SCHURTER is releasing a new family of vertically mountable chokes for PCBs with high inductance values. The current-compensated DKCV-1 chokes are designed for currents from 0.5 to 10A. Due to nanocrystalline cores, they offer exceptionally high inductance in an extremely compact dimension, and are well suited for EMI suppression in industrial, medical, and test equipment up to 300 VAC/450 VDC.
Modern, high-performance applications are becoming increasingly smaller and more energy-efficient – but this miniaturisation also promotes electromagnetic interference. To effectively suppress such interference, powerful filter components are required. Thanks to their compact design, DKCV-1 chokes can be mounted directly on the PCB while providing exceptionally high attenuation.
The nanocrystalline cores allow for very high currents with extremely compact dimensions. Thanks to the vertical choke arrangement, they also require very little space on the PCB. All variants of the DKCV-1 family have the same footprint on the PCB.
The new chokes are well suited for demanding applications that require high inductance with compact dimensions. These include switching power supplies, industrial, medical, laboratory and test equipment. The chokes are suitable for currents up to 10A and voltages up to 300VAC or 450VDC and have ENEC, cUR and UR approvals.
