MEA1608L50R0TA0G

Overview

The MEA1608L50R0TA0G is a surface-mount EMI filter circuit manufactured by TDK Corporation. It features an L-filter topology with a cutoff frequency of 50 MHz and a capacitance of 50 pF. The component operates within a voltage range of 6.3 V and supports a current rating of 100 mA. Designed for the 0603 (1608 metric) package, it functions reliably between -40°C and +85°C.

Feature Summary

• Provides signal line filtering using LC technology
• Designed for compact surface-mount integration
• Offers low-pass attenuation characteristics

Applications

• Mobile device data lines
• General purpose power line filtering
• Embedded system signal protection

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix TA0G to confirm reel packaging configuration. Ensure compatibility with 0603 footprint requirements during PCB layout. Confirm RoHS compliance status if required by project specifications. Check for obsolescence notices as some distributors list this part as not recommended for new designs.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 50 MHz cutoff frequency is required for noise suppression in tight spaces. The 100 mA rating suits low-power data lines. Compare against other MEA series variants if different capacitance values or higher current handling are needed. Ensure the 6.3 V rating meets the circuit's operational voltage limits.

Part Context

This part belongs to the TDK MEA-L series of EMI filter arrays. These components are engineered for high-density electronics where space is limited. The 0603 package allows for automated assembly processes common in consumer electronics manufacturing.

Replacement Considerations

Consult official TDK documentation for direct substitutes. Verify that any alternative maintains the same 0603 footprint and electrical ratings to ensure mechanical and functional compatibility without redesigning the board.
