820 µH wirewound for low-current filtering and bias-T circuits
The Murata LQH43MN821J03L is a drum-core wirewound inductor in the LQH43 series, delivering 820 µH inductance in a standard 1812 (4532 Metric) surface-mount package. Rated at 60 mA with a maximum DC resistance of 20.5 Ohms, this part suits low-current power supply filtering, bias-T networks, and noise suppression where the DC bias stays under 60 mA.
Unshielded construction and self-resonant frequency
This inductor is unshielded, meaning the magnetic field radiates from the drum core — keep it spaced from sensitive analog traces or adjacent magnetics to avoid coupling. The self-resonant frequency is 2.2 MHz; above that the impedance turns capacitive, so the part is best used well below that frequency for inductive filtering. Q factor is 40 at 796 kHz, giving moderate efficiency in the low-MHz range. The ferrite core material handles the 820 µH value with a ±5% tolerance, tested at 1 kHz.
