Frequently Asked Questions

What current and DCR ratings make LQW18AN68NG00D suitable for RF bias tee circuits?

The LQW18AN68NG00D supports a 340 mA DC current rating with a 0.38 Ω DC resistance. These parameters limit I²R dissipation to approximately 49 mW at full load, making the part suitable for bias tee and RF choke applications in low-power transmitter and receiver front ends.

How does the 68 nH inductance of LQW18AN68NG00D behave in a 2.4 GHz LC matching network?

At 2.4 GHz, a 68 nH inductor presents roughly 1 kΩ of inductive reactance, providing effective impedance transformation between antenna and PA stages. Combined with the Q factor of 38 and ±2% tolerance, this part enables repeatable filter center frequencies in Bluetooth and Wi-Fi front-end matching circuits.

Can LQW18AN68NG00D be placed on fine-pitch PCBs designed for 0402 inductors?

No, the LQW18AN68NG00D uses a 1608/0603 package measuring 1.6 mm × 0.8 mm, which is larger than an 0402 part at 1.0 mm × 0.5 mm. Designers needing the same 68 nH value in a smaller footprint should consider Murata's LQW15A or LQW15AN series for 0402 alternatives.
