Vishay Extends IHLP Family of Surface-Mount Inductors With Devices
Featuring Saturation Currents up to 50 A, Typical DCR Values Down
to 1.5 mO, and a Very Low 2.4-mm Height Profile
MALVERN, PENNSYLVANIA - April 11, 2003 - Vishay Intertechnology,
Inc. (NYSE: VSH) today announced the release of the new
IHLP-2525BD-01 series of low-profile, surface-mount inductors,
which feature saturation currents up to 50 A and typical DCR values
as low as 1.5 mO in a package with an exceptionally low height
profile of 2.4 mm.
Research conducted by Vishay indicates that these
new additions to the patented IHLP series of devices offer the
best current ratings for power inductors in this footprint size
while also providing lower DCR values than conventional solutions.
With their industry-leading size and electrical specifications,
devices in the low-profile Vishay Dale IHLP-2525BD-01
series offer higher-performing, space- and power-saving solutions
for dc-to-dc converter and energy storage applications in end
products including computers, servers, telecom, and automotive
electronics.
Along with their low 2.4-mm [0.095-in.] height
profile, the new surface-mount inductors feature a footprint with
dimensions of 6.47 mm by 6.86 mm [0.255 in. by 0.270 in.]. The
series’ saturation current ranges from 7 A to 50 A, and
typical DCR values range from 1.5 mO to 115.6 mO over a standard
inductance range of 0.10 µH to 10 µH, with a tolerance
of ±20%. At full rated current, IHLP inductors feature
an inductance drop of less than 20% - a lower inductance roll-off
than is provided by ferrite materials.
IHLP-2525BD-01
inductors handle high transient current spikes without saturation
and operate over a frequency range up to 5 MHz. Packaged in a
100% lead-free, shielded, composite construction that reduces
noise buzz to ultra-low levels, the new devices are specified
for an operating temperature range of -55°C to +125°C
with high resistance to thermal shock, moisture, mechanical shock,
and vibration.
Samples and production quantities are available
now. Lead time for production quantities is six to eight weeks.
