0603CS-230EGTS

Fixed Inductors Overview

The 0603CS-230EGTS is a fixed inductor from Delta Electronics/Components, designed for surface-mount applications. It features an unshielded drum core wirewound construction with a ceramic magnetic core. The component provides an inductance of 23 nH with a tolerance of ±10%. It has a DC resistance (DCR) of 190 mOhm and supports a rated current of 700 mA. The self-resonant frequency is 2.85 GHz, measured at a test frequency of 250 MHz. Operating within a temperature range of -40°C to 125°C, it utilizes the standard 0603 (1608 Metric) package.

Fixed Inductors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix to ensure the correct packaging configuration, such as tape and reel or cut tape, matches production requirements. Confirm RoHS compliance status and moisture sensitivity level classifications prior to procurement to align with assembly line handling protocols and environmental regulations.

Fixed Inductors Selection Notes

Select this component when a low inductance value near 23 nH is required for high-frequency signal paths. Ensure the 700 mA current rating meets the operational load without saturation. The unshielded nature requires layout consideration to minimize electromagnetic interference coupling with adjacent sensitive traces on the printed circuit board.

Fixed Inductors Part Context

This part belongs to the 0603CS series of ceramic RF inductors manufactured by Delta Electronics/Components. The series offers a wide range of inductance values optimized for radio frequency applications. These components are characterized by their small physical size and stable performance across industrial temperature ranges, making them suitable for modern miniaturized electronics.

Fixed Inductors Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other 0603CS series variants with similar electrical characteristics, such as the 0603CS-220EGTS or 0603CS-120EGTS, provided the inductance difference is acceptable for the specific circuit design.
