SL1720-331K1R5-PF

Fixed inductors are components used for their inductance values in circuits. Types of fixed inductors include air-core, ferrite-core, and wire-wound. The SL1720-331K1R5-PF is a fixed inductor that has been designed with a wide range of applications in mind.

Application Field

The SL1720-331K1R5-PF is a filter inductor, designed for use in low-energy power supplies. It is intended for use in a wide variety of circuits, from DC/DC converters to radio receivers, and is suitable for power levels up to 1 Watt. It is also suitable for use in high frequency applications, with an operating frequency range of up to 1 MHz.

In addition, the SL1720-331K1R5-PF is also suitable for use as a choke inductor or inductive RF noise filter. It has the benefit of being very low-profile, taking up less board space than other inductors, while maintaining good EMI performance. The SL1720-331K1R5-PF is also suitable for EMI filtering, signal line attenuation, and signal adjustment.

Working Principle

The SL1720-331K1R5-PF is based on an inductor core design, which provides an inductance value of 330nH. The core is made of a mixture of ferrite and powdered iron; this combination helps keep the inductance value high even at very low frequencies. This also gives the SL1720-331K1R5-PF higher performance than other inductors with a comparable size and power rating.

The inductance value of the SL1720-331K1R5-PF is also controlled by its winding architecture. Its windings are spread over the entire area of the inductor core, ensuring an evenly distributed magnetic flux density inside the core. This helps contribute to better saturation characteristics and higher efficiency.

The combination of the core design and winding architecture also helps keep the inductor efficient in use. The SL1720-331K1R5-PF has a current carrying capacity of 1.5 Amps, and up to 3.0 Amps peak. Its core also exhibits better thermal performance than competing inductors.

Conclusion

The SL1720-331K1R5-PF is a low-profile, low-power fixed inductor with a wide range of applications. It has excellent thermal and saturation characteristics, and can be used in a variety of power levels and frequencies. Its small size and high efficiency make it an ideal choice for use in low-energy power supplies, EMI filters, and other applications.
