Procurement Notes

Verify the specific part number RT8532-8-4M8 against official TE Connectivity or Schaffner documentation to confirm electrical ratings and mechanical dimensions. Ensure compatibility with your PCB layout regarding through-hole spacing and vertical clearance requirements. Cross-reference manufacturer datasheets for any recent updates to RoHS compliance status or pinout configurations before finalizing procurement orders.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a vertical, three-line common mode choke is required for applications handling up to 8 A DC current. The 4.8 mH inductance at 100 kHz makes it suitable for filtering high-frequency noise in power lines. Consider the 17 mOhm DCR for efficiency calculations and ensure the 63 mm height fits within the enclosure constraints. Verify that the nanocrystalline core material meets the thermal and magnetic performance needs of the specific power supply topology.

Part Context

This component belongs to the RT-Series of common mode chokes from TE Connectivity / Schaffner. These devices are designed for electromagnetic interference (EMI) suppression in power electronics. The RT8532 series specifically targets vertical mounting applications, offering a compact footprint compared to horizontal alternatives while maintaining robust filtering capabilities for industrial and automotive power systems.

Replacement Considerations

Consult official substitution lists from TE Connectivity / Schaffner for verified equivalents. Ensure any replacement maintains the same 4.8 mH inductance, 8 A current rating, and vertical three-line form factor. Verify that alternative components meet the same -40°C to +125°C operating temperature range and through-hole mounting specifications.
