Vishay Intertechnology Inc. has introduced a new high current inductor that provides 50% lower direct current resistance than typical power inductors for improved efficiency in high frequency DC/DC converters. Using materials and construction similar to the IHLP, the Vishay Dale IHVR-4024KE-51 also offers excellent saturation and temperature stability. Available in the compact 10 mm x 6 mm x 10 mm 4024 case size, the device enables high current density, while its vertical-mount design saves on board space.
Featuring high temperature operation to 155° C, the inductor is optimized for energy storage in DC/DC converters up to 5 MHz and provides excellent attenuation of noise in high current filtering applications up to

Applications for the IHVR-4024KE-51 will include servers and desktop PCs; high current point of load converters; multi-phase, high current power supplies; battery-powered devices; distributed power systems and field-programmable gate arrays.
Packaged in a 100% lead-free shielded, composite construction that reduces buzz to ultra low levels, the RoHS-compliant inductor offers high resistance to thermal shock, moisture and mechanical shock, and handles high transient current spikes without saturation.
Samples and production quantities of the IHVR-4024KE-51 are available now, with lead times of 12 weeks for large orders. Pricing for U.S. delivery only starts at $0.40 per piece in 10,000-piece quantities.
