It is time once again for us to meet. And as always in these meetings, conducted via the Proactive Components, Inc. blog, we are about to profile some of the most important electronic components from our inventory.

Part number BCM5461SA1KPFG is a copper transceiver manufactured by Broadcom Corporation. Broadcom is a fabless semiconductor manufacturer. The company’s semiconductor components have extensive applications in wireless and broadband communication fields. Additionally, Broadband manufactured cabling components, IPTV solutions, VoIP solutions, multimedia processors and several more.

Specifically, part number BCM5461SA1KPFG is a 10/100/1000 Base-T Gigabit copper transceiver. A transceiver is an electronic component that incorporates both transmission and receiving capability on a single circuitry. Wireless communication devices such as mobile phones, two-way radios are transceivers.

Part number BCM5461SA1KPFG offers line side copper and fiber interfaces, and hence can be used for both copper and fiber applications. It has on-chip low voltage regulators resulting in lowered BOM cost and simplified overall system design. This is a low power component, consuming less than 700mW per watt. So there is no need for additional equipment like air flow or heat sink. Overall system cost further reduces.  The component has high CESD tolerance, which prevents equipment damage and return.

Part number FME0H473ZFTP18 is a capacitor manufactured by NEC-Tokin Corporation. Established in 1938, NEC-Tokin is a Japanese electronics company specializing in the manufacture of capacitors. The company’s product range also includes IC cards, piezoelectric devices, crystals, sensors and electromagnetic components.

Part number FME0H473ZFTP18 is an electric double layer capacitor with 5.5V voltage rating and 47000uF capacitance. This is an RoHS compliant component and needed to mounted via through hole technology.

Electric double layer capacitors like part number FME0H473ZFTP18 are also called super capacitors. They do not posses a conventional dielectric. The capacitor structure comprises an electrolyte (solid or liquid) placed between the 2 electrodes. So an electrical double layer is formed between the electrolyte and the electrodes, which serves as the dielectric.

Part number FME0H473ZFTP16 is an almost identical electrical double layer capacitor from NEC Tokin. It shares several specifications with part number FME0H473ZFTP18 and differs slightly in some areas. Both components are RoHS free.

Proactive Components INC. has ready to supply inventory levels of part number FME0H473ZFTP16 and well as part number FME0H473ZFTP18. Simply request a quote for the component you need and await our super quick response with all details.
