S1008R-681K - API Delevan

S1008R-681K Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the recommended PCB land pattern for the S1008R-681K?
  The recommended PCB land pattern for the S1008R-681K can be found in the API Delevan application note AN-013, which provides detailed guidelines for PCB layout and design.
• How does the S1008R-681K perform in high-temperature environments?
  While the datasheet specifies an operating temperature range of -40°C to +125°C, API Delevan recommends derating the inductor's current rating by 1.5% per degree Celsius above 80°C to ensure reliable operation in high-temperature environments.
• Can the S1008R-681K be used in high-frequency applications?
  Yes, the S1008R-681K is suitable for high-frequency applications up to 1 GHz. However, it's essential to consider the inductor's self-resonant frequency (SRF) and ensure that the operating frequency is below the SRF to avoid unwanted resonances.
• What is the recommended storage and handling procedure for the S1008R-681K?
  API Delevan recommends storing the S1008R-681K in a dry, cool place, away from direct sunlight and moisture. Handling should be done with electrostatic discharge (ESD) precautions, such as using ESD-safe gloves and wrist straps, to prevent damage to the component.
• Is the S1008R-681K compatible with lead-free soldering processes?
  Yes, the S1008R-681K is compatible with lead-free soldering processes, such as SAC305 (Sn-Ag-Cu) and is RoHS compliant.
