ESD-FPL-14.5-5

Overview

The KEMET ESD-FPL-14.5-5 is a solid ferrite cable core designed for flat ribbon cables. It features an internal width of 11 mm and an internal height of 0.8 mm, with external dimensions of 14.5 mm in length, 5 mm in width, and 2.75 mm in height. The component utilizes Nickel-Zinc (Ni-Zn) material and supports frequencies up to 300 MHz. It operates within a temperature range of -55 °C to +85 °C and complies with RoHS standards.

Feature Summary

• Solid construction made from Nickel-Zinc ferrite material
• Specifically engineered for flat ribbon cable applications
• Supports frequency operations up to 300 MHz

Applications

• Electromagnetic interference suppression in consumer electronics
• Signal integrity protection for flat cable assemblies
• Common mode noise filtering in data transmission lines

Procurement Notes

Verify the current lifecycle status as sources indicate this part may be obsolete or subject to discontinuation. Confirm physical compatibility with specific flat cable thicknesses before procurement. Ensure compliance with RoHS directives if required by the target application environment.

Selection Notes

Select this component when shielding flat ribbon cables requires a solid core design rather than split types. The Ni-Zn composition offers high permeability at higher frequencies compared to Mn-Zn alternatives. Ensure the internal aperture dimensions match the target cable geometry precisely.

Part Context

This component belongs to the ESD-FPL series of ferrite cable cores manufactured by KEMET. These parts are distinct from toroidal rings and are optimized for wrapping around flat conductors to provide common-mode choke functionality without requiring cable disconnection.

Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other ESD-FPL series variants such as ESD-FPL-26 or ESD-FPL-32-12 for dimensional differences. Verify material composition and impedance characteristics against original requirements before substitution.
