Frequently Asked Questions
What is the inductance value and tolerance of the LQW18AN56NG00D?
The LQW18AN56NG00D has a nominal inductance of 56 nH (0.056 µH) with a tight ±2% tolerance. This narrow tolerance band ensures consistent filter center frequencies and impedance matching across production volumes, making it suitable for precision RF applications where component variation directly impacts insertion loss and return loss in bandpass filter designs.
What DC current rating and DC resistance does the LQW18AN56NG00D carry?
The LQW18AN56NG00D is rated for 360 mA maximum DC current with a DC resistance (DCR) of 0.35 Ω. At full 360 mA bias, the resistive power dissipation is approximately 45 mW, which is within the thermal budget of a 0603 package in typical free-air conditions. The low DCR helps minimize signal path loss in RF bias choke and power-delivery applications.
Which wireless frequency bands benefit most from the 56 nH LQW18AN56NG00D inductor?
At 56 nH inductance, the LQW18AN56NG00D is most effective in frequency bands from approximately 100 MHz to 2.4 GHz, covering sub-GHz ISM bands at 433 MHz and 868/915 MHz as well as 2.4 GHz Bluetooth and Wi-Fi. Its Q factor of 38 provides adequate energy storage efficiency for LC matching networks and bias chokes across these common IoT and wireless communication standards.
How does the 0603 package size of LQW18AN56NG00D compare to larger RF inductor alternatives?
The 0603 (1608 metric, 1.6 mm x 0.8 mm) package occupies roughly 1.28 mm² of PCB footprint, which is half the board area of a 0805 (2012 metric) equivalent. For dense RF module PCBs where component spacing must be less than 0.5 mm, the 0603 form factor enables tighter placement near antenna feed points and RF switch ICs compared to larger 1210 or 0805 inductors.
