Vishay Intertechnology Launches High-Performance Inductors
Revolutionary Automotive Inductors by Vishay Intertechnology
MALVERN, Pa. — Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. (NYSE: VSH) recently unveiled two cutting-edge IHDM Automotive Grade inductors designed for demanding automotive applications. These new edge-wound, through-hole inductors, available in the 1107 case size, exhibit remarkable soft saturation current levels of up to 422 A. The use of advanced powdered iron alloy core technology enables stable inductance and saturation across a wide operating temperature range from -40 °C to +180 °C, ensuring reliable performance even in challenging conditions.
Significant Performance Metrics
The newly launched inductors, IHDM-1107BBEV-2A and IHDM-1107BBEV-3A, stand out in the market with their low DC resistance (DCR) values as low as 0.22 m?. This feature minimizes loss and enhances current ratings, improving overall efficiency. Compared to traditional ferrite-based inductors, these products offer a remarkable 30% increase in both rated and saturation current levels at a temperature of +125 °C. The soft saturation characteristics ensure that inductance decreases predictably as current increases, maintaining performance stability regardless of temperature fluctuations.
Ideal Applications for High-Temperature Environments
Engineered to meet AEC-Q200 standards, these inductors are ideally suited for high-current power applications in electric vehicles, such as DC/DC converters, inverters, on-board chargers, and domain control units. Their high isolation voltage rating of up to 350 V makes them an excellent choice for demanding automotive environments, including applications focused on reducing motor and switching noise suppression in internal combustion vehicles, hybrids, and fully electric vehicles. Additionally, they come with a selection of core materials tailored to optimize performance for specific applications.
Customization and Versatility Options
Vishay is proud to offer customizable options for the IHDM-1107BBEV-2A and IHDM-1107BBEV-3A inductors. Customers can request performance adjustments, including specific inductance, DCR, rated current, and voltage. Standard mountings include stripped and tinned terminals for easy through-hole installation, while options for bare copper, surface-mount technology, and press fit mounting are also available. To combat the risk of whisker growth, these inductors are designed with hot-dipped tin plating, emphasizing Vishay's commitment to quality and reliability.
Commitment to Quality and Compliance
These inductors also comply with RoHS directives and are halogen-free, aligning with global environmental standards. Vishay continues to prioritize sustainability in their manufacturing processes, embracing what they call 'Vishay Green,' a commitment to reducing environmental impact and supporting a sustainable future through their product offerings.
Currently, samples and full production quantities of the IHDM-1107BBEV-2A and IHDM-1107BBEV-3A are readily available, with lead times estimated at 14 weeks. Vishay Intertechnology, the company behind these innovations, remains a leader in the field of discrete semiconductors and passive electronic components, delivering essential solutions for industries ranging from automotive to medical technologies.
As a Fortune 1000 Company publicly traded on the NYSE under the ticker VSH, Vishay Intertechnology upholds a strong reputation built on innovation and excellence across its extensive product portfolio, affirming their positioning as 'The DNA of tech.'
