PGL6189.500HLT

Fixed Inductors Overview

The PGL6189.500HLT is a surface-mount power inductor manufactured by Pulse Electronics. It features an unshielded design with a nominal inductance of 50 nH and a tolerance of ±15%. The component has a maximum DC resistance of 40 uOhm and supports high current applications, with saturation currents reaching up to 148 A. The physical height is specified as 8 mm.

Fixed Inductors Feature Summary

• High current capability for demanding power delivery
• Unshielded construction for specific EMI management
• Low DC resistance for efficiency

Fixed Inductors Applications

• Voltage regulator modules (VRMs)
• Point-of-load (POL) converters
• CPU/GPU power stages

Fixed Inductors Procurement Notes

Verify the exact saturation current rating against the official datasheet, as sources vary between 80 A and 148 A. Confirm the package height specification matches the design constraint. Ensure the supplier provides the original manufacturer's documentation for quality assurance.

Fixed Inductors Selection Notes

Select this component when low inductance and high current handling are required. The unshielded type may require layout considerations for magnetic interference. Compare the thermal performance and current ratings against alternative shielded or non-shielded options from the same series.

Fixed Inductors Part Context

This part belongs to the PGL6189 series of high-current power bead inductors. The series offers a range of inductance values from 50 nH to 320 nH. The 'HLT' suffix typically denotes specific packaging or tape-and-reel configurations provided by the manufacturer.

Fixed Inductors Replacement Considerations

Check for direct substitutes within the PGL6189 series with different inductance values if electrical parameters need adjustment. Verify pin compatibility and mechanical dimensions before swapping with other manufacturers' high-current SMD inductors.
