CTX99-15460

Fixed inductors are an essential component of many electronic circuits. They are used to build up a steady current in a circuit or to hold a specified voltage in a device. CTX99-15460 is a general-purpose fixed inductor with high thermal ratings and reliability. It can be used in a wide range of applications requiring tight regulation of inductance.

CTX99-15460 can be found in standard inductors manufactured for less demanding applications such as in switch mode power supplies, cell phone chargers, and switching regulators. Designed for high current applications, the CTX99-15460 is a good choice for most applications involving the regulation of inductance, making it a versatile and reliable part.

The CTX99-15460 is built using a high-grade UL 94V-0 flame-retardant thermoplastic material, providing good thermal and mechanical shock protection. The core material is formed from two parts of air-core type enamel copper wire, and a ferrite binder, which increases its maximum allowable current. The ends are wound with a winding made from PVC wire, which provides good electrical insulation and strength.

The working principle of the CTX99-15460 is the same as with any other fixed inductor. It works by storing energy magnetically due to the presence of the core material and the winding. When a current is applied to a winding, the energy stored in the core will increase, inducing a voltage in the winding. The induced voltage will be proportional to the amount of stored energy, and the current applied, increasing the inductance of the device.

The CTX99-15460 inductor is widely used in a wide range of applications including in computer power supplies, power amplifier circuits, automotive applications, and power converters. Its wide temperature range and high maximum current rating make it suitable for a variety of applications. For example, in high-performance power supplies, the CTX99-15460 is often used to regulate the output voltage, ensure a smooth power supply, and protect the components from voltage swings. In car audio, the component can be used to filter high frequency audio signals, improve the overall sound quality, and reduce distortion.

The CTX99-15460 inductor is a high-quality, reliable part that is used in a wide range of applications. Its wide temperature range and high maximum current rating make it suitable for a variety of applications that require regulation of inductance. With its reliable design and versatile characteristics, the CTX99-15460 has become an essential component in many industries.
