Vishay Launches IHLP1212-EZ-1Z Inductor with 14.3 A Rating in 3×3 mm Footprint
Vishay introduced the IHLP1212-EZ-1Z low-profile inductor in a 3×3 mm footprint offering DCR from 8.6 to 50.4 mΩ, inductances of 0.22–3.3 μH and rated currents up to 14.3 A across 1.2, 1.5 and 2.0 mm heights. Samples ship in 10 weeks with U.S. pricing from $0.463 per unit.
1. Product Launch Overview
Vishay Intertechnology rolled out the IHLP1212-EZ-1Z high-current inductor in the compact 1212 case size, featuring a 3.0 mm x 3.0 mm footprint and three low-profile heights of 1.2 mm, 1.5 mm and 2.0 mm. This model matches performance of larger inductors while addressing tight space constraints in commercial designs.
2. Technical Specifications
The IHLP1212-EZ-1Z delivers typical DCR from 8.6 to 50.4 mΩ and inductance options ranging 0.22–3.3 μH, supporting rated currents up to 14.3 A. It operates from –55 °C to +125 °C, withstands high transient currents without saturation, and its encapsulated powdered iron body eliminates air gaps and shields against crosstalk.
3. Applications and Markets
Designed for energy storage in low-profile DC/DC converters, the inductor targets power line noise suppression and filtering in industrial drives, computer peripherals, consumer electronics, telecom equipment, healthcare devices and building controls. Its high efficiency and soft saturation curve enhance stability across diverse commercial applications.
4. Availability and Pricing
Samples and production volumes of the IHLP1212-EZ-1Z are available now with a 10-week lead time. U.S. pricing starts at $0.463 per unit for the AEEZ1R0M1Z versions and $0.489 per unit for the ABEZ1R0M1Z variant.
