Fixed Inductors

Fixed inductors are components which store energy in the form of a magnetic field and act as a ‘reversed capacitor’. As an electrical component, they find applications in a wide range of devices and systems, including consumer products, industrial applications, automotive electronics, and medical devices. One example of a fixed inductor which has been widely adopted is the SWS-5.0-50.

The SWS-5.0-50 is a fixed inductor that is designed to meet the needs of applications requiring high accuracy, reliability, and repeatable performance in a relatively small size. It is a surface-mountable device measuring only 5.0 x 5.0 x 4.0 mm and is available in both tape and reel packaging for automated assembly. The SWS-5.0-50 is rated at 50 mA, and offers a saturation current of 70 mA.

The main advantage of the SWS-5.0-50 is its high operating frequency. With a frequency range of up to 60 MHz, the device is well-suited for use in high-frequency switching applications. Its tight tolerance (±10%) ensures high accuracy in frequency and current ratings, ensuring reliable, repeatable performance.

The SWS-5-50 also offers excellent temperature stability, with an operating temperature range of -25 °C to +155°C. This makes it an ideal choice for use in temperature-sensitive applications, such as automotive and medical devices. Its high heat dissipation capabilities also make it suitable for high power applications.

The SWS-5-50’s main function is to create a magnetic field when current is passed through it. This magnetic field acts as a reservoir for energy, allowing the device to act as a ‘reversed capacitor’. When current passes through the device, the magnetic field absorbs energy and stores it for later use. This process is known as inductive loading, and is a key function of the fixed inductor.

The working principle of the SWS-5-50 is based on Faraday\'s law of induction. This states that when an electrical current flows through a conductor, it produces a magnetic field around it, which induces an electromotive force (EMF) in any nearby conductors. The intensity of the induced EMF is proportional to the rate of change of the current, which means that a fast-switching current will create a higher EMF than a slower one.

The SWS-5-50 is designed to take advantage of this by using an internal coil which is rapidly switched by the current passing through the device, thereby creating a magnetic field and inductive loading. The device is designed in such a way that the inductor is wound around the core multiple times in order to increase the intensity of the magnetic field and, in turn, the amount of energy that can be stored. This makes the device suitable for high-power applications, as well as for applications requiring very high accuracy.

The SWS-5-50 is a highly versatile fixed inductor which is well-suited for use in a variety of applications. Its small size, high operating frequency, and excellent temperature stability make it ideal for use in consumer, automotive, and medical electronics. Its ability to store energy via inductive loading also makes it suitable for high power applications. As such, it is no wonder that the SWS-5-50 has become a popular choice for engineers and designers looking for a reliable, repeatable, and accurate fixed inductor.
