106-100J

Overview

The Delevan 106-100J is an unshielded surface-mount RF inductor with a nominal inductance of 10 nH and a tolerance of ±5%. It features a maximum DC resistance of 70 mΩ and supports a maximum DC current of 1.2 A. The component exhibits a minimum Q factor of 40 at 100 MHz and reaches a self-resonant frequency of 3.8 GHz. Designed for PCB mounting, it operates within a temperature range of -55°C to +125°C.

Feature Summary

• Unshielded construction suitable for high-frequency RF applications
• High self-resonant frequency enabling operation up to 3.8 GHz
• Robust thermal performance across a wide operating temperature range

Applications

• RF choke circuits
• Impedance matching networks
• Filtering in radio frequency systems

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific manufacturer designation, as API Delevan assets are held by other entities. Confirm RoHS compliance status and lead-free availability directly with authorized suppliers. Ensure the ordering suffix matches the required packaging format. Validate that the component meets all environmental regulations applicable to your region before finalizing procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a low-inductance value near 10 nH is required for RF filtering or choking. The unshielded design minimizes parasitic capacitance but may require careful layout to prevent coupling. Verify that the 1.2 A current rating exceeds the peak circuit currents. Ensure the PCB footprint accommodates the non-standard package dimensions provided in the datasheet.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Delevan fixed inductor family, specifically designed for radio frequency applications. It utilizes a phenolic core material to achieve stable inductance values at high frequencies. The series is characterized by its compact surface-mount form factor, allowing for dense PCB layouts in consumer electronics and communication devices.

Replacement Considerations

Publicly confirmed substitute part numbers are not available in the provided documentation. Cross-referencing requires manual verification of electrical parameters and physical dimensions against potential alternatives.
