CT1008CSF-121J

Fixed Inductors Overview

The CT1008CSF-121J is a lead-free, RoHS-compliant general-purpose wire-wound chip inductor from Central Technologies. It features a ceramic core and operates within a -40°C to +125°C temperature range. The component has a nominal inductance of 120 nH with a ±5% tolerance (code J) and a maximum DC resistance of 0.63 Ω. It supports a maximum rated current of 0.65 A and includes dual-ended surface mount terminals.

Fixed Inductors Feature Summary

• Lead-free construction compliant with RoHS standards
• Ceramic core design for stable RF performance
• Dual-ended surface mount terminal configuration

Fixed Inductors Applications

• RF circuit filtering
• General purpose signal processing
• High-frequency choke applications

Fixed Inductors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific tolerance code 'J' corresponds to ±5% when ordering. Confirm that the lead-free designation aligns with project requirements. Ensure the 1008 package dimensions fit the target PCB layout. Cross-reference the 0.63 Ω DC resistance limit against circuit constraints.

Fixed Inductors Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring precise 120 nH inductance with tight ±5% tolerance. The ceramic core offers stability suitable for RF environments. Verify that the 0.65 A current rating meets the operational load. Consider the 1008 footprint for space-constrained designs.

Fixed Inductors Part Context

This part belongs to the CT1008CSF series of wire-wound chip inductors. The series provides various inductance values ranging from nanohenries to microhenries. The 'F' suffix indicates lead-free compliance, distinguishing it from standard tin-lead variants in the CT1008CS line.

Fixed Inductors Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include other 1008 package ceramic-core inductors with 120 nH nominal value and ±5% tolerance. Verify matching DC resistance and current ratings before substitution.
