LQG15HH18NG02D - Murata Electronics

LQG15HH18NG02D Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the recommended land pattern for LQG15HH18NG02D?
  The recommended land pattern for LQG15HH18NG02D is a rectangular pad with a size of 1.5 mm x 1.5 mm, with a non-solder mask defined (NSMD) pad shape. The pad should be centered on the component and have a clearance of at least 0.2 mm from the component body.
• How do I handle the LQG15HH18NG02D inductor during reflow soldering?
  During reflow soldering, it's essential to ensure that the LQG15HH18NG02D inductor is not exposed to temperatures above 260°C for more than 30 seconds. It's also recommended to use a nitrogen atmosphere and a peak temperature of 240°C to minimize oxidation and ensure reliable soldering.
• What is the maximum current rating for LQG15HH18NG02D?
  The maximum current rating for LQG15HH18NG02D is 1.8 A, which is based on a temperature rise of 40°C. However, the actual current rating may vary depending on the operating frequency, temperature, and other environmental factors.
• Is the LQG15HH18NG02D inductor suitable for high-frequency applications?
  Yes, the LQG15HH18NG02D inductor is suitable for high-frequency applications up to 1 GHz. It has a low equivalent series resistance (ESR) and a high self-resonant frequency, making it suitable for high-frequency circuits such as RF filters, impedance matching networks, and power amplifiers.
• How do I store and handle LQG15HH18NG02D inductors to prevent damage?
  To prevent damage, LQG15HH18NG02D inductors should be stored in a dry, clean environment away from direct sunlight and moisture. They should be handled with care to avoid mechanical stress, and electrostatic discharge (ESD) precautions should be taken to prevent damage from static electricity.
