CAPC-mount ferrite chip inductors stifle RF flow

By Bill Schweber -- EDN, 9/27/2005

Helping keep that pesky RF energy from propagating along signal lines where it doesn’t belong, the CB series of multilayer ferrite-bead chip inductors from Stackpole Electronics is available in 0402 through 1812 case sizes. Depending on model, impedance ranges from 6 to 2700Ω with 20 or 25% tolerance. The devices target use in applications requiring 1 MHz to several hundred megahertz. The dc resistance is 0.02 to 1.2Ω, and current rating are 50 mA to 6A for these passive components, whose prices start at 5 cents (volume quantities).
