0603CS-2N3EKTS

Fixed Inductors Overview

The Delta Electronics/Components 0603CS-2N3EKTS is a fixed surface-mount inductor featuring a 2.3 nH nominal inductance with ±10% tolerance. It utilizes an unshielded drum core wirewound construction on a ceramic material, housed in a compact 0603 (1608 metric) package measuring 1.80mm x 1.16mm x 1.02mm. The component supports a rated current of 700 mA and exhibits a DC resistance of 140 mΩ. It achieves a Q value of 16 at 250 MHz and has a self-resonant frequency of 4 GHz. Operating within a temperature range of -40°C to 125°C, it complies with RoHS3 standards.

Fixed Inductors Feature Summary

• Unshielded drum core wirewound design for minimal magnetic interference
• High self-resonant frequency capability up to 4 GHz
• Compact 0603 surface-mount footprint for space-constrained layouts

Fixed Inductors Applications

• RF matching networks requiring ultra-low inductance
• High-frequency signal filtering circuits
• Impedance matching stages in RF front-end modules

Fixed Inductors Procurement Notes

Verify the manufacturer part number against official Delta Electronics/Components documentation to ensure authenticity. Confirm that the specific ordering suffix matches the required electrical parameters, as variations may exist within the series. Check for RoHS3 compliance status relevant to your region's regulatory requirements before finalizing procurement.

Fixed Inductors Selection Notes

Select this component when circuit design demands extremely low inductance values below 5 nH for high-frequency applications. Ensure the PCB layout accommodates the 0603 package dimensions and that the 700 mA current rating aligns with the maximum expected operational current. Consider the unshielded nature of the device regarding potential electromagnetic interference with nearby sensitive traces.

Fixed Inductors Part Context

This component belongs to the 0603CS series of fixed inductors from Delta Electronics/Components. The series offers various inductance values within the 0603 package size, catering to different RF and power supply filtering needs. The 0603CS-2N3EKTS specifically targets applications requiring the lowest end of the inductance spectrum in this form factor.

Fixed Inductors Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other 0603 series inductors from Delta or alternative manufacturers if availability is constrained. Verify that substitute parts match the 2.3 nH value, 700 mA current rating, and 140 mΩ DCR to maintain circuit performance integrity.
