ELC-18B6R8L

Fixed inductors are an important component of any electrical system. The ELC-18B6R8L is a fixed inductor specifically designed for use in a wide range of applications. In this article, we will discuss the application field and working principle of the ELC-18B6R8L.

The ELC-18B6R8L is designed for use in high frequency, low voltage applications in filter designs, tuned amplifiers, multi-beat oscillators, and impedance matching networks. The ELC-18B6R8L is an axial type, cylindrical inductor with a standoff pin to hold it in place. It features a ferrite core and an air gap to maximize inductance. The ELC-18B6R8L has a nominal inductance of 0.18mH and is rated for up to 8A of current.

The working principle of the ELC-18B6R8L is based on the principle that an electric current creates a magnetic field around it. The inductor uses this principle by having a coil of wire wound around the ferrite core which creates a magnetic field when a current runs through it. This magnetic field induces a voltage in the coil which then opposes the flow of current, thus reducing the current. The length and size of the coil, as well as the size of the magnetic core, determines the inductance of the component and the amount of current it can handle.

The ELC-18B6R8L is also designed to be stable and reliable in high temperature environments. It is rated up to +125°C and the air gap between the core and the inductor provides additional thermal management benefits. The ELC-18B6R8L is also RoHS compliant, allowing for its use in a wide range of applications.

The design of the ELC-18B6R8L makes it an ideal choice for applications in which high inductance and high current are required. Its low-profile design and its large surface area provide additional benefits for applications in tight spaces. The ELC-18B6R8L is an excellent choice for a wide variety of low voltage, high frequency applications.
