164-11A06L - COILCRAFT

164-11A06L Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the recommended land pattern for the 164-11A06L?
  Coilcraft provides a recommended land pattern for the 164-11A06L in their documentation, which includes a suggested pad layout and dimensions to ensure proper mounting and soldering of the inductor.
• How does the 164-11A06L perform in high-temperature environments?
  While the datasheet provides temperature ratings, engineers may want to know how the inductor performs in extreme temperatures. Coilcraft's inductors are designed to operate up to 125°C, but derating may be necessary for higher temperatures. It's recommended to consult with Coilcraft's application engineers for specific guidance.
• Can the 164-11A06L be used in high-frequency applications?
  Yes, the 164-11A06L is designed for high-frequency applications, with a recommended operating frequency range of up to 1 GHz. However, engineers should consider the inductor's self-resonant frequency (SRF) and ensure it does not interfere with their application's frequency range.
• What is the moisture sensitivity level (MSL) of the 164-11A06L?
  The 164-11A06L has an MSL rating of 1, which means it can withstand normal humidity and temperature conditions without special handling or storage requirements.
• Are there any specific soldering or assembly recommendations for the 164-11A06L?
  Yes, Coilcraft recommends using a soldering profile with a peak temperature of 260°C and a dwell time of 10-15 seconds to ensure reliable solder joints. Additionally, engineers should follow standard assembly practices to prevent mechanical stress and ensure proper orientation of the inductor.
