B-06-R-50

Overview

The KEMET B-06-R-50 is a through-hole ferrite bead designed for signal line noise suppression. It features a leaded construction with a DC resistance of 40 Ohms and supports a current rating of 5 Amperes. Classified as a differential mode choke, this component operates in normal mode applications to attenuate high-frequency interference on signal lines.

Feature Summary

• Provides effective attenuation of high-frequency noise on signal lines
• Supports continuous operation at up to 5 Amperes
• Features a standard leaded package for through-hole mounting

Applications

• Signal line noise suppression
• Differential mode filtering
• Normal mode interference reduction

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet version for thermal derating curves and impedance frequency characteristics before integration. Confirm that the 40 Ohm DC resistance aligns with the target circuit's voltage drop requirements. Ensure the 5A current rating exceeds the maximum expected load under all operating conditions to prevent saturation or overheating.

Selection Notes

Select this component when low-cost, high-current signal line filtering is required. The 40 Ohm resistance provides significant attenuation but may introduce voltage drop; verify compatibility with sensitive signal sources. The through-hole format is suitable for prototyping or boards where surface area is less constrained than in dense SMD designs.

Part Context

This part belongs to KEMET's ferrite bead family, specifically engineered for electromagnetic interference (EMI) suppression. It serves as a passive component to block unwanted high-frequency signals while allowing DC or low-frequency currents to pass, commonly used in power and data line protection strategies.
