A thin electrically conductive wire wound into a conical coil 1 with leads from the small and large ends of the coil. The coil is filled with powdered iron 11, and is mounted in a thin-walled, completely non-conductive, leadless carrier 21 for ease of assembly onto a circuit board 15. The small end 4 of the coil is positioned precisely on a micro-strip 17 on the circuit board to provide maximum bandwidth. The coil is held by the carrier at an angle such that the large end of the coil is displaced from the circuit board by a distance D of at least half the radius of the large end of the coil. Attachment of the leads from the small and large ends of the coil to respective contacts on the circuit board is done with minimum lead length, minimum conductive material, and without the use of metallic pads on the carrier, to yield the highest possible frequency response. The coil geometry in combination with the unique characteristics of the carrier virtually eliminates electrical reflections and resonances to yield a broadband choke with exceptional frequency range from 300 kHz to 40 GHz.
