SRP6540-2R2M

Fixed inductors are passive devices consisting of a coil of wire wrapped around a core material. Specifically, the SRP6540-2R2M fixed inductor is part of Vishay’s thru-hole Surface Mount Series. This inductor features an operating temperature range of up to +125 degrees C, a low DCR of 91mohm, and a rated current range of up to 2.20 amps.

Fixed inductors are commonly used in a variety of applications ranging from automotive systems, to industrial automation, to consumer electronics, to telecommunications, and microscopy. Most often, they are used in power supplies, filters, and motor drives. The SRP6540-2R2M inductor can perform in any of these typical applications.

The working principle of a fixed inductor is based on the magnetic field that is generated when current passes through the electrically conductive wire. When a current passes through the coil, it generates a magnetic flux around it. This magnetic field is made up of both an electric and a magnetic field, and due to the magnetic field that is generated, an opposing voltage will be generated in the coil, resulting in a voltage drop.

The SRP6540-2R2M inductor is designed with a patented direct-coupled hybrid-style winding, which is designed to reduce magnetic and electrostatic interference. Thanks to this feature, the SRP6540-2R2M can operate well in noisy environments. Additionally, Vishay’s proprietary process of bonding the leadframes securely to the body of the components results in minimal mechanical stresses to the component and provides a reliable performance over a wide range of temperatures.

The SRP6540-2R2M fixed inductor is ideal for applications which require a high current rating, excellent mechanical reliability, and low acoustic noise. This is why the SRP6540-2R2M is commonly used in power supplies, filters, and motor drives. It is also frequently used in automotive systems, industrial automation, consumer electronics, telecommunications, and microscopy.
