Pulse Electronics Corporation has extended its product line by adding a new line of high frequency multilayer ceramic chip inductors. These RF ceramic inductors have low DC resistance, high Q values at higher frequencies, high self-resonant frequency, and high reliability. The inductors can be used in wireless devices, broadband circuits, RFID devices, RF transceivers, modules, and medical devices.
They are available in standard surface mount footprints and are made of a monolithic non-organic substance that gives them a tighter tolerance and lower value of inductance in a small size compared to traditional wire-wound inductors. Their high Q value provides consistent, stable signal transmission at high frequencies.
The new multilayer chip inductors consist of the:
0201CC (1.0 to 100nH) value series with a low DCR and high Q
0402CC (1.0 to 270 nH) value series with a low DCR and high Q
0402CH (1.0 to 15 nH) value series with a very high Q
These multilayer inductors are RoHS compliant and are sold in tape and reel. Samples are now available. Delivery is 4-6 weeks.
