Overview

The 74437346022 is a 2.2 uH shielded molded power inductor from the WE-LHMI series, designed for high-current power supply applications. It features a compact 7.30mm x 6.60mm footprint with an iron powder core, allowing it to handle high saturation currents without a sharp drop in inductance. This inductor is specifically engineered to minimize EMI through its magnetic shielding and molded construction.

Why Choose This Part

This inductor offers a very high saturation current of 19.1A, preventing magnetic core saturation during transient load spikes. Its molded iron powder construction provides a soft saturation characteristic and excellent electromagnetic shielding in a low-profile 3mm height package. The low DCR of 20mOhm ensures minimal self-heating and high efficiency in power-sensitive designs.

Applications

DC/DC Buck Converters
Used as the main energy storage inductor in step-down switching regulators for high-density power modules.
Embedded Computing Power
Ideal for providing stable power rails to FPGAs, GPUs, and high-performance microprocessors requiring up to 6.5A continuous current.
Battery Powered Systems
Provides efficient power conversion in portable devices thanks to its low 20mOhm maximum DC resistance.
Distributed Power Architectures
Functions as a point-of-load (POL) filter inductor to reduce ripple and noise in complex multi-rail systems.
