Chip Inductors Offer Low Rdc and High-current Operation
November 30, 2005 |Estimated reading time: Less than a minute
SCHAUMBURG, Ill. — The LB3218 wire-wound chip inductor from Taiyo Yuden combines the functionality of two 3225-size low-resistance and high-current inductors into a single 3218-size device. The inductor is suitable for use in power supply circuits of digital still cameras, camcorders, VCRs and other commodity-type equipment.
The small-footprint LB3218 is designed as a drop-in replacement for past-generation LEMF and LEMC series inductors. The device uses the same land pattern, eliminating design modifications needed to upgrade parts. The shape of the device's ferrite core, as well as its thickness and number of wingdings were designed to eliminate wasted space and product a high current and low Rdc. The non-polarized electrodes of the LB3218 series enable mounting despite device orientation, easing manufacturability.
