Vishay Intertechnology Automotive Grade
Low-Profile, High-Current Inductors Feature
Integrated E-Shield to Lower Costs and Save
Space Available in 2525, 3232, and 4040 Case
Sizes, Devices Provide -20 dB Electric Field
Reduction at 1 cm
Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. (NYSE: VSH) today expanded
its IHLE series of low-profile, high-current inductors
featuring integrated e-shields for reduction of EMI with new
Automotive Grade devices in the 2525, 3232, and 4040
case sizes. The Vishay Dale IHLE-2525CD-5A, IHLE-
3232DD-5A, and IHLE-4040DD-5A lower costs and save
board space by eliminating the need for separate board-
level Faraday shielding. The devices contain the electric
field associated with EMI in a tin-plated copper integrated
shield, providing up to -20 dB of electric field reduction at 1
cm (above the center of the inductor) when the integrated
shield is connected to ground.
Featuring high-temperature operation to +155 °C and
coplanarity of their four terminals within ≤ 100 µm, theAEC-
Q200-qualified inductors released today are optimized for
energy storage in DC/DC converters and high-current
filtering for automotive engine and transmission control
units, diesel injection drivers, noise suppression for motors,
windshield wipers, power mirrors and seats, entertainment
/ navigation systems, and HID lighting. In addition, the
devices’ 4-terminal connection (two ground connection
points for the shield) provides high-vibration performance
for on-engine and chassis-mounted electronic circuits.
Built on Vishay Dale IHLP® technology, the IHLE-2525CD-
5A, IHLE-3232DD-5A, and IHLE-4040DD-5A feature high
efficiency with typical DCR from 1.55 mΩ to 167 mΩ and
a wide range of inductance values from 0.22 µH to 47 µH.
The devices provide rated currents to 36.0 A and handle
high transient current spikes without saturation. Packaged
in an RoHS-compliant, 100 % lead (Pb)-free shielded
construction, the inductors offer high resistance to thermal
shock, moisture, and mechanical shock. The devices are
halogen-free and Vishay Green.
Samples and production quantities of the new IHLE devices
are available now, with lead times of 10 to 12 weeks for
large orders. Pricing for U.S. delivery only ranges from
$0.50 to $0.75 per piece in 10,000-piece quantities.
Ultra-Compact Open Frame Ac-Dc Power
Supplies are Ideal for Space-Constrained
Applications
CUI Inc today announced a family of ultra compact
ac-dc power supplies in an open frame SIP package.
The 3 W and 5 W configurations of the PBO series
measure as small as 35 x 11 x 18 mm (1.38 x 0.43 x
0.71 in), allowing them to occupy less board real-estate
than other power solutions. The 3 W models are also
available in low-profile, right-angle versions measuring
as small 35 x 18 x 11 mm (1.38 x 0.43 x 0.71 in), making
them ideal for applications where vertical board space
is at a premium.
Available with typical efficiencies up to 80%, the high
density PBO series offers a wide input voltage range of
85 to 264 Vac or 70 to 400 Vdc for high voltage dc-dc
systems. Single output voltages of 3.3, 5, 9, 12, 15 and
24 Vdc are available depending upon the series. For
use in challenging environments, the 3 W models offer a
wide operating temperature range of -40 to +85°C while
the 5 W models provide a range from -25 to +85°C.
Additionally, all models are designed to provide 3,000
Vac input to output isolation.
The PBO series also meets UL60950-1/EN 60950-1
standards, complies with EN55022 Class B limits for
