Common mode choke offers low profile and high shock resistance

16-12-2021 | Vishay | Passives

Vishay Intertechnology has released a new IHCM common mode choke for high current commercial applications to 35A. Offered with a low profile surface-mount construction, the Vishay Custom Magnetics IHCM-2321AA-10 is more robust than bulky toroid-based devices and provides exceptional performance over temperature ranges to +155C.

With its low profile, the device provides smaller size and volume, making it more immune to shock and vibration, while the enhanced core design expands current saturation out to as much as 35A. The device is surface-mountable and compatible with automated pick and place assembly for improved flexibility in board layouts.

Together with excellent saturation characteristics, low DCR losses, and a 1500VDC dielectric withstand voltage between coils, it is excellent for commercial-grade DC-DC converters, EMI filters, and high current filters for noise suppression in motor control and additional circuity in industrial and telecom applications.

As well as the standard surface-mount configuration, the device offers customisable inductance, impedance, DCR, and current ratings, together with through-hole mounting options. The device is RoHS-compliant, halogen-free, and Vishay Green.
