Gowanda Electronics (Gowanda, NY) announced the introduction of a new series of vertical surface-mount toroidal inductors that optimize board real estate in RF applications. The SMRF 2007 Series utilizes a unique housing, developed by the company, which allows the inductor to be mounted vertically, taking up less board space than other designs on the market, according to the company.
The SMRF 2007 inductor series delivers performance in a space-saving, pick-and-place, vertical-mount package that minimizes external magnetic fields. These inductors are used as signal filter components in RF circuit designs. Applications for the SMRF 2007 inductors include all RF signal circuitry in communications equipment, test and measurement equipment, medical diagnostic equipment, and industrial process-control equipment. Technical specifications for the products in the series include an inductance from 0.10µH to 47µH, current ratings from 575mA to 3,100mA, and a saturation current up to 4,500mA.
Pricing for the SMRF Series is less than $1 each in production quantities.
