CTSMDS4F-100K

Fixed Inductors Overview

The CTSMDS4F-100K is a surface mount shielded RF inductor manufactured by Central Technologies. It features a nominal inductance of 10 µH with a tolerance of ±10%. The component has a maximum DC resistance of 1.27 Ohms and operates within a temperature range of -55 °C to +125 °C. It utilizes a 2-SMD J-Lead package measuring 12.80mm x 6.05mm with a seated height of 5.80mm.

Fixed Inductors Feature Summary

• Shielded construction for reduced electromagnetic interference
• J-Lead termination style for automated assembly
• High-temperature operation capability up to 125 °C

Fixed Inductors Applications

• RF circuit filtering
• Power supply input/output stages
• General purpose signal conditioning

Fixed Inductors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'K' confirms the ±10% tolerance rating as documented in official datasheets. Ensure the ordering part number matches the exact physical dimensions and lead configuration required for the target PCB footprint. Confirm RoHS compliance status through the manufacturer's current documentation before finalizing procurement orders.

Fixed Inductors Selection Notes

Select this component when a shielded SMD inductor with J-Lead termination is required for high-frequency applications. The 10 µH value suits moderate frequency filtering needs. Consider the 1.27 Ohm DCR limit for efficiency requirements. Verify thermal management capabilities given the 125 °C operating limit compared to standard 105 °C alternatives.

Fixed Inductors Part Context

This part belongs to the CTSMDS4F series of shielded RF inductors from Central Technologies. The series offers various inductance values ranging from low microhenries to higher ranges, all sharing similar shielded construction and J-Lead packaging characteristics for consistent manufacturing integration.

Fixed Inductors Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other CTSMDS4F series variants with matching inductance and tolerance. Cross-brand replacements require verifying identical J-Lead dimensions and shielding effectiveness to ensure mechanical and electrical compatibility without redesigning the PCB layout.
