CTS3F-272J

Fixed Inductors Overview

The CTS3F-272J is a shielded axial lead molded inductor from Central Technologies. It features a nominal inductance of 2700 µH with a tolerance of ±5%. The component has a maximum DC resistance of 47 Ω and a self-resonant frequency of 0.92 MHz. It supports a maximum rated current of 40 mA and achieves a quality factor of 47 at the nominal inductance. The package dimensions are 10.4 mm length by 4.06 mm diameter, designed for through-hole mounting.

Fixed Inductors Feature Summary

• Shielded molded construction to minimize electromagnetic interference
• Axial lead configuration for standard through-hole PCB integration
• General purpose inductor design suitable for RF applications

Fixed Inductors Applications

• RF filtering circuits
• Signal processing stages
• Power supply noise suppression

Fixed Inductors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix J indicates ±5% tolerance against the manufacturer's datasheet. Confirm the axial lead spacing matches your PCB footprint requirements. Ensure the 40 mA current rating meets the operational load conditions. Check RoHS compliance status if required by your assembly standards. Validate the 47 Ω DCR limit for your circuit design constraints.

Fixed Inductors Selection Notes

Select this component when a compact, shielded axial inductor is required for general-purpose applications. The 2700 µH value suits low-frequency filtering needs. The 40 mA current capacity limits usage to low-power signal paths. Consider the 0.92 MHz SRF for high-frequency isolation requirements. The molded case provides mechanical protection compared to unshielded variants.

Fixed Inductors Part Context

This part belongs to the CTS3F series of fixed inductors manufactured by Central Technologies. The series includes various inductance values ranging from nanohenries to millihenries. All parts in this line share the same axial molded package style. The series is designed for general electronic equipment requiring reliable passive components.

Fixed Inductors Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes must match the 2700 µH inductance, 40 mA current rating, and axial form factor. Verify equivalent shielding characteristics to prevent EMI issues. Cross-reference the DC resistance and Q-factor for circuit compatibility. No other specific part numbers are confirmed as direct replacements in public documentation.
