MIL2510-74K

Fixed inductors are components that have an inductance that does not vary with a change in current. The MIL2510-74K is a ceramic core, axial, fixed inductor with a rated inductance of 10.7µH and an operating frequency of 2–60MHz. With its small size, high efficiency, and low cost, the MIL2510-74K fixed inductor is suitable for a variety of applications.

Applications

The MIL2510-74K is most commonly used for RF, microwave, and analog signal-processing applications such as cellular phones, satellite receivers, and antennas. It is also used in power supply and battery-charging circuits, and for applications that require a constant current such as DC-DC converters.

Working Principle

The MIL2510-74K fixed inductor works by utilizing a ceramic core surrounded by copper windings. The non-magnetic core allows for the flow of an alternating current in the windings. This alternating current induces a magnetic field in the core, which oppose the changes of the current in the windings. This opposes the changes in current, creating an inductance.

The inductance of the MIL2510-74K is measured at 10.7µH, meaning that the inductor will create 10.7µH of opposition per Volt of current. This high value allows for higher efficiency and increased power transfer to the connected device.

Conclusion

The MIL2510-74K fixed inductor is an excellent choice for high-efficiency and high-frequency applications such as cellular phones, satellite receivers, and antennas. Its small size, high efficiency, and low cost makes it ideal for a variety of applications.
