• Unshielded drum core wirewound design for high-frequency signal integrity
• Compact 0603 surface-mount footprint for dense PCB layouts
• Ceramic core material supporting operation up to 125°C

Fixed Inductors Applications

• RF matching networks in wireless communication modules
• DC-DC converter input/output filtering
• High-speed digital circuit decoupling

Fixed Inductors Procurement Notes

Verify manufacturer designation as Cyntec or Delta Electronics/Components on official documentation. Confirm RoHS3 compliance status and MSL rating prior to integration. Ensure packaging quantity matches production requirements, typically supplied in reels of 4,000 units. Cross-reference datasheet revisions to validate electrical parameters against current design specifications.

Fixed Inductors Selection Notes

Select this component when a low-inductance value near 36 nH is required for RF applications. The unshielded construction minimizes size but may require layout consideration for EMI. Verify that the 600 mA current rating exceeds peak operational loads. The 250 mΩ DCR impacts efficiency; ensure thermal management aligns with power dissipation limits in the target environment.

Fixed Inductors Part Context

This part belongs to the 0603CS series of fixed power inductors manufactured by Delta Electronics/Components (Cyntec). The series utilizes drum core technology optimized for high-frequency performance. Similar variants in the series include different inductance values such as 3.6 nH or 220 nH, sharing the same 0603 package dimensions and general construction characteristics.

Fixed Inductors Replacement Considerations

Publicly confirmed substitute part numbers are not available in the provided source data. Evaluate alternative 36 nH inductors from other manufacturers only if they match the 0603 footprint, 600 mA rating, and 250 mΩ DCR constraints.
