• Wireless communications systems
• Industrial connectivity interfaces

Fixed Inductors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'R' corresponds to the required reel packaging configuration when ordering. Confirm that the 150 mA current rating and 700 mOhm DCR meet the target circuit requirements. Ensure the 0805 (2012 metric) footprint aligns with the PCB layout specifications. Check for any updated RoHS compliance documentation prior to final procurement approval.

Fixed Inductors Selection Notes

Select this component for RF circuits requiring 820 nH inductance where unshielded performance is acceptable. The 100 MHz self-resonant frequency supports higher frequency operations compared to shielded alternatives. Consider the 150 mA current limit for power handling constraints. The AEC-Q200 rating makes it suitable for automotive-grade designs requiring standardized reliability testing.

Fixed Inductors Part Context

This part belongs to the MCLA series of automotive multilayer chip inductors by Eaton Electronics. The MCLA2012V1 variant specifically utilizes the 2012 (0805) package size. This series is engineered for high-reliability applications in industrial and consumer electronics, offering consistent performance across temperature variations and manufacturing processes.

Fixed Inductors Replacement Considerations

The MCQ1V2012-R820-R is a confirmed substitute with identical 820 nH inductance and 0805 footprint. Verify if the alternative's 150 mA rating and 700 mOhm DCR match the original specifications. Ensure the replacement maintains AEC-Q200 qualification if automotive usage is required.
