Chip Inductors Lay Low

The PM1210G and PM1812G series RoHS-compliant, surface-mount, multilayer chip inductors consume little board space with profiles of 3.2 mm x 2.5 mm x 1.3 mm and 4.5 mm x 3.2 mm x 1.5 mm, respectively. Depending on the model, inductance values range from 0.1 µH to 33 µH. All components in the series specify a dc- current rating of 800 mA and an operating temperature range from –25ºC to +125ºC. They employ a monolithic construction consisting of ferrite material that keeps radiation to a minimum. Additionally, the inductors are said to exhibit high Q characteristics. Available on tape-and-reel in quantities of 2,500/reel (PM1210G) and 1,000/reel (PM1812G), pricing is from $0.078 to $0.095 each in minimum production quantities with delivery times from four to six weeks.
