4700-006MLF

Overview

The 4700-006MLF is a surface-mount EMI feedthrough capacitor manufactured by Tusonix, a subsidiary of CTS Electronic Components. This component belongs to the 4700 series and features a three-terminal LC (Pi) network filter configuration. It provides a capacitance of 100 pF with a DC voltage rating of 100 VDC. The device supports a current rating of 10 A and operates within a temperature range of -55°C to +125°C. Its physical dimensions are 8 mm in length, 2.29 mm in width, and 2.29 mm in height. The unit utilizes a square pill package style suitable for automated surface-mount assembly.

Feature Summary

• Integrates an LC Pi-network topology for enhanced high-frequency noise attenuation
• Features a three-terminal design with a dedicated ground connection for effective shielding
• Constructed in a compact surface-mount square pill package for board space efficiency

Applications

• EMI/RFI filtering in portable electronic devices
• Signal conditioning in automotive electronics systems
• Noise suppression in industrial control equipment

Procurement Notes

Verify RoHS3 compliance status as indicated by the MLF suffix. Confirm the specific tolerance class required for the application, as datasheets may list variations. Ensure the selected packaging format matches the production line capabilities. Cross-reference the manufacturer part number with distributor codes to avoid ordering errors. Validate thermal performance requirements against the specified operating temperature range.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a low-capacitance, high-current surface-mount filter is required. The 100 pF value suits high-speed signal lines needing minimal loading. The 10 A rating allows use in power distribution paths with moderate current loads. Consider the three-terminal grounding advantage for superior RF performance compared to standard two-terminal capacitors. Evaluate the small footprint against available PCB real estate constraints.

Part Context

This part is part of the Tusonix 4700 series of feedthrough capacitors. The series offers various capacitance values and configurations for EMI suppression. The MLF suffix typically denotes lead-free and halogen-free construction compliant with environmental directives. These components are designed to replace traditional through-hole filters in modern surface-mount assemblies.

Replacement Considerations

Check for direct substitutes within the same series offering identical electrical parameters. Verify that alternative packages maintain the same mounting footprint and terminal configuration. Ensure any replacement meets the same current and voltage ratings. Confirm compatibility with existing soldering profiles and manufacturing processes.
