Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix or tape-and-reel quantity requirements against the manufacturer's official ordering guide. Confirm that the 0804 footprint dimensions align with your PCB layout constraints. Ensure the 6.3V rating and 100mA current limits are sufficient for your target circuit conditions before finalizing procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when designing compact mobile devices requiring multi-channel EMI filtering on data lines. The 15pF capacitance value is suitable for high-speed signals where minimal loading is required. Consider the 240 MHz cutoff frequency to ensure compatibility with your specific data transmission rates and noise profiles.
