CTX01-15195

Fixed inductors are electronic components that store electrical energy in the form of a magnetic field when current passes through it. The CTX01-15195 is a miniature, unshielded inductor with a low cost and excellent performance.

Application Field

The CTX01-15195 is a good choice for various consumer electronic and automotive applications. For instance, it can be used in DC/DC converters, battery chargers, other DC/DC converters, switching power supplies, wireless charging coils, and fuel injection systems. It can also be used in automotive ECU modules, engine/transmission control systems, CVT systems, and other vehicle components.

Working Principle

The working principle of the CTX01-15195 is based on the relationship between the inductance and current, which is known as Faraday\'s law of induction. When current passes through the inductor, an electromagnetic field is created, which induces a voltage across the inductor\'s terminals. This voltage is proportional to the rate of change of current and is in the opposite direction to the applied current. Hence, the voltage will oppose any changes in the current, resulting in an inductive reactance.

The CTX01-15195 is a through-hole component and is designed for high-frequency applications. It is rated for operation at up to 2.5GHz and can operate up to 125°C. It has a high Q factor and low equivalent series resistance, making it particularly suitable for RF applications. It is available in three inductance values of 18nH, 20nH, and 30nH.
