CIH02T18NHNC

Fixed inductors are often used in electrical and electronic circuits as a source of electrical current. Their applications range from supplying alternatives to large, bulky capacitors, to aiding in the design of certain circuits and systems. One example of a fixed inductor is the CIH02T18NHNC, a large surface mount inductor designed for power applications. This article will discuss the application field and working principle of the CIH02T18NHNC.

Description

The CIH02T18NHNC is a large surface mount inductor rated for up to 18 Amps. It is specifically designed for power applications and is particularly useful in high frequency switching circuits. It has a size of 21.44 x 25.4 x 16.51mm and a weight of 8.6 grams.

Application Field

The CIH02T18NHNC has multiple applications, but it is most commonly used as a voltage regulator in high power applications. It can be used to regulate DC voltages in power circuits such as automotive systems, and it can also be used to keep currents flowing at desired levels.

The CIH02T18NHNC is also suitable for frequency converters, which are frequently used in industrial applications. It is used in these converters to help shape the output voltage so the circuit will have a smooth operational range. The CIH02T18NHNC is also useful in pulse power supplies, where it helps create a steady current flow so the circuit can operate at the desired frequency. Finally, the CIH02T18NHNC is also used in multiple-phase motor drives, where it helps ensure the proper voltage levels between the phases.

Working Principle

The CIH02T18NHNC works by storing electrical energy in its coil. When the current flowing through the inductor changes, an opposing voltage is generated, as dictated by Faraday’s Law of Electromagnetic Induction. This opposing voltage helps to keep the current within the desired range.

The inductor also acts as a low pass filter, which means it can help reduce the effects of electrical noise. This can be useful in applications such as motor drives, where electrical noise can interfere with the performance of the system.

Conclusion

The CIH02T18NHNC is a large surface mount inductor designed for power applications. It can be used to regulate DC voltages and provide current control in high power applications. It is often used in frequency converters, pulse power supplies, and multiple-phase motor drives. The CIH02T18NHNC works by storing electrical energy in its coil and creating an opposing voltage to help keep the current within desired ranges. This can also help reduce electrical noise in some circuits, making it a useful addition to a number of applications.
