0603CS-3N3EGTS

Fixed Inductors Overview

The 0603CS-3N3EGTS is a fixed wirewound inductor from Delta Electronics/Components, featuring a ceramic drum core and unshielded design. It offers an inductance of 3.3 nH with a ±2% tolerance. The component supports a rated current of 700 mA and exhibits a DC resistance of 80 mΩ. It achieves a self-resonant frequency of 6 GHz and maintains a Q factor of 22 at 250 MHz. Housed in a compact 0603 (1.60mm x 1.16mm) surface-mount package with a maximum height of 1.02 mm, it operates reliably within a temperature range of -40°C to 125°C.

Fixed Inductors Feature Summary

• High-frequency performance with a 6 GHz self-resonant frequency for RF applications
• Compact 0603 footprint suitable for space-constrained surface-mount designs
• Low DC resistance of 80 mΩ for efficient power handling

Fixed Inductors Applications

• RF circuits requiring precise low-inductance values
• High-density surface-mount assembly processes
• General-purpose filtering in high-frequency signal paths

Fixed Inductors Procurement Notes

Verify the complete part number including the suffix EGTS to ensure correct tolerance and packaging specifications. Confirm RoHS3 compliance status if required by your manufacturing standards. Check the manufacturer's datasheet for specific handling precautions related to the ceramic core construction. Ensure compatibility with your reflow soldering profile given the 125°C operating limit.

Fixed Inductors Selection Notes

Select this component when a very low inductance value near 3.3 nH is critical for circuit stability. The unshielded design may require consideration for electromagnetic interference in dense layouts. Verify that the 700 mA current rating meets the peak operational demands of the application. The 0603 size balances performance with board space efficiency.

Fixed Inductors Part Context

This component belongs to the 0603CS series of fixed inductors manufactured by Delta Electronics/Components. The series utilizes a wirewound construction on a ceramic core, optimized for high-frequency stability. Similar parts in the series vary primarily in inductance values and tolerance ratings while maintaining the same physical dimensions and mounting characteristics.

Fixed Inductors Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other 0603 wirewound inductors offering 3.3 nH ±2% tolerance. Ensure substitute components match the 80 mΩ DCR and 700 mA current rating. Verify that alternative parts also support the 6 GHz self-resonant frequency requirement.
