KEMET Ferrite Power Inductor 6.8µH

The KEMET Ferrite Power Inductor is a high-performance component designed for a wide range of demanding electronic applications. Featuring a robust drum core construction and a nickel-zinc (NiZn) ferrite core, this inductor is well-suited for use in DC/DC converters and noise filters, providing reliable energy storage and EMI suppression.

This magnetic non-shielded type inductor offers an inductance value of 6.8µH with a tolerance of ±20%, allowing for stable performance in circuit designs. It is engineered to handle high currents, with an RMS current (Irms) rating of 4.5A and a saturation current (Isat) of 5.6A, ensuring it can operate effectively under substantial loads without significant performance loss. The low DC resistance of a maximum of 0.03 ohm contributes to high efficiency by minimising power losses as heat.

Built to withstand challenging operating conditions, the inductor can function reliably in environments with temperatures up to +105°C. This makes it a durable choice for modern electronic devices that require consistent operation over extended periods. Its versatile design and robust specifications make it a crucial component in power management and signal integrity circuits.
