Fixed Inductors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet version and RoHS compliance status directly with the manufacturer or authorized distributor before procurement. Confirm that the 17 mA current rating meets the application requirements. Ensure the axial lead spacing matches the target PCB footprint. Check for any ordering suffixes that may indicate different tolerance or packaging options.

Fixed Inductors Selection Notes

Select this component when high inductance values are required in a compact axial form factor. The low current rating of 17 mA limits suitability for high-power applications. Consider the high DC resistance for voltage drop calculations. Compare against similar series parts like CTS4F for potential dimensional or performance variations if space constraints exist.

Fixed Inductors Part Context

This part belongs to the CTS3F series of shielded inductors from Central Technologies. The series offers various inductance values ranging from microhenries to millihenries. The '223' code indicates the 22 mH value. These components are designed for general-purpose use where shielding is necessary to prevent magnetic field interference with nearby circuitry.

Fixed Inductors Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other CTS3F series variants with matching electrical parameters. Cross-reference with CTS4F series for similar shielding but potentially different dimensions. Verify that any replacement maintains the 17 mA current rating and 274 Ohm DCR limits to ensure circuit compatibility.
