108R-153JS

Overview

The Delevan 108R-153JS is a surface-mount RF inductor designed for high-frequency circuit applications. It features an iron core and provides an inductance of 15 uH with a tolerance of 5%. The component has a maximum DC resistance of 4.2 ohms and operates within a temperature range of -55°C to 125°C. It utilizes a nonstandard two-lead package suitable for PCB mounting.

Feature Summary

• Utilizes an iron core for stable inductive performance
• Designed for surface-mount technology (SMT) integration
• Capable of operating across a wide industrial temperature spectrum

Applications

• RF signal processing circuits
• High-frequency filtering stages
• General-purpose RF choke applications

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific manufacturer designation, as API Delevan assets are often managed by other entities. Confirm the exact physical dimensions against the target PCB footprint, as the package is classified as nonstandard. Ensure the supplier source aligns with current authorized distribution channels for this component series.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 15 uH value with tight 5% tolerance is required for RF environments. The 4.2 ohm DC resistance limits current handling, making it suitable for low-current signal paths rather than power delivery. Verify thermal requirements against the 125°C maximum rating.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Delevan SMD RF inductor family, characterized by shielded or molded constructions for compact electronics. The 153 suffix indicates the standard 15 uH inductance value across various package sizes in this product line.
