NEW THIN FILM CHIP INDUCTORS IN COMPACT 0402 AND 0603 CASES
Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. today announced the release of two new thin film chip inductors in compact 0402 and 0603 case sizes that provide high Q values up to 49 at specified frequencies from 100 MHz to 1700 MHz. The new Vishay Dale IFCB-0402 and IFCB-0603 are designed to provide stable inductance during high-frequency operation in communications devices such as cell phones, pagers, GPS devices, and wireless LANs, as well as for VCO, TCXO circuit, and RF transceiver modules. The IFCB-0402 provides inductance values ranging from 1.0 nH to 22 nH, while the IFCB-0603 is available in a range of values between 1.0 nH and 68 nH. Both inductors feature inductance tolerance of 0.3 nH from 1.0 nH to 8.2 nH, with 2% and 5% tolerances available. With dimensions of 0.039 in. by 0.02 in. [1.0 mm by 0.5 mm] and 0.063 in. by 0.031 in. [1.60 mm by 0.80 mm] and height profiles of 0.013 in. [0.32 mm] and 0.018 in. [0.45 mm], respectively, the lightweight IFCB-0402 and IFCB-0603 allow for design of smaller end products for communications markets. They feature a lead (Pb)-free and RoHS-compliant construction and are compatible with reflow or flow soldering. The inductors are rated for operation over a temperature range of −40 °C to +125 °C with no load and for −40 °C to +80 °C at full rated current, which at 1.0 nH reaches 700 mA for the IFCB-0402 and 800 mA for the IFCB-0603. Samples and production quantities of the new inductors are available now. Lead time for production quantities is six to eight weeks.
