CTS4F-333K

Fixed Inductors Overview

The CTS4F-333K is a fixed shielded molded inductor manufactured by Central Technologies. It features an axial lead configuration and offers a nominal inductance of 33 mH with a tolerance of ±10%. The component has a maximum DC resistance of 222 Ohms and a rated current of 32 mA. It operates within a temperature range of -55°C to 125°C, ensuring thermal stability through its molded core design.

Fixed Inductors Feature Summary

• Shielded molded construction for electromagnetic interference reduction
• Axial leaded package for through-hole mounting
• Amorphous magnetic core material for stable performance

Fixed Inductors Applications

• General purpose filtering circuits
• Power supply input stages
• Signal conditioning applications

Fixed Inductors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific tolerance suffix (K) matches the required circuit specifications. Confirm that the 32 mA current rating and 222 Ohm DC resistance are compatible with the target application load. Ensure the axial lead spacing fits the PCB layout constraints before ordering.

Fixed Inductors Selection Notes

Select this component when high inductance values are required in an axial form factor. The shielded design minimizes magnetic field leakage, making it suitable for dense layouts. Consider the relatively low current rating when designing power paths.

Fixed Inductors Part Context

This part belongs to the CTS4F series of shielded axial inductors from Central Technologies. The series provides various inductance values using amorphous magnetic cores. The '333' code denotes the 33 mH value, while 'K' indicates the ±10% tolerance class.

Fixed Inductors Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes must match the 33 mH inductance, 32 mA current rating, and axial package dimensions. Verify that alternative components offer comparable shielding and DC resistance characteristics to maintain circuit performance.
