Hammond 1530B276 2.7uH Sub-Miniature RF Choke, 1091 mA Iron Core

The 1530B276 is a sub-miniature R.F. choke from the Hammond 1530 Series, rated at 2.7 uH with an inductance tolerance of +/- 10%. It is a low-inductance coil for engineers and OEM designers who need a compact inductor for network, filter and delay line circuits, the applications the 1530 Series is intended for.

Performance is specified with L and Q values measured on a Q meter. This part is rated for a minimum Q of 34 at a test frequency of 7.9 MHz, with a minimum Fo of 74 MHz. Maximum DC resistance is 0.168 ohms and the maximum DC current is 1091 mA, so it can carry more than an amp of DC bias while choking RF.

Construction is a varnish-impregnated coil wound over an iron core. The 1530B276 has a form length of 0.25 in (6 mm) (tolerance +/- 0.03 in) and a maximum coil diameter rating of 0.16, keeping it within the series' subminiature size range of .25" to .63". Shipping weight is 0.1 lbs (0.05 kg).

Key ratings at a glance:

• Inductance: 2.7 uH, +/- 10%
• Q minimum: 34 at 7.9 MHz
• Fo minimum: 74 MHz
• DC resistance maximum: 0.168 ohms
• DC current maximum: 1091 mA

The 1530B276 is listed as RoHS compliant and REACH compliant, and carries UPC 623980292113 and UNSPSC code 39121301. Hammond notes that the 1530 Series will soon be discontinued as a stocked series and is available while quantities last.
