Fixed Inductors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet version for the 2150-30F to confirm exact electrical tolerances and physical dimensions. Ensure compatibility with RoHS regulations if required by the end application, as legacy API Delevan parts may vary in compliance status. Cross-reference manufacturer documentation for precise handling and storage guidelines.

Fixed Inductors Selection Notes

Select this component when a high-inductance value (18 µH) with tight tolerance (±1%) is required for RF applications. The axial lead format facilitates easy insertion into printed circuit boards. Consider the 445 mA current rating and 700 mΩ resistance for power loss calculations in the target circuit design.

Fixed Inductors Part Context

This part belongs to the Delevan 2150/R series of fixed RF inductors. The series utilizes molded coil technology with axial leads. These components are designed for reliability in electronic assemblies requiring stable inductance values across varying environmental conditions.

Fixed Inductors Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other 18 µH ±1% axial RF inductors from manufacturers such as Fastron or Coilcraft. Verify that replacement parts match the 700 mΩ DCR limit and 445 mA current rating to ensure circuit performance equivalence.
