KEMET SBC Series Ferrite Power Inductor 470µH

The KEMET SBC Series Ferrite Power Inductor is a high-quality component designed for demanding electronic circuits. With a rated inductance of 470µH, this inductor features a durable drum core construction utilising a nickel-zinc (NiZn) ferrite core, which provides stable magnetic performance. As a magnetic non-shield type, it is engineered to handle high currents while maintaining its electrical characteristics under varying conditions.

Suitable for an operating temperature range of up to +105°C, this inductor offers reliable performance in a variety of environments. It is particularly useful in power conversion and noise suppression applications, making it a versatile choice for modern electronic designs. Key specifications include an RMS current (Irms) rating of 490mA and a saturation current (Isat) of 680mA, ensuring it can handle peak power demands without core saturation.

With a maximum DC resistance of 0.95ohm and an inductance tolerance of ±10%, this component provides consistent and predictable behaviour in circuit designs. Its robust construction and precise manufacturing guarantee long-term reliability and efficiency.
