Würth Elektronik offers WE-LHCA (Low Profile High Current Automotive Inductor) – a particularly flat and temperature-tough inductor in four sizes with different inductance values. The power inductors are designed for an extended temperature range of -55 to +155°C and are constructed to avoid thermal degradation. The AEC-Q200-certified inductor is suitable for applications such as high-current power supplies, start-stop systems, power distribution modules, on-board chargers, infotainment or HVAC systems.
The WE-LHCA inductor family comprises the following sizes: 7030 (L = 0.47-22 µH), 1040 (L = 1-68 µH), 1365 (L = 1-47 µH) and 1770 (L = 4.7-82 µH). These components feature a low-profile shielded construction with a distributed air gap in iron alloy powder.
The high-current inductors are available from stock. Würth Elektronik provides developers with free samples.
