Datasheet

Do not use products beyond the rated current as
this may create excessive heat.
● Rating
● Storage and Operating Condition
<Operating Environment>
Do not use products in chemical atmosphere such as
chlorine gas, acid or sulfide gas.
<Storage Requirements>
1. Storage Period
LQG series should be used within 6 months; the
other products should be used within 12 months.
Check solderability if this period is exceeded.
2. Storage Conditions
(1) Store products in a warehouse in compliance with
the following conditions:
Temperature: -10 to +40 degrees C.
Humidity: 15 to 85% (relative humidity)
Do not subject products to rapid changes in
temperature and humidity.
Do not store them in chemical atmosphere such
as one containing sulfurous acid gas or alkaline
gas.
This will prevent electrode oxidation which causes
poor solderability and possible corrosion of
inductors.
(2) Do not store products in bulk packaging to
prevent collision among inductors which causes
core chipping and wire breakage.
(3) Store products on pallets to protect from humidity,
dust, etc.
(4) Avoid heat shock, vibration, direct sunlight, etc.
● Handling
This item is designed to have sufficient strength, but
handle with care to avoid chipping or breaking its
ceramic structure.
LQW_A/LQW_H series
• To prevent breaking the wire, avoid touching with
sharp material, such as tweezers or other material
such as bristles of cleaning brush, to the wire
wound portion.
• To prevent breaking the core, avoid applying
excessive mechanical shock to products mounted
on the board.
• In some mounting machines, when picking up
components, support pin pushes up the
components from the bottom of base tape. In this
case, please remove the support pin. The support
pin may damage the components and break wire.
• In rare case, the laser recognition can not
recognize this component. Please contact us when
you use laser recognizion. (There is no problem
with the permeation and reflection type.)
LQH_H series
• To prevent breaking the wire, avoid touching with
sharp material, such as tweezers or other material
such as bristles of cleaning brush, to the wire
wound portion of this product.
• To prevent breaking the core, avoid applying
excessive mechanical shock to products mounted
on the board.
LQG,LQP series (exept LQP02T_02/LQP03T_02)
• The pattern of the chip inductor is covered with
protective film. Take care to avoid damaging the
chip inductor when handling it with pick-up nozzles,
sharp instruments, etc.
<Handling>
1. Avoid applying excessive stress to products to
prevent damage.
2. Do not touch wire wound with sharp objects such
as tweezers to prevent wire breakage.
3. Do not apply excessive force to products mounted
on boards to prevent core breakage.
<Transportation>
Do not apply excessive vibration or mechanical shock
to products.
<Resin Coating>
When coating products with resin, the relatively high
resin curing stress may change inductance values.
For exterior coating, select resin carefully so that
electrical and mechanical performance of the product
is not affected. Prior to use, please evaluate reliability
with the product mounted in your application set.
(LQW,LQH series)
An open circuit issue may occur by mechanical stress
caused by the resin, amount/cured shape of resin, or
operating condition etc. Some resins containing
impurities or chloride may possibly generate chlorine
by hydrolysis under some operating condition may
cause corrosion of wire of inductor, leading to open
circuit.
(LQP02T_02,LQP03T_02)
When products are coated with resin, please contact
us in advance.

<Handling of a Substrate>
After mounting products on a substrate, do not apply
any stress to the product caused by bending or
twisting to the substrate when cropping the substrate,
inserting and removing a connector from the substrate
or tightening screw to the substrate.
Excessive mechanical stress may cause cracking in
the Product.
