Fixed Inductors

Fixed inductors are passive electronic components used to store energy in the form of a magnetic field. They are made from a coil of wire that is wound around a core material to provide a fixed inductance. Fixed inductors are available in a wide range of values and sizes, and are widely used in electronics circuits.

PM1608S-472M-RC is a type of fixed inductor designed for use in high-frequency, low-power applications. It comprises of a 1.6mm-square surface mount package that contains a 470nH inductor. The device is constructed with copper as its core material, providing a low DC resistance of 0.540Ω. It has an optimum working temperature range of -40°C to 85°C.

In terms of its application field, the use of the PM1608S-472M-RC is primarily limited to high-frequency, low-power applications such as in mobile phones, television, computer systems and other consumer electronic devices. Due to its low resistance, the device is well suited to applications where power dissipation is an issue. Additionally, the device’s small size makes it particularly ideal for use in compact products.

The working principle of the PM1608S-472M-RC fixed inductor is based on Faraday’s Law of Electromagnetic Induction, which states that a changing magnetic field induces an electromotive force (emf) in a nearby circuit. When an electric current flows through a coil, a magnetic field is generated around the coil, inducing a voltage in a nearby circuit. This induced voltage opposes the changing electric current, and is known as an inductance, which is measured in henries (or microhenries in the case of the PM1608S-472M-RC).

In summary, the PM1608S-472M-RC fixed inductor is a 470nH device, constructed using copper as its core material, for use in high-frequency, low-power applications such as mobile phones, television, computer systems and other consumer electronic devices. The device works on the principle of Faraday’s Law of Electromagnetic Induction, which states that a changing magnetic field induces an electromotive force (emf) in a nearby circuit.
