CT1008CSF-270G

Fixed Inductors Overview

The CT1008CSF-270G is a fixed surface-mount inductor from Central Technologies, designed for RF applications. It features a ceramic core and wire-wound construction within a 1008 package. The nominal inductance is 27 nH with a tolerance of ±2%. Key electrical parameters include a maximum DC resistance of 130 mΩ, a minimum quality factor of 65 at the test frequency, and a self-resilient frequency of 1600 MHz. It supports an operating temperature range of -40 °C to 125 °C.

Fixed Inductors Feature Summary

• Wire-wound construction on a ceramic core for stable RF performance
• High Q factor and self-resonant frequency suitable for high-frequency circuits
• RoHS compliant and lead-free manufacturing

Fixed Inductors Applications

• RF inductor circuits
• General purpose filtering
• Portable electronic equipment

Fixed Inductors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'G' indicates the ±2% tolerance code as required by the manufacturer's ordering specifications. Confirm RoHS compliance status and lead-free terminal finish (JESD-609 code e3) against current production data sheets. Ensure the 1008 package dimensions align with the target PCB footprint requirements before finalizing procurement orders.

Fixed Inductors Selection Notes

Select this component when a low-inductance value near 27 nH is required with tight tolerance precision. The high self-resonant frequency ensures effective operation in RF bands without parasitic interference. Consider the 130 mΩ DC resistance for power loss calculations in series configurations. Verify that the ceramic core material meets the thermal stability needs of the application environment.

Fixed Inductors Part Context

This part belongs to the CT1008CSF series of SMD wire-wound chip inductors manufactured by Central Technologies. The series offers a wide range of inductance values from nanohenries to microhenries in a standardized 1008 footprint. Variants differ primarily by inductance value and tolerance codes, sharing common physical and thermal characteristics.

Fixed Inductors Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes must match the 27 nH inductance, ±2% tolerance, 1008 package size, and ceramic core construction. Verify equivalent DC resistance and Q factor specifications to ensure circuit compatibility.
