Fixed Inductors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix '3' indicates the correct inductance value of 68,000 µH when ordering. Confirm that the unshielded configuration meets the electromagnetic interference requirements of the target circuit. Ensure the 36 mA current rating aligns with the operational load to prevent performance degradation or thermal issues during continuous use.

Fixed Inductors Selection Notes

Select this component when a high inductance value is required in a radial package format. Consider the low current handling capability of 36 mA for appropriate circuit sizing. Evaluate the 115 Ohm DC resistance impact on voltage drop. Compare against shielded alternatives if magnetic coupling isolation is necessary for the specific application environment.

Fixed Inductors Part Context

This part belongs to the CTRL5480F series of fixed inductors from Central Technologies. The series offers various inductance values ranging from microhenries to millihenries. The 'F' designation typically denotes RoHS compliance. This specific model represents a high-inductance variant within the radial leaded product line.

Fixed Inductors Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference other Central Technologies radial inductors with matching 68,000 µH specifications. Verify physical dimensions and pin spacing compatibility before substitution. Ensure equivalent electrical parameters, particularly saturation current and DC resistance, are met to maintain circuit functionality.
