IDCP3020ER100M

Fixed Inductors

Inductors, commonly referred to as coils, are passive electronic components primarily used to store energy in the form of magnetic fields. Generally speaking, as current flows through an inductor, electric energy is converted to magnetic energy, and, conversely, when the current is removed, the magnetic energy is converted to electric energy. This capability makes inductors an invaluable asset for many electronics applications, and the IDCP3020ER100M in particular is widely used for many of these applications.

The IDCP3020ER100M is a high-frequency, surface mount power inductor designed to meet challenging power requirements. It features a 3020L core size with E-series ferrite material and three-dimensional shielding technology. This powerful inductor system offers advantages such as low core loss, low DC resistance, and high reliability.

The IDCP3020ER100M is primarily used in a wide variety of applications, such as automotive electronics, switch-mode power supplies (SMPS), DC/DC power converters, and communication devices. Its main working principle is to convert electrical energy into magnetic energy, and when the current is removed, the magnetic energy is converted back into electrical energy. This inductor uses high-efficient E-Series Ferrite, which has a high saturation flux density and low core loss.

The IDCP3020ER100M is also able to store energy when the current is flowing, which makes it an essential component in certain electronics applications. In SMPS, for instance, the inductor can store energy when the device is input with current, thereafter releasing the energy as a rising voltage with each cycle. The inductor is also necessary in certain DC/DC power converter applications, which require it to boost a low input voltage to a higher output voltage or lowering a high input voltage to a lower output voltage.

In addition to its various power-related uses, the IDCP3020ER100M can also be used in communication-related devices, such as radio-frequency (RF) circuits, portable computers, mobile phones, etc. In these systems, the inductor has the added role of suppressing unintended noise. Offering high isolation between windings, excellent EMI/RFI performance, and low DC resistance, the IDCP3020ER100M is ideal for filter applications as it is able to attenuate a wide range of frequencies.

The IDCP3020ER100M is an excellent choice for a variety of projects and applications that require adjustment, stability, and the accuracy of inductive loads. Its various features – such as its high power handling capabilities, exceptional EMI/RFI performance, low core loss, and low DC resistance – make it an ideal component for many electronics designs.
