15M150K

Overview

The Gowanda Electronics 15M150K is a general-purpose, unshielded molded RF inductor designed for axial through-hole mounting. It features a nominal inductance of 150 nH with a tolerance of ±10%. The component utilizes a phenolic core and offers a maximum DC resistance of 30 mΩ. It supports a maximum rated current of 2.45 A and operates within a temperature range of -55 °C to +125 °C.

Feature Summary

• Unshielded molded construction for standard RF applications
• Axial lead configuration for through-hole PCB integration
• Phenolic core material supporting high-frequency operation

Applications

• RF circuit filtering
• General-purpose signal processing
• High-frequency impedance matching

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix (e.g., K for 10% tolerance) against the required design specifications. Confirm that the axial lead spacing matches the target PCB footprint. Ensure the operating environment remains within the specified -55 °C to +125 °C thermal limits to maintain performance integrity.

Selection Notes

Select this component when an unshielded axial inductor is required for low-inductance RF circuits. The 150 nH value suits high-frequency applications where minimal magnetic shielding is acceptable. Consider the 2.45 A current rating for power handling requirements in signal paths.

Part Context

This part belongs to Gowanda's 15M series of fixed inductors, which are characterized by their molded, unshielded design. The series provides various inductance values tailored for general-purpose and RF applications, utilizing axial leads for reliable through-hole mounting on printed circuit boards.

Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other Gowanda 15M series variants for different inductance values. Verify compatibility with equivalent unshielded axial inductors from other manufacturers if supply constraints exist, ensuring identical electrical parameters and physical dimensions.
