10M680K

Overview

The 10M680K is a fixed wirewound inductor from Gowanda Electronics, featuring a nominal inductance of 680 nH with a tolerance of ±10%. It utilizes an unshielded molded construction and is designed for axial through-hole mounting. The component incorporates a ferrite core to support its RF applications. It has a maximum DC resistance of 600 mΩ and a rated current of 495 mA. The device operates within a temperature range of -55°C to +125°C.

Feature Summary

• Unshielded molded wirewound construction
• Axial leaded through-hole configuration
• Ferrite core design

Applications

• RF circuits
• General purpose filtering
• Signal processing

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix (e.g., LF) if RoHS compliance is required, as standard part numbers may vary. Confirm that the axial package and unshielded design align with PCB layout constraints. Ensure the 495 mA current rating meets circuit requirements. Check for availability of equivalent non-magnetic variants if MRI compatibility is needed.

Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring compact axial inductors with low inductance values. The unshielded design necessitates careful placement to minimize electromagnetic interference with nearby traces. Verify that the 600 mΩ DC resistance does not introduce excessive voltage drop or power loss in the target circuit path.

Part Context

This part belongs to Gowanda's line of molded RF coils, which are engineered for reliability in demanding environments. The manufacturer specializes in custom and standard magnetic components for aerospace, defense, and medical sectors, offering both standard and non-magnetic options.

Replacement Considerations

The 10M680KLF serves as the RoHS-compliant version of this component. For medical imaging applications where magnetic materials are prohibited, the 10MG680K non-magnetic variant is available.
