LTF0402BT1N5

Fixed Inductors Overview

The LTF0402BT1N5 is a fixed thin film inductor manufactured by Stackpole Electronics Inc. It features an inductance of 1.5 nH with a tolerance of ±0.1%. The component has a maximum DC resistance of 250 milliohms and a rated current of 700 mA. It utilizes a ceramic core and is housed in a 0402 (1005 metric) surface mount package measuring 1.00 mm x 0.50 mm x 0.61 mm. The device operates within a temperature range of -55°C to 125°C.

Fixed Inductors Feature Summary

• Thin film construction for high precision
• Ultra-low inductance value
• High stability over time

Fixed Inductors Applications

• RF circuit matching networks
• Impedance matching applications
• High-frequency signal processing

Fixed Inductors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific tolerance requirement, as the model indicates ±0.1% which is distinct from standard ±5% or ±2% variants. Confirm that the 1.5 nH inductance aligns with the target RF frequency response. Ensure the 700 mA current rating meets the operational load without saturation. Check for RoHS compliance documentation if required by the assembly process.

Fixed Inductors Selection Notes

Select this component when ultra-precise low inductance is critical for RF performance. The thin film technology offers superior stability compared to thick film alternatives. Consider the small 0402 footprint for space-constrained designs. Evaluate the 250 milliohm DCR impact on circuit efficiency at the intended operating current.
