Shielded power inductors handle high saturation currents

November 12, 2014 By Megan Hollis Leave a Comment

Coilcraft’s XAL15xx Family of rugged, magnetically-shielded power inductors are offered in two versions – one providing saturation current ratings up to 111 Amps and the other offering inductance values as high as 33 µH – delivering the highest levels of performance in the smallest possible space.

XAL15xxThe XAL1510 Series offers a unique combination of high inductance values (up to 33 µH) and current rating as high as 39.0 Amps, all in a compact package that measures just 15.4 X 16.4 mm and has a maximum height of 11.0 mm. For even higher current applications, the XAL1580 Series offers Isat ratings up to 111 Amps, with a 15.2 X 16.2 mm footprint and maximum height of 8.2 mm.

Both series offer very low DCR – down to 0.70 mOhms for the XAL1580 – and their soft saturation characteristics make them ideal for VRM/VRD applications. They feature RoHS compliant tin-silver (96.5/3.5) over copper terminations and offer a maximum reflow temperature of 260°C. And like all Coilcraft XAL/XFL inductors, the XAL1510 and XAL1580 Series feature a proprietary composite core that is not subject to thermal aging issues associated with other iron powder core inductors.
