Vanguard announces new common mode choke inductor

Vanguard Electronics has unveiled its new XTCMN5 series common mode choke inductors, the latest addition to Vanguard’s growing high temperature product line.

The XTCMN5 series common mode choke inductors have been designed to operate in extreme environments and work in frequency ranges from 100 KHz to 600 KHZ+ making them ideal parts for gallium nitride (GaN)-based power supplies as well as traditional switching supplies. These partsSource: Vanguard Electronics feature a compact low profile engineered for automatic placement as well as demands of high shock and vibration. Different electrical values and termination finishes are available.

“Many of our high end industrial, military, and aerospace markets need high power densities in a smaller package” said Jason Finley, president of Vanguard Electronics. “Vanguard is continuing to meet these needs with this latest common mode choke inductor series. Compared to the competition, the Vanguard XTCMN series provides better performance in a smaller package size. More sizes and ratings will be following this first series.”

XTCMN5 series common mode choke inductors operate over a temperature range of -55° C to 200° C. This series has an inductance range of 110 uH to 4.9 mH and is able to handle 0.55 A to 4.9 A in a self-shielding nanocrystalline toroidal core. The inductor’s overload current is one-and-a-half times its rated current. The inductors are designed to serve military, high end industrial, extreme temperature and aerospace markets as well as anywhere noise suppression is needed.
