Fixed Inductors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix when purchasing to ensure the correct tolerance code is selected. The manufacturer specifies that the J suffix corresponds to a ±5% tolerance. Confirm RoHS compliance status if required for your assembly process, as availability may vary between compliant and non-compliant variants within the same series. Always cross-reference the part number against official datasheets to confirm current manufacturing status and specifications before finalizing procurement orders.

Fixed Inductors Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring a standard 820 µH inductance with tight ±5% tolerance. The shielded axial design is suitable for environments where electromagnetic interference needs to be contained. Ensure the operating temperature range of -55 °C to 125 °C meets your system requirements. Consider the physical dimensions and lead spacing for PCB layout compatibility.

Fixed Inductors Part Context

This part belongs to the CT187LYF series of fixed inductors from Central Technologies. The series includes various inductance values ranging from low microhenry to high millihenry levels. The 'J' suffix denotes the specific tolerance grade for this unit. Similar parts in the family include the CT187LYF-822J and CT187LYF-331J, which share the same form factor but differ in inductance values.

Fixed Inductors Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same series include CT187LYF-821K for a ±10% tolerance variant. Other compatible options may include the CTS4F-821J or CTS3-821J, which offer similar 820 µH inductance values. Verify pinout and mechanical dimensions before substituting.
