HBWS1608-8N2J

Overview

The HBWS1608-8N2J is a fixed wire-wound ceramic inductor from Max Echo's HBWS series, housed in a 0603 (1608 Metric) surface-mount package. It features an inductance of 8.2 nH with a tolerance of ±5%. The component has a maximum DC resistance of 100 mOhm and a current rating of 700 mA. It is designed as an unshielded inductor suitable for high-frequency applications.

Feature Summary

• Utilizes precision winding technology to achieve high-density construction on small ceramic cores.
• Designed for high-Q performance and high self-resonant frequency characteristics typical of the HBWS series.

Applications

• RF circuits requiring compact inductance solutions
• High-frequency signal filtering in consumer electronics
• Impedance matching networks in wireless communication devices

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'J' corresponds to the required ±5% tolerance during procurement. Confirm that the 0603 footprint matches the PCB design constraints. Ensure the 700 mA current rating meets the operational requirements of the target circuit to prevent saturation or overheating issues.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a low-inductance value near 8.2 nH is required in a standard 0603 footprint. Consider the unshielded nature of the part regarding potential magnetic interference with nearby components. Evaluate the 100 mOhm DCR against power loss constraints in the application.

Part Context

This part belongs to the HBWS series, which utilizes ceramic cores for wire-wound inductors. Max Echo specializes in multilayer chip inductors, and this series emphasizes high-density manufacturing capabilities. The 0603 size allows for space-constrained designs while maintaining electrical performance.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes must match the 8.2 nH inductance, 0603 package, and similar current ratings. Check datasheets for equivalent parts from other manufacturers offering wire-wound ceramic inductors with comparable Q factors and SRF specifications.
