HBWS1608-20NJ

Overview

The HBWS1608-20NJ is a fixed wirewound inductor manufactured by Max Echo. It features an unshielded design with an inductance value of 20 nH. The component is housed in a 0603 (1608 Metric) surface-mount package. It supports a maximum current rating of 700 mA and has a maximum DC resistance of 220 mOhm.

Feature Summary

• Unshielded wirewound construction for RF applications
• Compact 0603 surface-mount footprint
• Low DC resistance profile

Applications

• RF circuits
• Power applications
• DC-DC converters

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific manufacturer datasheet to confirm tolerance, temperature coefficients, and saturation current limits before integration. Ensure the ordering suffix matches the required packaging format. Cross-reference the part number with official distributor catalogs to validate availability and lead times against project schedules.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a low-inductance, unshielded solution is required for high-frequency or power management circuits. The 0603 package size suits space-constrained designs. Evaluate the 700 mA current rating against peak load requirements to ensure reliable operation without saturation.

Part Context

This part belongs to the HBWS series of chip inductors from Max Echo Technology. The series utilizes precise wirewound technology for stable performance in electronic components. Max Echo focuses on magnetic materials and ceramic processes for industrial and automotive markets.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other 20 nH unshielded wirewound inductors in the 0603 package with comparable current ratings. Verify pin compatibility and thermal characteristics when swapping manufacturers.
