TDK offers PCM120T shielded SMT power inductors with saturation currents of up to 80 A

March 21, 2022

March 18, 2022 — TDK Corporation (TSE: 6762) introduces the new PCM120T series of shielded SMT power inductors, optimized for high saturation currents and low DC resistances. The PCM120T product family includes 14 inductance values between 0.4 µH and 10 µH, whereby saturation currents of up to 80 A are reached depending on the L value. Optimal saturation properties are achieved through the use of an iron alloy core. Flat wire windings are used to keep losses as low as possible. This results in low ohmic resistance values (RDC) of 0.72 mΩ (0.4 µH) to 9 mΩ (10 µH). The new inductors have an outstanding EMC performance due to … Read More → "TDK offers PCM120T shielded SMT power inductors with saturation currents of up to 80 A"
