Fixed Inductors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's official documentation to ensure correct tolerance and packaging configuration. Confirm that the selected variant meets the required RoHS compliance status for your region. Cross-reference the DC resistance and current ratings with your circuit design requirements before finalizing procurement orders to avoid compatibility issues.

Fixed Inductors Selection Notes

Select this component when a compact 0402 footprint is required for low-inductance RF applications. The 2.52 Ω DC resistance should be evaluated against power loss constraints in the target circuit. Ensure the operating environment stays within the -40 °C to 85 °C range. Consider the 6000 MHz self-resonant frequency limit to guarantee effective performance at the intended operating frequency.

Fixed Inductors Part Context

This part belongs to the CT0402QWF series of fixed inductors from Central Technologies. The series offers various inductance values in the standard 0402 SMD package. These components are engineered for use in consumer electronics and communication devices where space constraints and high-frequency stability are critical design factors.

Fixed Inductors Replacement Considerations

Consult official substitution guides for equivalent 0.1 µH, 0402, ±2% tolerance inductors. Verify that any substitute matches the 2.52 Ω DCR maximum and 0.38 A current rating. Ensure the replacement maintains the same ceramic-core wire-wound construction and RoHS compliance status.
