Fixed Inductors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific manufacturer part number RL-1256-3-100 against official Renco Electronics documentation to confirm electrical parameters such as 100 µH inductance and 34 mΩ DCR. Ensure the procurement source provides valid traceability for the unshielded radial through-hole configuration. Cross-reference the -40°C to 130°C operating temperature rating with system thermal requirements before finalizing orders.

Fixed Inductors Selection Notes

Select this component when a 100 µH inductance at 10 kHz is required with a minimum saturation current of 13.2 A. The unshielded design necessitates careful PCB layout to mitigate electromagnetic interference. Verify that the through-hole radial package fits the mechanical constraints and that the 34 mΩ maximum DC resistance aligns with efficiency targets. Confirm compatibility with the specified wide temperature range for the intended environment.
