15M152K

Overview

The 15M152K is a general purpose unshielded molded axial inductor manufactured by Gowanda Electronics. It features an iron-ferrite core and provides a nominal inductance of 15 µH with a tolerance of ±10%. The component has a maximum DC resistance of 1.4 Ω and a rated current of 240 mA. It operates within a temperature range of -55 °C to +105 °C.

Feature Summary

• Unshielded molded construction for standard RF applications
• Axial lead configuration for through-hole mounting
• Iron-ferrite core material for general purpose use

Applications

• RF circuits
• General purpose filtering
• Signal processing

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific part number suffix against official Gowanda documentation to confirm compliance status, as lead-free variants may exist. Confirm that the axial package dimensions and lead spacing match the target PCB layout requirements before finalizing procurement orders.

Selection Notes

Select this component when an unshielded axial inductor with 15 µH nominal value is required. Ensure the application current does not exceed the 240 mA rating and that the operating environment stays within the specified temperature limits. Consider shielding requirements if electromagnetic interference is a concern.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Gowanda 15M series of fixed inductors. These components are designed for aerospace, defense, and medical applications requiring high-performance magnetic components. The series offers various inductance values with consistent axial packaging.

Replacement Considerations

The 15M152KLF is a lead-free compliant variant of the same electrical specification. Verify RoHS compliance requirements when substituting between these suffixes.
