The Bourns CM16 series SMT Chip Inductors are designed for applications requiring high resistance to heat, humidity, and mechanical shock. These inductors feature alumina ceramic core material and copper coil construction, offering a wide inductance range and accurate dimensions for automatic surface mounting. They are RoHS compliant and suitable for various industrial applications where reliability and performance are critical. While currently available, Bourns does not recommend these for new designs, suggesting alternatives like CI100505, CI160808, CW100505, and CW160808.
