'World's smallest' storage choke on show at PCIM 2015

The WE-MAPI storage choke, claimed to be the smallest in the world, will be on display at the show. Measuring 1.6x1.6x1.0mm, the choke features high saturation currents and low resistance. A USB 2.0 type A jack, which is claimed to be the industry’s first with a fully integrated EMC filter and ESD protection, will also be introduced by the company. The WE-EPLE is pin-compatible with most existing THT USB 2.0 jacks and provides a shortcut for EMC testing.

Alongside its expanded range of capacitors, Würth Elektronik will also present the WE-XHMI and the WE-FAMI high-current inductors. The WE-XHMI, a molded high-current inductor with a flat-wire contact, features 50% less DC resistance than previous storage chokes. The WE-FAMI, which is a THT high-current inductor made of combined core materials, features 60% more saturation current than comparable series.

Ahead of the release of the Infineon XMC Digital Power Explorer Kit, Würth Elektronik will hold two product demonstrations daily. From 10:30am and 1:30pm, detailed product information will be available at the company’s booth.
