06-12-2021 | Vishay | Passives

Vishay Intertechnology says that the lead times for its IHLP low profile, high current inductors is stable and competitive at 10 to 16 weeks. Consequently, with improved productivity and a capacity expansion, the company is presently experiencing no shortages for these products. And with its continued efforts to increase capacity, the company does not foresee any issues in providing its customers with the devices for the balance of 2021 and beyond.

Offered in ten case sizes ranging from 1212 to 8787, the inductors are provided in commercial and automotive grade versions. Applications for commercial devices incorporate notebooks, desktops, and servers; low profile, high current power supplies; battery-powered devices; POL converters; and distributed power systems and FPGAs. Automotive Grade devices are designed for filtering and DC/DC conversion in engine and transmission control units, diesel injection drivers, and entertainment/navigation systems, as well as noise suppression for high current BLDC motors, windshield wipers, power mirrors and seats, HID and LED lighting, and heating and ventilation blowers.

Packaged in a 100% lead (Pb)-free shielded, composite construction that lessens buzz to ultra-low levels, the inductors provide high resistance to thermal shock, moisture, and mechanical shock. They handle high transient current spikes without saturation.
