• Utilizes a wirewound construction to achieve low direct current resistance while maintaining specified impedance characteristics.

Chip Ferrite Bead Applications

• Power line filtering in portable electronic devices
• Noise suppression in automotive electronics systems
• Signal integrity management in industrial control equipment

Chip Ferrite Bead Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix and packaging configuration, such as reel or cut tape, against official distributor catalogs before purchase. Confirm RoHS compliance status and lead times directly with authorized suppliers, as availability varies. Ensure the selected variant matches the required impedance and current ratings for the target circuit design.

Chip Ferrite Bead Selection Notes

Select this component when circuit designs demand high current handling capabilities alongside moderate noise attenuation. The 1206 footprint offers a balance between current capacity and board space efficiency. Evaluate the 5 milliohm DC resistance to ensure minimal voltage drop across the component under full load conditions.

Chip Ferrite Bead Part Context

This part belongs to the LMMC series of high-current ferrite beads from Taiyo Yuden. The series is characterized by its ability to handle significant DC currents without saturation, making it suitable for power distribution networks where standard ferrite beads might fail due to excessive current flow.

Chip Ferrite Bead Replacement Considerations

The FBMJ3216HL160NTV is documented as a suggested alternate part number for this component. Verify electrical compatibility, specifically impedance and current ratings, before substitution.
