15683C

Overview

The Murata Power Solutions 15683C is a fixed wirewound inductor designed for through-hole mounting. It features an unshielded radial vertical cylinder package with dimensions of 16.80 mm diameter and 21.30 mm maximum seated height. The component provides an inductance of 68 µH with a tolerance of ±10%. It supports a maximum DC current of 3.33 A and exhibits a maximum DC resistance of 70.3 mΩ. The unit operates within a temperature range suitable for general electronic applications.

Feature Summary

• Unshielded wirewound construction for magnetic field transparency
• Radial vertical cylinder leaded package for PCB mounting
• High current handling capability up to 3.33 A

Applications

• Power supply filtering circuits
• DC-DC converter input/output stages
• General-purpose energy storage in power electronics

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix and availability status directly with Murata Power Solutions or authorized distributors. Confirm that the requested quantity aligns with manufacturer packaging standards. Ensure the procurement channel is authorized to guarantee component authenticity and traceability. Check for any recent lifecycle updates or obsolescence notices before finalizing orders.

Selection Notes

Select this component when high current capacity and low DC resistance are required in a radial form factor. The unshielded design allows for flexible placement without magnetic interference concerns but requires consideration of external magnetic sensitivity. Verify that the PCB footprint accommodates the 16.80 mm diameter and 21.30 mm height constraints.

Part Context

This part belongs to the 15 series of fixed inductors from Murata Power Solutions, which offers various inductance values and current ratings in a standardized radial package. The 15683C specifically targets applications needing robust current handling compared to lower-current variants in the same series.

Replacement Considerations

No public confirmed substitute part numbers are available in the provided documentation. Cross-referencing requires matching inductance (68 µH), current rating (≥3.33 A), DC resistance (≤70.3 mΩ), and physical dimensions.
