Murata Releases Inductor Series for Height-Constrained Applications

Murata Power Solutions announced the 2700 and 2700T series of surface mount ultra-low profile power inductors aimed at a broad range of consumer electronic devices. The series has been designed specifically for use in applications where a low component height is crucial such as in handheld equipment and notebook computers.

The 2700 series inductors, measuring just 9.0 x 7.7 x 1.65mm, offers a wide range of inductance values from 4.7 to 1000µH and a device dependent maximum dc current up to 1.6A. dc resistance values range from 0.1Ω up to 14Ω for the 1mH part.

The slightly smaller 2700T series provides inductance values in the range 1 to 330uH and with a maximum operating current up to 2.0A. DC resistance is 80mohm for the 1uH part and increases up to 15Ω for the 330µH inductor.

The 2700/2700T series have an operating temperature from -40 to +125°C. The inductors are supplied in tape and reel for high volume automated surface mount assembly. Peak reflow solder temperature is +260d°C as required by J-STD-020D.
