Fixed Inductors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against official datasheets to ensure correct tolerance and packaging configuration. Confirm RoHS compliance status and moisture sensitivity level requirements prior to integration. Cross-reference manufacturer part numbers with distributor codes to avoid substitution errors during procurement.

Fixed Inductors Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring ultra-low inductance values in compact 0402 footprints. Evaluate the 1.36 A current rating against peak load conditions to prevent saturation. Consider the unshielded nature of the design when placing components near sensitive RF traces to manage potential coupling effects.

Fixed Inductors Part Context

This part belongs to the 0402HS series of fixed inductors, which are engineered for space-constrained mobile and IoT devices. The series utilizes ceramic materials for the drum core to maintain stability at high frequencies. It serves as a passive magnetic component for cloud computing equipment and automotive segments.

Fixed Inductors Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other 1 nH 0402 unshielded inductors from Delta such as the 0402HS-1N2EKTS, though tolerance and current ratings differ. Verify pin compatibility and thermal characteristics before swapping with non-Delta manufacturers.
