10 µH wirewound — 245 mA current rating and 820 mOhm DCR
The LBC2016T100K is a 10 µH ±10% wirewound inductor from Taiyo Yuden's LB, C Type series, rated for 245 mA continuous current with a DC resistance of 820 mOhm. The 820 mOhm DCR at 245 mA produces a DC power loss of roughly 49 mW (I²R) — this is the self-heating floor under steady-state load, so the temperature rise above ambient depends on the PCB copper area and airflow around the 0806 package.
0806 footprint, unshielded — layout and frequency limits
Unshielded construction means the magnetic field radiates — adjacent traces carrying sensitive analog signals or high-speed digital lines should be spaced at least one package width away to avoid coupling. The self-resonant frequency is 32 MHz, tested at 2.52 MHz; above this frequency the inductor behaves capacitively, so the useful filtering range stops well below 32 MHz.
