Vishay IHLM High Current Inductors

Vishay IHLM High Current Inductors are corrosion-resistant modules with shielded construction and flame-retardant encapsulation (UL 94 V-0). IHLM high current inductors have a higher dielectric withstanding voltage than IHLP inductors and can handle strong transient current spikes without saturation. The encapsulated body of the IHLM series inductors provide better moisture resistance and environmental protection. These high current inductors feature an operating temperature range from -55°C to +125°C. Typical applications include battery-powered devices, DC/DC converters, and high-current POL converters.
