KEMET Ferrite Power Inductor, 6800uH, SBC Series

The KEMET SBC Series Ferrite Power Inductor is a high-quality, unshielded component engineered for stable performance in demanding electronic circuits. Featuring a drum core construction with a nickel-zinc (NiZn) ferrite core, this 6.8mH (6800μH) inductor is optimised for efficiency and reliability in a broad spectrum of power conversion and filtering applications.

Designed for DC/DC converters and noise filters, this inductor is a critical component for managing power integrity and suppressing electromagnetic interference (EMI). Its robust design supports an RMS current (Irms) of 210mA and a saturation current (Isat) of 440mA, ensuring consistent inductance under load. With a maximum DC resistance of 7ohm and an inductance tolerance of ±10%, it provides predictable performance essential for precise circuit design.

Typical Applications

This versatile inductor is commonly used in modern electronic devices, including:

• LED lighting systems for stable driver operation
• xDSL modems for signal integrity and power filtering
• Office equipment such as copying machines
• Consumer electronics including flat-screen televisions
• Smart meters for utility monitoring
• Various switched-mode and linear power supplies

Constructed as a magnetic non-shield type, it is suitable for designs where controlled magnetic field exposure is acceptable. The component is rated for an operating temperature range of up to +105°C, making it suitable for environments with elevated thermal conditions. With compact dimensions of 43mm x 33mm x 15mm, it offers a powerful inductive solution in a relatively small footprint, facilitating efficient use of PCB space.
