Surface mount low loss flat coil inductors introduced by Murata Power for high-current applications

MANSFIELD, Mass., 22 May 2011. Murata Power Solutions Inc. in Mansfield, Mass., is introducing surface-mount flat-coil inductors for high-current applications low power loss is required. The 3700, 3800, and 3900 series inductors are for DC-DC power converter applications that need high transient response.The flat-coil inductor power electronics devices provide inductance values from 0.15 to 10 microHenries with DC current ratings as strong as 19.5 amps. These surface mount devices measure 14.5 by 11.5 by 5.8 millimeters, are available with DC resistance values ranging from 0.9 to a maximum of 20.3 milli-ohms to minimize voltage drops.Applications can include voltage regulator modules, notebook computers, and plasma displays. They operate in temperatures from -40 to 130 degrees Celsius.

All inductors are RoHS compliant and backward compatible with tin-lead soldering systems. They come in tape and reel packaging. For more information contact Murata Power online at www.murata-ps.com.
