Inductors

Key Features

• Superior EMI Suppression: Effectively blocks high-frequency noise from entering sensitive circuits.
• Efficient Energy Storage: Ideal for switching power supplies to maintain steady voltage output.
• High Saturation Current: Designed to handle significant current loads without losing magnetic efficiency.
• Low DC Resistance (DCR): Minimizes power loss and heat generation for improved battery life in portable devices.
• Durable Construction: Available in shielded versions to prevent magnetic interference with neighboring components.

Common Applications

• DC-DC Converters: Essential components in Buck, Boost, and SEPIC converters for stepping voltage up or down.
• Power Supply Filtering: Removing “ripple” and high-frequency switching noise from power lines.
• Audio Cross-overs: Filtering frequencies in speaker systems to separate bass, mid-range, and treble.
• RF & Wireless: Used in LC (Inductor-Capacitor) circuits for tuning radio frequencies and signal matching.
• Transformers: Two or more coupled inductors used for voltage isolation and signal coupling.
