# Murata LQW18AN Wire-Wound RF Inductors (0603)

**Murata Electronics** · Wire-wound chip inductor, RF · 0603 (1608 metric)

Murata LQW18AN wire-wound chip inductors in 0603 for RF circuits: high Q and high self-resonant frequency in a ceramic-core winding. G = +/-2% tolerance, 00 = standard, D = paper tape reel.

**Part numbers:** every value's LCSC, Mouser and DigiKey number is in the table below ("not listed" means that distributor has no listing for it). The symbol, the 3D model and the sidebar show one of them, `LQW18AN56NG00D` (56 nH), the value used most on the AM/FM board. `murata-lqw18an-values.kicad_sym` has a symbol for every value with its part numbers as properties.

## Part numbers

Every row uses the same footprint, symbol and 3D model (same case size and land pattern). Values and ratings are from the LCSC parametric listing (2026-10-08); the linked datasheet is the source of truth.
