New Surface Mount and Flying Lead Configurations Enhance Utility

Gowanda, NY (USA) – Gowanda Electronics a designer and manufacturer of precision electronic components for broadband radio frequency and power applications, announces an expansion of its broadband conical product line. The new broadband RF conical inductors – C102 & C182 – are available in Surface Mount (SM) and Flying Lead (FL) configurations to enhance utility in the electronics design community.

Gowanda’s new series were developed to address market needs and industry trends calling for ever-increasing performance from broadband conical components. They are designed for use in communication applications for bias T’s (filter signals, remove noise), broadband chip manufacturing, communication platforms, high frequency, microwave circuitry, RF test set-ups, test & measurement, test gear, test instrumentation and transmission amplifiers.

The performance ranges provided by these new wirewound conical series – C102FL, C102SM, C182FL and C182SM – include inductance from 0.47 µH to 10.7 µH, DCR ohms from 0.19 to 7.10 and current rating mA DC from 150 to 815. Series-specific data ranges are provided in the table below. A Conical Data Summary provides technical data for all the series in one pdf. All four series have been outgassing tested per ASTM E595 and meet the TML requirement of 1.0% max. Operating temperature range is -55°C to +125°C for all series. Terminations are gold and RoHS compliant. Please contact Gowanda for application-specific designs.

Gowanda, NY (USA) – Gowanda Electronics, a designer and manufacturer of precision electronic components for broadband radio frequency and power applications, announces the introduction of several High Performance RF Surface Mount Inductor Series. Recent advancements in the company’s design technology and manufacturing capability deliver significant improvement – nearly 2x or more – in SRF and Current Ratings for these new inductors as compared to traditional molded designs with equivalent inductance. The first six series – CC4H1008, CF4H1008, CC4H1210, CF4H1210, CC4H1812 and CF4H1812 – will be featured at the 2018 International Microwave Symposium (IMS2018) being held in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania from June 12 to 14. Visit Gowanda’s booth #1735 for more information.

These series were developed to address market needs and industry trends calling for ever-increasing performance from RF SMT inductor components. These CC4H (ceramic core) and CF4H (ferrite core) series were designed for use in radio frequency applications in commercial, medical and military markets. That includes use in communication, guidance, security, radar, and test & measurement applications.

The performance ranges provided by these six new wirewound series include inductance from 0.0082 µH to 1000 µH, Q min from 30 to 75, SRF MHz min from 2 to 4000, DCR ohms max from 0.060 to 30 and current rating mA DC from 96 to 2430. Series-specific data ranges are provided in the table below. Operating temperature range is -55°C to +125°C for all series. More technical information is available on each series at the company’s website.

Shielded Surface Mount RF Inductors with Higher Inductance

admin — Thu, 15 Feb 2018 17:32:02 +0000

Gowanda expanded its SML32S “1210” Shielded Series, increasing the number of parts by 20% and raising the upper level of inductance to 470 uH.

Gowanda, NY (USA) – Gowanda Electronics, a designer and manufacturer of precision electronic components for radio frequency and power applications, announces the expansion of its SML32S series of wirewound, shielded, molded RF surface mount inductors in the “1210” style. This expansion increases the number of individual parts in the series by more than 20% and broadens the inductance range by adding values from 120 to 470 uH.

The expansion was done in order to address the market need for higher inductance shielded inductors in RF applications. Shielded inductors are used specifically in applications where the close proximity of circuit board components requires the inductor to be shielded to minimize interactions and ensure performance of the overall system. Such inductors are used for radio frequency applications in commercial, medical and military communities. That includes use in communication, guidance, security, radar, and test & evaluation applications.

The performance range provided by the expanded SML32S series includes inductance from 0.1 uH to 470 uH, DCR ohms max from 0.15 to 25 and current rating mA DC from 91 to 1175. There are two core types in the series (powdered iron or ferrite). The series operating temperature range is -55°C to +125°C. See table. Links to series information, series datasheet and other helpful information are provided below.

First in Industry – RF Surface Mount Inductors with Established Reliability

admin — Mon, 03 Apr 2017 17:34:08 +0000

Gowanda, NY (USA) – Gowanda Electronics, a designer and manufacturer of precision electronic components for radio frequency and power applications, announces the introduction of the industry’s first off-the-shelf RF Surface Mount (SMT) Inductors with Established Reliability (ER) rating. The first-ever ER SMT series – Gowanda ER3013 – was developed by Gowanda in response to a market need for surface mount options to the traditional leaded (thru-hole) designs.

Surface mount configurations lend themselves to higher-efficiency “pick and place” circuit board assembly processes versus the more laborious, multi-step thru-hole assembly methods. The introduction of Gowanda’s ER SMT series will enable faster assembly processing, thereby helping to reduce the cost of high-reliability electronic systems where ER components are utilized. The introduction of this new series also sends a message to the design community – that SMT designs are attainable even for some of the most challenging high-reliability components.

“This development from Gowanda not only breaks new ground but also helps to assure design engineers that their next generation designs will have access to the necessary components – especially since Gowanda plans to introduce more ER SMT designs in the future,” said Don McElheny, CEO of Gowanda Components Group.

The ER3013 series meets the military’s Qualified Products List (QPL) requirements for Established Reliability to failure rate level M and addresses MIL-PRF-39010 slash numbers /19, /20 and /21. This qualification required extensive testing for electrical, environmental, mechanical and thermal performance. Level M represents the first level of failure rating for off-the-shelf inductors for high-reliability applications. In its ongoing commitment to the military market, Gowanda intends to achieve higher level failure ratings (Level P, then Level R) as ongoing testing continues to accumulate the hours necessary to attain those ratings on this ER SMT series.

Gowanda’s wirewound, molded ER3013 series is designed for RF applications in military, aerospace and space – including defense and NASA communities – for use in communication, guidance, security, radar, test & evaluation and special mission applications.

The performance range provided by the ER3013 series includes inductance from 0.10 to 1000 µH, Q min from 25 to 55, SRF MHz min from 3.4 to 680, DCR Ohms max from 0.08 to 72, and current rating mA DC from 28 to 1380. The specific MIL-PRF-39010 slash number determines the core type (phenolic, powdered iron or ferrite) and operating temperature range (-55°C to +105°C or -55°C to +125°C). See table.
