ZCAT2132-1130-BKJ

Overview

The TDK ZCAT2132-1130-BKJ is a hinged ferrite core clamp from the ZCAT series, designed for cable noise suppression. It features an internal diameter of 11 mm and external dimensions of 20.5 mm x 36 mm. The component utilizes Ferrite material (Material 30) to provide impedance values of 40 Ω at 25 MHz, 40 Ω at 50 MHz, 80 Ω at 100 MHz, 80 Ω at 300 MHz, and 80 Ω at 500 MHz. It operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.

Feature Summary

• Hinged design with self-holding mechanism for convenient installation on existing cables without disconnection.

Applications

• Cable noise suppression
• EMI reduction

Procurement Notes

Verify the exact suffix designation when ordering, as variations such as BK or BKJ may exist in distributor catalogs. Confirm RoHS compliance status through official datasheets. Ensure the selected part matches the required impedance profile for the specific frequency band of application. Cross-reference manufacturer part numbers directly to avoid substitution errors.

Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring post-installation filtering on cables up to 11 mm in diameter. The hinged construction allows for rapid deployment on assembled wiring harnesses. Consider the impedance characteristics across the 25 MHz to 500 MHz range to ensure effective attenuation of high-frequency interference in sensitive electronic systems.

Part Context

This component belongs to the TDK ZCAT series of cable ferrites. These cores are engineered for electromagnetic interference suppression in various electronic assemblies. The ZCAT line provides versatile solutions for managing conducted emissions on power and signal lines using snap-together magnetic materials.

Replacement Considerations

Public sources indicate that the ZCAT2132-1130-BKJ variant is classified as obsolete and no longer in active production. Users should consult current TDK product portfolios for available alternatives or updated series replacements.
