CTDO1608CF-682

Fixed Inductors Overview

The CTDO1608CF-682 is a fixed surface-mount power inductor manufactured by Central Technologies. It features an unshielded wirewound construction with a ceramic core, housed in a nonstandard package measuring approximately 6.58 x 4.45 x 2.92 mm. The component provides a nominal inductance of 6.8 µH and supports a maximum rated current of 1.4 A. Its DC resistance is specified at 130 mΩ, ensuring low power loss in high-current applications.

Fixed Inductors Feature Summary

• Unshielded wirewound design for general power filtering
• High current handling capability up to 1.4 A
• Low DC resistance of 130 mΩ for efficiency

Fixed Inductors Applications

• DC-DC converter output filtering
• Power supply input stages
• General-purpose power circuitry

Fixed Inductors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific tolerance code required for your design when ordering, as it may affect performance characteristics. Confirm that the nonstandard package dimensions align with your PCB footprint requirements. Ensure the unshielded nature of the component does not interfere with nearby sensitive RF traces or components in your layout.

Fixed Inductors Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring moderate inductance values with high current capacity. The unshielded design is suitable where space constraints allow for adequate spacing from other components. Consider the 1.4 A rating against peak load currents to prevent saturation. Compare DCR specifications against thermal management capabilities in the final assembly.

Fixed Inductors Part Context

This part belongs to the CTDO1608CF series of unshielded power inductors from Central Technologies. Similar parts in the series include CTDO1608CF-222 and CTDO1608CF-472, which offer different inductance values but share the same physical form factor and construction style. This series is designed for compact power electronics designs.

Fixed Inductors Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same series include CTDO1608CF-222 and CTDO1608CF-472, though these have different inductance values. Cross-brand replacements must match the 6.8 µH value, 1.4 A current rating, and similar physical dimensions to ensure compatibility.
