WL05GT6N8

Fixed Inductors Overview

The WL05GT6N8 is a fixed wirewound chip inductor manufactured by Viking Tech Corp, designed for surface-mount applications. It features an unshielded drum core construction with a ceramic body, providing high self-resonant frequencies suitable for RF circuits. The component has a nominal inductance of 6.8 nH (0.0068 µH) and a tolerance of ±2%. It operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +125°C and supports peak reflow soldering temperatures around 260°C. The package dimensions are 2.0 mm length, 1.25 mm width, and 1.02 mm height, corresponding to the 0805 (2012 Metric) EIA standard.

Fixed Inductors Feature Summary

• Wirewound construction on a ceramic core ensures high self-resonant frequency performance.
• Unshielded design facilitates use in RF oscillation and IF choke circuits.
• Capable of handling large current applications such as Power Amplifiers (PA) and Low Noise Amplifiers (LNA).
• RoHS3 compliant and lead-free compatible for modern manufacturing processes.

Fixed Inductors Applications

• RF Oscillation circuits
• IF choke applications
• Power Amplifier (PA) circuits
• Low Noise Amplifier (LNA) circuits

Fixed Inductors Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific order suffix matches the required tolerance code, as the base part number may correspond to different precision variants. Confirm RoHS3 compliance status if environmental regulations require strict adherence beyond standard lead-free specifications. Ensure the supplier provides documentation confirming the ceramic core construction and wirewound type to distinguish from shielded or air-core alternatives.

Fixed Inductors Selection Notes

Select this component when high Q characteristics and large current handling are required in a compact 0805 footprint. The unshielded nature makes it ideal for RF applications where self-resonant frequency is critical. Consider the 6.8 nH value for high-frequency signal paths. Verify thermal limits against the operating environment, as the maximum junction temperature is specified at 125°C.

Fixed Inductors Part Context

This inductor belongs to the Viking Tech WL series of wirewound chip inductors. The series utilizes a ceramic body and wirewound technique to achieve superior RF performance compared to standard ferrite core inductors. The WL05GT6N8 specifically targets the 0805 size category, offering a balance between current capacity and miniaturization for mobile and communication devices.

Fixed Inductors Replacement Considerations

Public confirmed substitute part numbers are not available in the provided documentation. Cross-referencing requires matching inductance (6.8 nH), tolerance (±2%), DC resistance, and current rating specifications.
