Chip Inductors 0603HC (1608)
With their high current ratings and ultra-small size, these will handle transient currents up to 50% higher. At low
chip inductors are ideal for todays high frequency, low inductance values, their Q factors are also higher than
voltage applications like mobile phones. They feature our 0603CS Series.
