Vishay Intertechnology Inc. has introduced three new automotive-grade, IHLP, low-profile, high-current Inductors in the company’s smallest automotive-qualified case size to date: 3.3 mm x 3.3 mm.
Designed to save space in advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) and sensor applications, the Vishay Dale IHLP-1212AZ-5A, IHLP-1212BZ-A1 and IHLP-1212BZ-5A combine high operating temperatures of up to 155° C with extremely low profiles down to 1.0 mm.
The AEC-Q200 qualified devices are optimized for energy storage in DC/DC converters up to 5 MHz. They also provide excellent attenuation of noise in high-current filtering applications up to the self-resonant frequency of the inductor. With high operating temperatures, the inductors are for filtering and DC/DC conversion in ADAS, sensor, and entertainment and navigation systems, in addition to noise suppression for medium current filter applications.
Packaged in a 100% lead-free, shielded, composite construction that reduces buzz to ultra-low levels, the IHLP-1212AZ-5A, IHLP-1212BZ-A1 and IHLP-1212BZ-5A offer high resistance to thermal shock, moisture and mechanical shock, and handle high transient current spikes without saturation. The devices are RoHS-compliant, halogen-free and Vishay Green.
