Fixed Inductors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against manufacturer documentation to ensure correct packaging and tape specifications. Confirm that the 180 mA rated current meets the thermal requirements of the target application environment. Check RoHS compliance status if restricted substances are a concern for the end product.

Fixed Inductors Selection Notes

Select this component when a compact 0603 footprint is required for high-frequency applications near 930 MHz. Ensure the 3.6 Ohm DCR does not cause excessive voltage drop or power loss in the circuit path. Consider the unshielded nature of the design regarding potential electromagnetic interference with nearby sensitive components.
