Additional Details

Key specifications include the inductance (15 µH), DC resistance (DCR), saturation current (Isat), and rated current (Irms). These parameters are critical for selecting the appropriate inductor for a specific application. The shielded construction minimizes electromagnetic interference (EMI) and allows for high-density circuit board layouts. The typical height is around 1.3mm. Consult the Sumida datasheet for detailed specifications, performance curves, and recommended operating conditions. The operating temperature range is typically -40°C to +125°C. The inductance tolerance is also a significant factor to consider during circuit design.
