Monolithic Power Systems (MPS) MPL Surface-Mount Inductors

Monolithic Power Systems (MPS) MPL Surface-Mount Inductors are designed for optimal performance with MPS ICs, providing an easy, complete power solution in a wide range of specifications and sizes. These molded and semi-shielded modules feature an inductance range of 0.33μH to 22μH and a saturation current range of 0.8A to 64A. MPS MPL Surface-Mount Inductors are highly efficient with operating temperatures up to +155°C. These surface-mount inductors include four series: MPL-AT, MPL-AY, MPL-AL, and MPL-SE.

The MPL-AT, MPL-AY, and MPL-AL series are molded magnetic-shielded power inductors that provide soft saturation due to their molded design, delivering a stable high-temperature behavior. The molded construction also decreases the audible noise generated from alternating currents and pulse wave frequencies.

The MPL-SE series offers semi-shielded power inductors that offer a lower DCR and higher current capabilities. The modules are shielded by an external magnetic epoxy resin for better magnetic characteristics.

MPS MPL Surface-Mount Inductors are well-suited for applications ranging from power supplies to power converters.
