CDS-5532-204L300

Overview

The CDS-5532-204L300 is a shielded surface-mount power inductor from Same Sky, designed for high-current applications. It features a composite core and a closed magnetic circuit to minimize electromagnetic interference. The component has a nominal inductance of 20 µH with a tolerance of ±20%. It supports a saturation current of 3.0 A and a RMS current rating of 2.8 A. The device utilizes a 5.5 mm x 5.5 mm x 3.2 mm package with solder termination.

Feature Summary

• Shielded construction reduces magnetic flux leakage
• Composite core material ensures stable performance
• Closed magnetic circuit design minimizes EMI

Applications

• DC-DC converter output filtering
• Point-of-load (POL) modules
• Power supply input stages

Procurement Notes

Verify the manufacturer designation as Same Sky, formerly CUI Devices, to ensure accurate sourcing. Confirm that the specific suffix L300 corresponds to the required current ratings and packaging format. Request the official datasheet to validate electrical parameters against system requirements before finalizing procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when space constraints require a compact 5.5 mm footprint. Ensure the application current does not exceed the 2.8 A RMS or 3.0 A saturation limits. Consider the shielded design if electromagnetic compatibility is critical within the assembly layout.

Part Context

This part belongs to the CDS series of shielded power inductors. The series offers various inductance values and current ratings within standardized dimensions. It is intended for general-purpose power management circuits requiring reliable inductive components.

Replacement Considerations

Check for direct substitutes from the same CDS series with identical dimensions but different inductance or current values. Verify pinout compatibility and thermal characteristics when considering alternatives from other manufacturers.
