Low-Profile High-Current Inductor Handles Currents to 100A in 8787 Case Size

January 14, 2014 by Jeff Shepard

Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. announced a new IHLP® low-profile, high-current inductor in the 8787 case size with high rated current from 7A to 100A and a high operating temperature to +155 degrees C. The Vishay Dale IHLP-8787MZ-51 offers high efficiency with maximum DCR from 0.67 to 39.4 milliohms and a wide range of inductance values from 0.47 to 100 microhenries. The IHLP-8787MZ-51 device released today serves as a high-performing, space- and power-saving solution for dc-dc converter applications in servers; low-profile, high-current power supplies and point of load (POL) converters; distributed power systems; solar inverters; and industrial lighting.

The new inductor handles high transient current spikes without hard saturation. Packaged in an RoHS-compliant and 100 % lead (Pb)-free shielded, composite construction that reduces buzz noise to ultra-low levels, the device is specified for an operating temperature range of -55 degrees C to +155 degrees C, with high resistance to thermal shock, moisture, mechanical shock, and vibration. The inductor is halogen-free. Samples and production quantities of the IHLP-8787MZ-51 are available now, with lead times of 10 weeks for large orders.
