Fixed Inductors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'K' against official Stackpole documentation to confirm tolerance and availability status. Ensure the requested quantity aligns with standard tape and reel packaging requirements. Confirm RoHS compliance markings on the physical component match datasheet specifications. Validate that the operating current does not exceed the 120 mA rating under all thermal conditions.

Fixed Inductors Selection Notes

Select this component when a shielded inductor is required to minimize magnetic field leakage in compact designs. The 1.5 mH value suits applications needing moderate energy storage with limited current capacity. Consider the 4.2 Ohm DC resistance for voltage drop calculations. The SMT package allows for high-density PCB layouts compared to through-hole alternatives.
