15M471J

Overview

The Gowanda Electronics 15M471J is a fixed axial lead inductor with an inductance of 4.7 µH and a maximum DC resistance of 2.6 Ohms. It supports a maximum current rating of 260 mA and features an unshielded molded construction. The component operates within a standard temperature range suitable for general electronic applications.

Feature Summary

• Unshielded molded design
• Axial lead configuration
• Fixed inductance value

Applications

• General purpose filtering
• Signal processing circuits
• RF coil applications

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix (e.g., LF) to confirm RoHS compliance status, as manufacturing variations exist. Confirm axial lead spacing and package dimensions against PCB layout requirements. Ensure the 260 mA current rating meets circuit load demands. Check for lead-free availability if required by environmental standards.

Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring a compact, unshielded axial inductor with moderate current handling. Consider the 2.6 Ohm DC resistance impact on voltage drop. Evaluate space constraints for axial mounting versus surface mount alternatives like the MLRF series if board real estate is limited.

Part Context

Gowanda Electronics specializes in high-performance magnetic components for aerospace, defense, and medical sectors. The 15M471J belongs to their line of fixed inductors and RF coils, offering reliable performance for critical systems where standard commercial parts may not suffice.

Replacement Considerations

The MLRF15M471K offers similar electrical characteristics but utilizes a surface mount package rather than axial leads. Verify mechanical fit and soldering process compatibility when substituting between leaded and surface mount technologies.
