Vishay Intertechnology IHLP low-profile, high-current inductor

Vishay Intertechnology’s IHLP low-profile, high-current inductor in the 2020 case size offers an ultralow 1.2 mm profile with a high maximum frequency and low inductance values down to 0.10 µH.

With a frequency range up to 5 MHz, the IHLP inductor serves as a high-performing, space- and power-saving solution for voltage regulator module (VRM) and DC/DC converter applications in end products. These include next-generation mobile devices, notebooks, graphic cards, portable gaming devices, personal navigation systems and personal multimedia devices. The inductor is also a solution for low-profile, high-current power supplies and point of load (POL) converters, distributed power systems and field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs).

The IHLP-2020AB-01 offers an inductance range from 0.10 to 4.7 µH, a saturation current range from 4.4 up to 35 A, typical DCR from 4.32 to 159 mΩ, and maximum DCR from 4.6 to 168 mΩ. The inductor handles high transient current spikes without hard saturation. It is packaged in an RoHS-compliant, 100% lead (Pb)-free shielded, composite construction that reduces buzz noise to ultralow levels. The device is specified for an operating temperature range of 55 to 125°C, with high resistance to thermal shock, moisture, mechanical shock and vibration.
