1. When ordering, specify tolerance, termination and packaging codes:
1606-10GLC
Tolerance: F = 1% G = 2% J = 5% K = 10% (Table shows stock
tolerances in bold.)
Termination: L = RoHS compliant tin-silver (96.5/3.5) over copper.
Special order: T = RoHS tin-silver-copper
(95.5/4/0.5) or S = non-RoHS tin-lead (63/37).
Packaging: C = 7 machine-ready reel. EIA-481 embossed plastic
tape, 500 parts per full reel.
B = Less than full reel. In tape, but not machine-ready.
To have a leader and trailer added ($25 charge), use
code letter C instead.
2. Inductance measured at 800 MHz using Agilent/HP 4286 or equivalent
with a Coilcraft SMD-A fixture and correlation.
3. Tolerances in bold are stocked for immediate shipment.
4. Q measured at 800 MHz using an Agilent/HP 4291A with an Agilent/
HP 16193A test fixture or equivalents.
5. SRF measured using an Agilent/HP 8720D or equivalent with a Coilcraft
SMD-D fixture.
6. DCR tested on the Cambridge Technology Model 510 Micro-ohmmeter
or equivalent.
7. Current that causes a 15°C temperature rise from 25°C ambient.
8. Electrical specifications at 25°C.
Refer to Doc 362 “Soldering Surface Mount Components” before soldering.
Terminations RoHS compliant tin-silver over copper Other termina-
tions available at additional cost.
Weight 0906: 10 – 12 mg; 1606: 18 – 27 mg
Ambient temperature –40°C to +125°C with Irms current, +125°C
to +140°C with derated current
Storage temperature Component: –40°C to +140°C.
Tape and reel packaging: –40°C to +80°C
Resistance to soldering heat Max three 40 second reflows at
+260°C, parts cooled to room temperature between cycles
Temperature Coefficient of Inductance (TCL) +5 to +70 ppm/°C
Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) 1 (unlimited floor life at <30°C /
85% relative humidity)
Failures in Time (FIT) / Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF)
One per billion hours / one billion hours, calculated per Telcordia SR-332
Packaging 0906: 500 per 7 reel Plastic tape: 8 mm wide,
0.3 mm thick, 4 mm pocket spacing, 1.5 mm pocket depth
1606: 500 per 7 reel Plastic tape: 12 mm wide, 0.3 mm thick,
4 mm pocket spacing, 1.6 mm pocket depth
PCB washing Tested with pure water or alcohol only. For other solvents,
see Doc787_PCB_Washing.pdf.
• Small air core inductors feature high Q and tight tolerances
• Acrylic jacket provides a flat top for pick and place
