850 mA current rating to ensure adequate headroom for the target application's peak currents. Verify that the unshielded design does not interfere with nearby sensitive components.

Fixed Inductors Part Context

This inductor belongs to the 0402HP series from Delta Electronics/Components. The series offers various inductance values and current ratings in a standard 0402 footprint. These components are designed for general-purpose electronic circuits requiring reliable performance in compact form factors.

Fixed Inductors Replacement Considerations

The 0402HP-160EKTS is listed as an alternative available from the manufacturer. Verify if the ±10% tolerance and identical electrical parameters meet the design requirements before substitution.
