SC53-471

Fixed Inductors

An inductor, also known as a coil, choke or reactor, is an electrical component critical to a wide range of circuit designs. Fixed inductors are passive components that store energy in the form of a magnetic field when current is passed through them.

The SC53-471 is a type of fixed inductor that is commonly used in low-voltage, high-frequency circuit designs. It is designed to meet the requirements of a variety of electronic devices.

Applications

The SC53-471 is primarily used in wireless communication applications, such as Wi-Fi routers and cellular base stations. It is also commonly used as part of a voltage regulator circuit.

Other applications for the SC53-471 comprise of switching power supplies, voltage regulators, audio amplifiers, LED drivers, and AC/DC converters. As it is a low-voltage, small-size fixed inductor, the SC53-471 is often used for consumer electronics products, such as laptop computers, mobile phones, and digital cameras.

Working Principle

The core of the SC53-471 fixed inductor is made up of a coil of wire, usually wound around a ferrite or iron metal core. As current passes through the inductor, a magnetic field is created around the coil.

The magnetic field store energy proportional to the amount of current passing through the coil. When the current stops flowing, the magnetic field begins to collapse and energy is released back into the inductor in the form of a reversed-polarity voltage. This phenomenon is known as inductance.

The SC53-471 has a low DC resistance of 56 milli-ohms, and a high saturation current of 2.6 amps. This makes it well-suited for high-frequency circuit designs, as the large current can flow through the inductor uninterrupted when the magnetic field is saturated.

The SC53-471 also has a high self-resonant frequency (SRF) of 8 MHz, which allows it to be used at signal frequencies up to 8 MHz without experiencing any losses.

Conclusion

The SC53-471 is a low-voltage, high-frequency fixed inductor that is commonly used in a variety of applications, such as wireless communication, switching power supplies, and voltage regulators. It has a low DC resistance and a high saturation current, as well as a high self-resonant frequency, making it ideal for high-frequency circuit designs.
