CMT-8112-B

Common Mode Chokes Overview

The Triad Magnetics CMT-8112-B is a through-hole common mode choke from the CMT series. It features an inductance of 8 mH at 1 kHz and supports a maximum DC current of 5.6 A. The component has a maximum DC resistance of 0.055 ohms (55 mOhms). It operates within a temperature range of -55°C to 105°C. The unit utilizes radial termination for PCB mounting.

Common Mode Chokes Feature Summary

• Provides common mode noise filtering for two-line circuits
• Designed for vertical through-hole PCB mounting
• Capable of handling high DC currents with low resistance

Common Mode Chokes Applications

• Power supply input filtering
• EMI suppression in electronic equipment
• Signal line protection against common mode interference

Common Mode Chokes Procurement Notes

Verify the exact part number suffix, as 'CMT-8112-B' denotes specific packaging or variant details compared to the base model. Confirm RoHS compliance status and certification marks such as UL, CSA, or VDE required for your target market. Ensure the datasheet matches the physical dimensions and pinout for your PCB layout.

Common Mode Chokes Selection Notes

Select this component when an 8 mH inductance value is required for common mode noise reduction. The 5.6 A current rating suits applications with moderate power loads. Verify that the radial lead spacing fits the board design. Consider the operating temperature range if the environment exceeds standard limits.

Common Mode Chokes Part Context

This component belongs to the Triad Magnetics CMT series of common mode chokes. These filters are engineered for general-purpose EMI suppression. The series offers various inductance and current ratings to accommodate different circuit requirements while maintaining compact form factors for PCB integration.

Common Mode Chokes Replacement Considerations

The CMT-8112 is the base model without the '-B' suffix. Verify if the suffix indicates a specific reel or tape configuration rather than a functional change. Check alternative manufacturers for similar 8 mH, 5.6 A radial chokes if supply constraints exist.
