15 µH at 170 mA — the DC bias ceiling for this footprint
The LQH32MN150J23L is a drum core wirewound inductor from Murata's LQH32 series, rated for 15 µH at 170 mA with a ±5% tolerance. Unshielded construction means the flux field extends beyond the component body — adjacent traces carrying high-frequency signals or sensitive analog lines need a keep-out zone roughly one part-width from the inductor. The self-resonant frequency of 16 MHz is the upper bound for useful inductance; above that the component behaves capacitively.
1210 footprint, tape-and-reel supply
The nonstandard case designation means the pad layout should follow the manufacturer's recommended land pattern rather than a generic 1210 footprint. Supplied on tape and reel with cut-tape option for prototyping. The Q factor of 35 at 1 MHz indicates moderate AC losses — adequate for power supply filtering and DC-DC converter input/output stages where the ripple frequency stays below 10 MHz.
