3339P-1-101LF - Bourns

3339P-1-101LF Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the recommended PCB layout and land pattern for the 3339P-1-101LF?
  Bourns provides a recommended PCB layout and land pattern in their application note AN164, which can be found on their website. It's essential to follow these guidelines to ensure proper mounting and to minimize parasitic inductance.
• How does the 3339P-1-101LF perform in high-temperature environments?
  While the datasheet specifies an operating temperature range of -40°C to +125°C, Bourns recommends derating the inductor's current rating for extended high-temperature operation. Consult Bourns' application note AN165 for guidance on high-temperature operation and derating.
• Is the 3339P-1-101LF suitable for use in high-reliability or safety-critical applications?
  The 3339P-1-101LF is a commercial-grade inductor, but Bourns offers a similar inductor, the 3339P-1-101LF-T, which is designed for high-reliability and safety-critical applications. The -T suffix indicates that the inductor meets stricter testing and inspection requirements.
• Can I use the 3339P-1-101LF in a design that requires AEC-Q200 qualification?
  While the 3339P-1-101LF is not AEC-Q200 qualified, Bourns offers a similar inductor, the 3339P-1-101LF-Q, which is designed to meet the AEC-Q200 standard for automotive applications.
• How do I handle the 3339P-1-101LF's magnetic field and potential EMI issues?
  To minimize EMI issues, ensure proper PCB layout, keep the inductor away from sensitive components, and consider using shielding or a mu-metal shield can. Bourns also provides guidance on magnetic field mitigation in their application note AN166.
