KEMET SBC Series Ferrite Power Inductor, 4.7µH

The KEMET SBC Series Ferrite Power Inductor (4.7µH) is a high-performance, compact component designed for demanding electronic applications. Featuring a durable drum core construction with a nickel‑zinc (NiZn) ferrite core, it provides stable inductance and efficient power handling. As a magnetic non‑shielded type, it is ideal for circuits where controlled magnetic field interaction is acceptable or required.

This inductor excels in DC/DC converter circuits and noise filter networks, helping to smooth power delivery and suppress electromagnetic interference (EMI). Its robust design supports a wide operating temperature range of up to +105°C, ensuring reliable performance in environments with elevated thermal conditions.

Key Specifications & Performance

• Inductance: 4.7µH with a tolerance of ±20%.
• Current Handling: Rated for an RMS current (Irms) of 5.8A and a saturation current (Isat) of 7.1A, providing a good margin for peak loads.
• Low Loss: Maximum DC resistance of just 0.02ohm minimises power loss and heat generation.
• Compact Dimensions: Measures 33mm (width) x 43mm (height) x 15mm (depth), offering a space‑saving footprint for PCB layouts.
• Lightweight: Weighs only 2.07 grams, adding minimal mass to the assembly.
