Kemet Ferrite Power Inductor 150µH 1.7A

Kemet Ferrite Power Inductor 150µH 1.7A is a power inductor rated at 150µH inductance and 1.7A RMS current, designed for power conversion circuits.

Overview

This Kemet ferrite power inductor features a drum core construction with a nickel-zinc (NiZn) ferrite core. As an unshielded (non-shield type) magnetic component, it provides stable inductance for circuit designs where space and performance are key considerations. The inductor is rated to operate at temperatures up to +105°C.

Key Features

• RMS Current (Irms): 1.7A
• Saturation Current (Isat): 2.9A
• DC Resistance (Max): 0.16 ohm
• Core Material: Nickel-Zinc (NiZn) ferrite
• Construction: Unshielded drum core
• Operating temperature range: Up to +105°C
• Dimensions: 33 mm (width) x 43 mm (height) x 15 mm (depth)
• Weight: 8 grams

Applications

This 150µH inductor is suited to DC/DC converters, where it helps regulate voltage and improve efficiency. It also serves as a noise filter, suppressing electromagnetic interference (EMI) in sensitive circuits. Typical applications include LED lighting drivers, xDSL modems, copying machines, flat-screen televisions, smart meters, and switch-mode power supplies (SMPS).

Series Information

This ferrite power inductor is part of the SBC Series from Kemet. Its specifications suit power conversion circuits, smoothing currents, and filtering noise in power electronics.
