ZCAT4625-3430DT

Overview

The ZCAT4625-3430DT is a ferrite clamp-on core designed for flat ribbon cables, manufactured by TDK Corporation. It features a unique plastic case with a self-holding mechanism to prevent slippage during installation. The component measures 45.5mm in external length, 24.5mm in external width, and 13mm in external height, with an internal length of 34mm. It operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C and provides an impedance of 35Ω at frequencies between 50MHz and 500MHz.

Feature Summary

• Integrates ferrite core into a unique plastic case for simple and convenient installation
• Includes a self-holding mechanism to prevent slippage on the cable
• Specifically engineered for use with 26-wire flat ribbon cables

Applications

• Electromagnetic interference suppression for 26-wire flat ribbon cables
• Signal integrity enhancement in high-frequency data transmission lines

Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific part number matches the required impedance characteristics and physical dimensions for your application. Confirm that the operating temperature range aligns with your environmental conditions. Ensure the component is suitable for the specific flat cable thickness and wire count intended for use. Check for any RoHS or halogen-free compliance requirements relevant to your manufacturing process.

Selection Notes

Select this component when dealing with 26-wire flat ribbon cables requiring EMI suppression in the 50MHz to 500MHz range. Consider the physical constraints of the 45.5mm x 24.5mm footprint. Evaluate the need for a self-holding mechanism versus other mounting methods. Compare impedance values against other series options if different frequency attenuation profiles are needed.
