Vishay Intertechnology Commercial Inductors Offer High Operating Temperatures to +155 °C in Compact 1212 Case Size

Space-Saving Devices Feature Profiles as Low as 1.0 mm for Computer and Telecom Applications

MALVERN, Pa. — Dec. 4, 2019 — Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. (NYSE: VSH) today introduced three new commercial IHLP® low profile, high current inductors with high operating temperatures up to +155 °C in the 3.3 mm by 3.3 mm 1212 case size — the company’s smallest to date. Designed to save space in computer and telecom applications, the Vishay Dale IHLP-1212AZ-51, IHLP-1212AB-51, and IHLP-1212BZ-51 offer extremely low profiles down to 1.0 mm.

The devices released today are optimized for energy storage in DC/DC converters up to 5 MHz and provide excellent attenuation of noise in high current filtering applications up to the SRF of the inductor. Applications for the inductors include notebooks, desktops, and servers; low profile, high current power supplies; and distributed power systems and FPGAs.

Packaged in a 100 % lead (Pb)-free shielded, composite construction that reduces buzz to ultra low levels, the IHLP-1212AZ-51, IHLP-1212AB-51, and IHLP-1212BZ-51 offer high resistance to thermal shock, moisture, and mechanical shock, and they handle high transient current spikes without saturation. The devices are RoHS-compliant, halogen-free, and Vishay Green.

Quickly and accurately identify inter-domain leakage issues in IC designs

Sponsored by Siemens Digital Industries Software

Power domain leakage is a major IC reliability issue, often missed by traditional tools. This white paper describes challenges of identifying leakage, types of false results, and presents Siemens EDA’s Insight Analyzer. The tool proactively finds true leakage paths, filters out false positives, and helps circuit designers quickly fix risks—enabling more robust, reliable chip designs. With detailed, context-aware analysis, designers save time and improve silicon quality.
