Gowanda Electronics, a designer and manufacturer of precision electronic components for broadband radio frequency (RF) and power applications, has introduced a new broadband microwave RF conical inductor series — C070 — available in surface mount (C070SM) and flying lead (C070FL) configurations to enhance utility for the electronic design community.
The C070 series was developed to address market needs and industry trends calling for ever-increasing performance from broadband conical components. It was designed for use in communication applications for

The series offers robust construction to ensure predictable frequency response and repeatable RF performance. The unique broadband response of the coil is attributed to its precision winding, wire selection and coil configuration.
The performance range provided by the C070 series includes inductance from 0.165 µH to 1.050 µH, DC resistance ohms from 0.08 to 1.50 and current rating mA DC from 150 to 625. The series has been outgassing tested per ASTM E595 and meets the total mass loss requirement of 1.0% max. Operating temperature range is -55° C to 125° C. Terminations are gold and RoHS compliant. The C070FL coil measures just 0.07 inches in length; the C070SM version is slightly longer overall, due to its surface mount technology design.
