15HC-10

Overview

The Delevan 15HC-10 is a high-current radial power inductor designed for PCB mounting. It features an inductance of 10 µH with a ±10% tolerance and a maximum DC resistance of 10 mΩ. The component supports a maximum DC current of 28 A and operates within a temperature range of -55°C to +125°C. Measuring 14.22 mm in length and 6.35 mm in diameter, it utilizes a phenolic core and axial leads for through-hole installation.

Feature Summary

• High current handling capability suitable for power filtering applications
• Low DC resistance design minimizes power loss and heat generation
• Robust molded construction ensures mechanical stability in harsh environments

Applications

• Power supply input/output filtering
• DC-DC converter chokes
• High-frequency noise suppression in power circuits

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet version for exact electrical tolerances and thermal ratings before integration. Confirm that the radial lead spacing matches the target PCB footprint dimensions. Ensure the operating environment temperature remains within the specified -55°C to +125°C range to maintain performance integrity and longevity.

Selection Notes

Select this component when high current capacity and low impedance are critical requirements. Compare against alternative series if space constraints differ significantly from the standard radial cylinder form factor. Validate that the 10 µH value aligns with the circuit's switching frequency and ripple current specifications.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Delevan HC Series, which specializes in high-current filter chokes. The series is characterized by robust leaded constructions intended for demanding power electronics.
