106-153F

Overview

The Delevan 106-153F is a fixed surface-mount RF inductor with an inductance of 15 µH and a tolerance of ±1%. It features a maximum DC resistance of 5.2 Ohms and a rated current of 135 mA. The component utilizes an unshielded design within a nonstandard two-lead SMD package, suitable for high-frequency applications.

Feature Summary

• Surface-mount construction for automated PCB assembly
• Unshielded core design to minimize magnetic interference
• Optimized for radio frequency signal processing

Applications

• RF circuit filtering
• Impedance matching networks
• High-frequency signal conditioning

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific manufacturer designation, as API Delevan assets are often managed by other entities. Confirm RoHS compliance status, as sources indicate non-compliance. Ensure the unshielded SMD package matches the target footprint requirements before integration.

Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring precise 15 µH inductance in a compact SMD form factor. Consider the 5.2 Ohm DC resistance and 135 mA current limit when designing power stages. The unshielded nature requires careful layout planning to prevent crosstalk in dense RF environments.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Delevan fixed inductor family, specifically designed for RF and general-purpose electronic circuits. It represents a standard passive component used in signal chain management, distinct from shielded or high-current power chokes found in other product lines.

Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other 15 µH ±1% SMD RF inductors. Verify that substitute components match the 5.2 Ohm DCR and 135 mA rating while maintaining compatible physical dimensions for the existing PCB footprint.
