Vishay Intertechnology Inc. introduces IHLW-5050CE-01, IHLP inductor.
 
This is the first winged, low profile, high-current inductor and is designed to be placed on a cut-out PCB. It offers a high-current solution without exceeding a 1.2-mm profile on either side of the board.
 
With a frequency range up to 5 MHz, the product is reported to handle high transient current spikes without hard saturation. Specified for operating temperatures ranging from 55° C to +125° C, the product is RoHS-compliant and resistant to thermal and mechanical shock, moisture and vibration.

Rogers RO2808 material combines high dielectric constant with a thin dielectric thickness to achieve high capacitance per unit area. Electrical performance enhancements can significantly increase density of integrated components and reduce the package module footprint.

The ceramic filler improves dimensional stability, laser machining and surface topography. Features include low dissipation factor and low copper profile options that offer low loss and high Q factor for signal propagation in fine line/space, high I/O count designs.

RO2808 is available with a dielectric thickness of 0.0011 inch +/- 0.00017 inch. This is supplied with one-half ounce, low profile copper foil with a 0.0950 µm treated side root mean square surface roughness. RO2808 is also provided as a bonding film.
