2512061216Y0

Overview

Fair-Rite 2512061216Y0 is a multilayer ferrite chip bead in a 1206 (3216 metric) SMD package. It provides 16 Ohms impedance at 100 MHz with a 25% tolerance. The component supports a maximum DC current of 4 A and has a maximum DC resistance of 15 mOhms. Operating temperature ranges from -55°C to +125°C. Physical dimensions are 3.2 mm length, 1.6 mm width, and 1.1 mm height.

Feature Summary

• Multilayer construction for compact surface-mount integration
• High current handling capability suitable for power line filtering
• Low DC resistance minimizes signal attenuation

Applications

• DC power line noise suppression
• Signal integrity protection on high-current traces
• EMI filtering in portable electronic devices

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific impedance value against official Fair-Rite datasheets prior to procurement, as distributor listings may contain discrepancies or generic placeholders. Confirm RoHS compliance status directly with the manufacturer documentation. Ensure the 1206 footprint matches your PCB layout requirements exactly.

Selection Notes

Select this component when low impedance loss is critical alongside high current capacity. The 1206 package offers a balance between thermal performance and board space efficiency. Compare the 16 Ohm specification against similar parts like the 2512061217Y0 if higher attenuation is required, noting the trade-off in current handling capabilities.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Fair-Rite 25 series of multilayer ferrite chip beads. These components utilize proprietary ferrite materials optimized for broadband noise absorption.
