Vishay introduced a new IHLP low profile, high current inductor in the compact 1212 case size. For space-constrained commercial applications, the Vishay Dale IHLP1212-EZ-1Z offers comparable electrical performance to larger devices in a compact 3.0 mm x 3.0 mm footprint with three profile options: 1.2 mm, 1.5 mm, and 2.0 mm.
The device is optimized for energy storage in low profile DC/DC converters for PMICs, power line noise suppression, and filtering. Applications for the inductor include industrial drives and tools; home and building control; computers and computer peripherals; consumer entertainment and healthcare devices; telecom equipment; and medical instrumentation.
The IHLP1212-EZ-1Z offers typical DCR from 8.6 mΩ to 50.4 mΩ and a wide range of inductance values from 0.22 µH to 3.3 µH. The inductor provides rated current to 14.3 A, operates over a temperature range of -55 °C to +125 °C, and handles high transient current spikes without saturation.
The IHLP1212-EZ-1Z features a robust powdered iron body that completely encapsulates its windings eliminating air gaps and magnetically shielding against crosstalk to nearby components while its soft saturation curve provides stability across the entire operating temperature and rated current ranges.
Packaged in a 100 % lead (Pb)-free shielded, composite construction that reduces buzz noise to ultra low levels, the inductor offers high resistance to thermal shock, moisture, and mechanical shock. The device is RoHS-compliant, halogen-free, and Vishay Green.
Samples and production quantities of the IHLP1212-EZ-1Z are available now, with a lead time of 10 weeks.
