BK1608HS121-TV

Overview

The BK1608HS121-TV is a multilayer chip ferrite bead designed for automotive applications. It features a 0603 (1608 metric) surface-mount package with dimensions of 1.60mm length and 0.80mm width. The component provides an impedance of 120 Ohms at 100 MHz and supports a maximum rated current of 600mA. Its maximum DC resistance is 150 milliohms. It operates within a temperature range of -55°C to 125°C and holds AEC-Q200 qualification.

Feature Summary

• AEC-Q200 qualified for automotive reliability
• Multilayer ceramic construction for high-frequency noise suppression
• Compact 0603 surface-mount footprint

Applications

• Automotive electronic circuits
• Industrial equipment signal lines
• Medical equipment power filtering

Procurement Notes

This part number is officially obsolete and no longer manufactured. Verification of end-of-life status is required before design integration. Sourcing must rely on available substitute components rather than original production units. Confirm that replacement parts meet the same electrical specifications and automotive qualification standards to ensure system compatibility.

Selection Notes

Select this component for designs requiring 120 Ohm impedance at 100 MHz in a 0603 package. Ensure the circuit current does not exceed 600mA to maintain performance. Verify that the application environment falls within the -55°C to 125°C operating range. Consider the low DC resistance of 150 milliohms for minimal voltage drop in power lines.
