The ECS-HCMPI-0503Q is a shielded, high-current power inductor designed for DC/DC converters in motor control, distributed power systems, and battery-powered devices. It has a low-profile surface-mount package measuring 5.5 mm × 5.3 mm × 2.9 mm with a recommended land pattern of 4.7 mm × 2.0 mm × 1.25 mm. The part supports operating and storage temperatures from -40°C to +125°C and is AEC-Q200 Grade 1 qualified. Its 0.60 µH variant has a maximum DC resistance of 4.52 mΩ, a saturation current of 22.0 A, and an RMS current rating of 13.6 A at a 20°C temperature rise or 17.7 A at a 40°C rise, tested at 100 kHz. Inductance tolerance is ±20% for the M code variant, and soft saturation behavior is inherent to the design.
A power inductor, also known as a coil or a choke, is a two-terminal passive electronic component used to clean up the output from high-frequency switching power supplies. They offer minimal magnetic radiation which is suitable for low-noise environments by storing energy in the form of a magnetic field. ECS Inc. offers a varied selection of small form factor shielded power inductors for DC/DC power applications. These small form factor shielded power inductors offer low DC resistance and wide temperature ranges and come in both through hole and surface mount (SMD) circuit packages.
