105-151MS

Overview

The API Delevan 105-151MS is a fixed RF inductor designed for surface mount applications. It features an unshielded wirewound construction with an iron core, providing an inductance of 0.15 uH and a tolerance of 20%. The component operates at a Q-factor of 40 at 25 MHz and supports a current rating of 0.775 A. Its maximum DC resistance is 0.16 Ohms. This passive component is supplied in tape and reel packaging for automated assembly processes.

Feature Summary

• Surface mount wirewound design suitable for high-frequency circuits
• Unshielded construction with iron core for specific RF characteristics
• Tape and reel packaging format for efficient SMT integration

Applications

• RF filtering circuits
• High-frequency electronic signal conditioning
• Impedance matching networks

Procurement Notes

Verify the active status of this component, as some sources indicate it may be obsolete or have limited availability. Confirm RoHS compliance details directly with the manufacturer or authorized distributors, as documentation varies. Ensure the specific ordering suffix matches the required lead-free status if applicable to your manufacturing standards.

Selection Notes

Select this part when an unshielded 150 nH inductor is required for surface mount PCB layouts. Consider the 0.775 A current rating and 0.16 Ohm DCR for power handling needs. The unshielded nature requires careful layout planning to minimize electromagnetic interference with nearby sensitive components compared to shielded alternatives.

Part Context

This component belongs to the API Delevan family of fixed inductors, specifically within their RF coil series. It represents a through-hole and surface mount option for passive components used in radio frequency applications. The manufacturer specializes in custom and standard coils for telecommunications and industrial electronics.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes are not explicitly confirmed in public documentation. Evaluate other API Delevan surface mount inductors with similar 150 nH values and current ratings. Verify that any replacement maintains the same Q-factor requirements and physical footprint compatibility for existing PCB designs.
