ROMOLAND, CA - With their powerful magnetic shield, the new low profile DR363 and DR364 Series Surface Mount Inductors from Datatronic Distribution, Inc., provide reliable protection against challenging EMI problems in high current applications.

The advanced surface mount DR363 and DR364 Inductors are available in a wide range of inductance values. They feature a compact and economical design with a seated profile as low as only 0.118 inches (3.0 mm) above the circuit board. They are ideal for high-density circuit board designs.

Combining high-performance, economy and dependability, the DR363 and DR364 Series Inductors provide EMI circuit protection for dc-dc converters and DSC, DVC and PDAs. Their small size makes them especially useful in hand-held, portable or smaller equipment.

Depending on specific model, the DR363 and 364 Series Inductors feature an inductance range from 2.0 to 150 µH, with an operating frequency range from 10 KHz to 1MHz, DCR from 19.2 to 738 Ohms maximum and a maximum current rating from 0.31 to 5.41 Amps. They operate over a wide temperature range from -20 to +85°C and all materials meet UL 94V-0 requirements.

With a rugged design, the compact DR363 and DR364 Series Inductors come in packages as small as 0.248 inches (6.3 mm) wide by 0.244 inches (6.2 mm) long and stand 0.118 inches (3.0 mm) high. Their flat top surface makes them compatible with high-speed pick-and-place assembly equipment, and they are also suitable for high-temperature soldering.

Custom designed DR363 and DR364 Series Inductor packages can be specified to meet unique circuit requirements. The DR363 and DR364 Series Inductors are priced from $0.25 each in typical production volumes. Lead-time is stock to six weeks. Volume OEM pricing is available upon request.
