Romoland, CA—Design engineers looking for a very low profile surface mount inductor that provides effective EMI protection for their applications will find the new DR365-1 Inductors from Datatronic Distribution, Inc., offer superior performance and reliability. The inductors also meet the requirements for RoHS compliance.

The ultra-thin DR365-1 Inductors feature a seated height as low as 0.047 inches (1.2 mm) above the printed circuit board depending on the inductance value required by the design. These inductors are ideal for a wide range of portable, compact and miniature devices, such as PDAs, mobile phones, portable hard drives, medical appliances, bar code scanners--wherever high-density circuit board design is a requirement.

In addition to their small size, the DR365-1 feature a wide inductance range from 3.3 to 100 uH (at 100 kHz, 0.1V), with a DCR range from 0.11 to 2.8 ohms and a maximum rated current from 0.94 to 0.20 amps. They operate over a wide temperature range from -20 to +80ºC, making them suitable for use in many rugged environments.

The DR365-1 Inductors are designed with materials that meet the requirements of UL94V-0 for flammability. With their slender surface mount package design, high performance over a wide inductance range and rugged design, these inductors are ideal for use in a wide range of markets, including industrial, medical, instrumentation, telecom and computer.

The advanced DR365-1 come in a square package as small as 0.237 inches square (6mm square). Their flat top design makes them compatible with high-speed pick-and-place assembly equipment, and they are suitable for high-temperature soldering. They are shipped standard on tape-and-reel with 2,000 pieces provided per reel.

Custom designed DR365-1 Series Inductors are available upon request to meet unique circuit requirements. The DR365-1 Inductors are priced from $0.44 each in typical production volumes. Lead time is stock to six weeks. Volume OEM pricing is available upon request.
