Fixed Inductors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific manufacturer designation, as API Delevan components may be sourced under various corporate identities. Confirm that the 3% tolerance and 25 Ohm DC resistance specifications align with your circuit requirements. Ensure the axial package dimensions fit your PCB layout constraints. Check for RoHS compliance status if required by your manufacturing standards. Validate the source document authenticity against official manufacturer archives.

Fixed Inductors Selection Notes

Select this component when a high inductance value of 1.5 mH is required in a compact axial form factor. The 76 mA current rating suits low-power RF applications where higher current handling is unnecessary. Consider the unshielded nature of the coil for placement away from sensitive magnetic components. The 3% tolerance offers precision for critical tuning applications compared to wider tolerance alternatives.

Fixed Inductors Part Context

This inductor is part of the 2500/R series, which encompasses various molded axial RF coils. The series is characterized by consistent physical dimensions across different inductance values, allowing for standardized PCB footprints within a design family. It serves as a fixed inductor solution for specialized RF engineering needs.

Fixed Inductors Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include the 2500R-36G and 2500-36J, which share similar physical profiles and functional categories within the same product line. Verify electrical parameters such as inductance and current ratings before substitution.
