Würth Elektronik WE-HEPC SMT Power Inductor series

Würth Elektronik has launched the WE-HEPC, a small NiZn-ferrite-based self-shielded power inductor. Thanks to an automated manufacturing process, these inductors are designed to provide high quality and a high saturation current. In all, there are 15 models available with different attributes (L: 3.3~100 µH; ISAT: 1.3~3.3 A) and in package sizes 5030 (4.8x4.8 x1.8 mm) and 6030 (5.9x 5.9x2.85 mm).

The power inductor series is suitable for DC/DC converters, filter applications, embedded computers and other compact design applications. Due to its AEC Q-200 Grade 1 rating, it can also be used for some automobile applications. The operating temperature range spans -40 to +125°C. The land pattern is compatible with older WE-SPC and WE-TPC inductors, giving customers a large amount of design flexibility.
