CT0805CSF-152G

Fixed Inductors Overview

The CT0805CSF-152G is a fixed wirewound inductor manufactured by Central Technologies, housed in an 0805 surface-mount package. It features a nominal inductance of 1.5 µH with a tight tolerance of ±2%. The component exhibits a DC resistance of 2.5 Ohms and supports a maximum rated current of 0.26 A. Designed for reliability, it operates within a temperature range of -40 °C to 125 °C and complies with RoHS standards.

Fixed Inductors Feature Summary

• Utilizes a ceramic core construction for stable performance
• Offers high precision with a ±2% inductance tolerance
• Supports surface-mount technology for automated assembly

Fixed Inductors Applications

• RF filter circuits
• High-frequency signal processing
• General-purpose chokes

Fixed Inductors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'G' corresponds to the required ±2% tolerance during ordering, as other suffixes indicate different tolerances. Confirm that the 0805 footprint matches the target PCB design. Ensure the 2.5 Ohm DC resistance and 0.26 A current rating align with the circuit requirements before finalizing procurement.

Fixed Inductors Selection Notes

Select this component when precise inductance control is critical for RF or high-frequency applications. The 0805 package size offers a balance between power handling and board space efficiency. Consider the 2.5 Ohm DC resistance impact on voltage drop and the 0.26 A current limit to prevent saturation or overheating in the intended circuit topology.

Fixed Inductors Part Context

This part belongs to the CT0805CSF series of general-purpose chip inductors from Central Technologies. The series provides various inductance values ranging from low nanohenries to microhenries, all sharing the same 0805 physical dimensions and ceramic core construction, allowing for consistent design practices across different frequency requirements.

Fixed Inductors Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other CT0805CSF-152 variants with different tolerances (e.g., J for ±5%, K for ±10%) if precision is not critical. Cross-manufacturer equivalents must match the 1.5 µH value, 0805 footprint, and similar electrical parameters.
