High-performance, moulded power inductors offer up to 40% lower DCR than the previous best-in-class inductors have been introduced by Coilcraft.

The XGL4030 Series also offers extremely low AC losses, resulting in the best overall efficiency over a wide range of AC ripple current.

They are ideal for DC-DC converters with switching frequencies ranging from hundreds of kHz to 5MHz and above.

The XGL4030 features an expanded inductance range, including 18 values from 0.13 to 12.0 µH, with current ratings up to 26.5 Amps and soft saturation characteristics.

It also offers a 30% increase in Irms self-heating current, allowing the XGL4030 to operate much cooler than previous-generation components.

The inductors are qualified to AEC-Q200 Grade 1 standards (-40° to +125°C ambient) with a maximum part operating temperature of +165°C and exhibit no thermal ageing issues, making them suitable for automotive and other harsh-environment applications.

They feature RoHS-compliant, tin-silver-over-copper terminations and are halogen free. Their composite construction also minimises audible buzzing.
