Procurement Notes

Verify RoHS compliance status as the 'K' suffix typically indicates leaded composition compared to 'LF' variants. Confirm package dimensions and lead specifications against schematic requirements. Ensure thermal management aligns with the 105 °C maximum operating temperature limit during system integration.

Selection Notes

Select this component when unshielded axial inductors are required for RF circuits. Compare DCR and current ratings against load requirements. Consider shielding needs; if EMI isolation is critical, evaluate shielded alternatives within the same series. Verify core material suitability for the target frequency range.

Part Context

This part belongs to the 15M series of molded unshielded RF coils manufactured by Gowanda Electronics. The series offers various inductance values in axial packages for through-hole assembly. These components are engineered for high-performance applications in aerospace, defense, and medical sectors requiring reliable magnetic components.

Replacement Considerations

The 15M223KLF is the lead-free equivalent variant of this component. Verify that the absence of lead does not conflict with specific military or legacy manufacturing processes requiring traditional solder compositions.
