PM428S-120-RC

Fixed inductors, or fixed value inductors, are passive electrical components that use an electrical current to create a magnetic field. This magnetic field then produces an inductance in the inductor, which in turn produces an electric current that is proportional to the amount of electrical current that is used to create the field. Fixed inductors are used in a variety of electrical applications. One such application is the PM428S-120-RC.

The PM428S-120-RC is a fixed inductor designed specifically for automotive applications. It is a four-pin device with a rated inductance of 18uH and an operating temperature range of -55C to +125C. It is a surface mount device with the terminals in a TO-220 package. The inductance value of the inductor is fixed, which means that it does not change with changing current through it.

The PM428S-120-RC works by the principle of electromagnetic induction. When an electric current passes through the inductor, it creates a magnetic field. This magnetic field creates an inductance in the inductor, which in turn produces an electric current that is proportional to the amount of electrical current that is conducted through the inductor. This electric current can then be used to power various electrical components and circuits.

The PM428S-120-RC is used in a variety of automotive applications. It is used in vehicle powertrains, ignition systems, vehicles with complex multiplexing, and for controlling the voltage on the power supply rails. It is also used for filtering noise from high frequency signals, for improved noise immunity in automotive applications. Additionally, fixed inductors like the PM428S-120-RC are used to provide EMI/RFI attenuation in automotive radar and radio systems.

The PM428S-120-RC is a fixed inductor that provides the user with the precise inductance value of 18uH. This precision inductance value allows it to be used in many automotive applications such as powertrains, ignition, and noise filtering. Its small form factor and wide operating temperature range make it ideal for use in automotive electronics. It is a reliable device that provides reliable performance in its application field.
