Bourns Introduces Low-Profile Shielded Power Inductors for Automotive Designs
Bourns has introduced the SRP2010PA, SRP2510PA, and SRP2512PA Series shielded power inductors with a metal-alloy powder core, high saturation current, and AEC-Q200 compliance for automotive and DC-DC converter applications.
The inductors are aimed at automotive systems, DC-DC converters, and miniature electronic devices where increasing current requirements are placing greater demands on board space and thermal performance.
Shielded Construction
The SRP-PA Series uses a shielded construction to reduce magnetic field radiation in EMI-sensitive designs. A metal-alloy powder core provides high current capability while supporting low-profile package dimensions.
According to Bourns, the combination of shielding and the metal-alloy core allows the inductors to deliver high saturation current without increasing magnetic field radiation.
Automotive Applications
The series is AEC-Q200 compliant for automotive applications and operates across a temperature range intended for demanding automotive environments. Bourns positions the inductors for automotive power systems and DC-DC converter designs where shielding is required to minimise EMI while meeting package height restrictions.
The devices are also RoHS compliant and halogen free.
Availability
The SRP2010PA, SRP2510PA, and SRP2512PA Series are available now. Samples are available through Bourns Customer Service.
