LQW04AN1N8C00D

Fixed Inductors Overview

The Murata LQW04AN1N8C00D is an unshielded wirewound fixed inductor designed for surface mount applications. It features a nominal inductance of 1.8 nH with a tolerance of ±0.2 nH, tested at 100 MHz. The component supports a maximum DC current of 700 mA and exhibits a maximum DC resistance of 60 mΩ. It operates within a temperature range of -55°C to +125°C and utilizes a 0302 (0804 metric) package measuring 0.8 mm x 0.4 mm x 0.4 mm.

Fixed Inductors Feature Summary

• Unshielded wirewound construction suitable for high-frequency RF circuits
• Compact 0302 surface mount footprint for dense PCB layouts
• Low DC resistance to minimize power loss in signal paths

Fixed Inductors Applications

• RF matching networks
• Impedance matching circuits
• High-frequency signal filtering

Fixed Inductors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'C' indicates the required 0.2 nH tolerance when ordering. Confirm the 0302 package dimensions match the target PCB land pattern. Ensure the 700 mA current rating meets the circuit's operational requirements. Check RoHS compliance status if restricted substances are a concern for the assembly process.

Fixed Inductors Selection Notes

Select this component for designs requiring sub-2 nH inductance values where low parasitic capacitance is critical. The unshielded design may require careful placement to avoid magnetic coupling with nearby components. Evaluate the Q factor at the operating frequency to ensure sufficient efficiency for the intended RF application.

Fixed Inductors Part Context

This part belongs to the Murata LQW series of chip inductors, which are widely used in mobile and communication devices. The LQW04AN variant specifically targets ultra-small form factors, enabling miniaturization of RF front-end modules in compact electronic devices such as smartphones and IoT sensors.

Fixed Inductors Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other Murata LQW04AN parts with identical 1.8 nH inductance and 0.2 nH tolerance, such as LQW04AN1N8G00J if higher tolerance is acceptable. Verify that alternative manufacturers offer comparable self-resonant frequencies and current ratings for equivalent performance.
