AVX Air Core RF Inductors, part of the wound air core inductor family, are

ideal for RF circuits, broadband I/O filtering,

frequency selection, or

impedance matching. The air core inductor provides better performance

over solid core inductors with higher Q, and better current handling

capabilities.
