106-180K

Overview

The Delevan 106-180K is a fixed surface-mount RF inductor designed for high-frequency applications. It features an inductance of 18 nH with a tight tolerance of ±10%. The component exhibits a maximum DC resistance of 70 mOhms and supports a rated current of 1.2 A. Constructed as a shielded SMD device, it ensures signal integrity in compact circuit layouts.

Feature Summary

• Shielded surface-mount construction minimizes electromagnetic interference
• High-current capability suitable for RF power stages
• Compact form factor optimized for dense PCB integration

Applications

• RF signal filtering circuits
• Impedance matching networks
• Power supply choke applications

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific manufacturing lot and RoHS compliance status prior to procurement, as historical data indicates non-compliance variants may exist. Confirm that the shielded package type aligns with your EMI requirements. Ensure the 1.2 A current rating meets your peak load demands without saturation.

Selection Notes

Select this component when low inductance values are required for high-frequency operation. The 70 mOhm resistance aids in efficiency, while the 1.2 A rating provides robustness against transient currents. Consider the shielded design if adjacent components are sensitive to magnetic fields.

Part Context

This part belongs to the API Delevan 106 series, which specializes in general-purpose and RF fixed inductors. The series offers various inductance values tailored for passive component applications, balancing performance with standard surface-mount packaging constraints.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same manufacturer family include other 106-series variants with similar shielding and current ratings. Verify pin compatibility and inductance tolerances before swapping.
