BD5.1/1.5/10-3C90

Overview

The Ferroxcube BD5.1/1.5/10-3C90 is a cylindrical soft ferrite bead designed for electromagnetic interference suppression in electronic circuits. It utilizes the proprietary 3C90 manganese-zinc ferrite material, which provides high magnetic permeability and low core losses at elevated frequencies. The component features a single-hole geometry with an outer diameter of 5.1 mm, an inner diameter of 1.5 mm, and a length of 10 mm. This configuration allows it to be easily mounted over cables or wires to attenuate common-mode noise without requiring additional mounting hardware.

Feature Summary

• Constructed from 3C90 manganese-zinc ferrite material optimized for high-frequency noise attenuation
• Features a cylindrical single-hole design suitable for direct cable wrapping applications
• Provides effective common-mode electromagnetic interference suppression in signal and power lines

Applications

• Suppression of electromagnetic interference on data communication cables
• Noise filtering on power supply input and output wiring
• Common-mode choke applications in consumer electronics assemblies

Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific order matches the exact dimensional requirements of 5.1 mm outer diameter and 1.5 mm inner diameter. Confirm the material grade is 3C90 as specified by the model suffix. Ensure the package contains the standard single-unit beads rather than pre-assembled variants. Check for RoHS compliance documentation if required by your manufacturing standards.

Selection Notes

Select this component when space constraints require a compact cylindrical form factor for cable-mounted noise suppression. The 3C90 material offers a balance of permeability and loss characteristics suitable for general-purpose EMI reduction. Consider the thermal environment and current carrying capacity of the wire passing through the center hole during selection.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Ferroxcube BD series of soft ferrite beads. These components are widely used across various industries for passive noise control. The BD series complements Ferroxcube's broader portfolio of transformer cores and accessories, providing standardized solutions for EMC compliance in modern electronic devices.

Replacement Considerations

Substitute parts must match the 5.1 mm outer diameter, 1.5 mm inner diameter, and 10 mm length dimensions. Verify that alternative materials offer comparable impedance characteristics at the target frequency range. Ensure mechanical fit within the assembly housing remains unchanged.
