Low-profile high-current power inductors for high saturation currents

Latest from Vishay is a new series of low-profile, high-current power inductors featuring powdered iron cores for high saturation current up to 5.8A. Lowering costs and saving board space in computer, consumer, and telecom applications, Vishay Dale IHHP series devices are offered in the miniature 2mm by 1.6mm 0806 and 2.5mm by 2mm 1008 case sizes, each available with low profiles of 1mm and 1.2mm. With their high-current performance and small size, the devices are optimized for DC-DC converters and power supply modules in notebook PCs, mobile phones, hard disk drives, SSDs, DVCs, and DSCs. The magnetic-alloy power inductors offer low acoustic noise and provide magnetic shielding to prevent interference with nearby components. The IHHP-0806AZ-01, IHHP-0806AB-01, IHHP-1008AZ-01, and IHHP-1008AB-01 feature high efficiency with maximum DCR down to 15mohm and a wide range of inductance values from 0.22µH to 10µH. The devices provide a heat rating current up to 5.3A and operate over a temperature range from -55C to +125C. The devices are packaged in an RoHS-compliant, 100 % lead (Pb)-free shielded construction.
