10A501

Overview

The Gowanda Electronics 10A501 is a fixed wirewound power inductor designed for high-current applications. It features an unshielded construction with a radial, horizontal cylinder package configuration. The component provides a nominal inductance of 5 µH and supports a maximum current rating of 10 A. Its low DC resistance is specified at 10 mOhm, ensuring efficient power handling with minimal resistive losses.

Feature Summary

• High current capability rated at 10 A
• Unshielded wirewound design
• Radial horizontal cylinder package

Applications

• Power supply filtering
• Choke circuits
• General purpose inductive applications

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix (e.g., LF) to confirm RoHS compliance status. Confirm that the unshielded variant meets electromagnetic interference requirements for the target system. Ensure the radial horizontal mounting style aligns with the PCB footprint design constraints.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 5 µH inductance value is required with a 10 A current capacity. The unshielded design may necessitate careful placement relative to sensitive components. Verify that the radial horizontal form factor fits the available board space and assembly orientation.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Gowanda 10A series of general-purpose inductors. The series includes variants with different inductance values such as 10A102 and 10A272. These components are manufactured for demanding environments including aerospace and defense sectors.

Replacement Considerations

Check equivalent parts within the same series like 10A102 or 10A272 if different inductance is acceptable. Verify physical dimensions and lead spacing against alternative suppliers to ensure mechanical compatibility.
