Fixed Inductors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix designation against official API Delevan documentation to confirm lead times and availability status. Ensure that the ordering information matches the exact electrical specifications required for the target application. Cross-reference the manufacturer's latest datasheet to confirm compliance with current environmental standards and RoHS directives before finalizing procurement orders.

Fixed Inductors Selection Notes

Select this component when a low-inductance value near 100 nH is required for RF circuits. The unshielded design necessitates careful PCB layout to minimize electromagnetic interference coupling with adjacent traces. Evaluate the 650 mA current rating against peak load requirements to prevent saturation. Consider the 650 MHz self-resonant frequency limit to ensure operation remains within the effective inductive range.

Fixed Inductors Part Context

This part belongs to the Delevan 103 series of fixed RF inductors. These components are engineered for surface-mount technology integration. The series offers various inductance values optimized for radio frequency environments.
