VLS252015ET-1R0N

Fixed Inductors Overview

The VLS252015ET-1R0N is a fixed surface-mount inductor manufactured by TDK Corporation. It features a shielded drum core wirewound construction with ferrite material, housed in a compact 1008 (2520 metric) package measuring 2.50mm x 2.00mm x 1.50mm. The component provides an inductance of 1 µH with a tolerance of ±30%. It supports a maximum DC current of 1.75 A and a saturation current of 1.95 A. The device exhibits a maximum DC resistance of 82 mOhm and operates within a temperature range of -40°C to 105°C.

Fixed Inductors Feature Summary

• Shielded drum core design minimizes magnetic interference
• Compact 1008 surface mount footprint for space-constrained layouts
• High saturation current capability for power applications

Fixed Inductors Applications

• DC-DC converter output filtering
• Power supply input stages
• General purpose signal processing circuits

Fixed Inductors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix '-CA' against the manufacturer's official documentation to confirm compliance with RoHS3 standards and REACH regulations. Confirm that the part status remains acceptable for new designs, as previous notices indicated potential Not Recommended for New Design (NRND) classifications for this series. Ensure the selected packaging type matches the required production volume and handling specifications.

Fixed Inductors Selection Notes

Select this component when a low-profile shielded inductor is required for high-current power paths. The 1.75 A rated current and 1.95 A saturation current make it suitable for moderate power density applications. Consider the 82 mOhm DCR for efficiency calculations. Verify that the 1 MHz test frequency aligns with the target application's switching requirements.

Fixed Inductors Part Context

This component belongs to the VLS series of commercial-grade fixed inductors from TDK. The series utilizes wirewound technology on ferrite cores to achieve high Q-values and low noise characteristics. The VLS252015ET variant specifically targets applications requiring robust shielding and compact dimensions within the 1008 package size.

Fixed Inductors Replacement Considerations

Check for direct substitutes within the VLS series or other TDK shielded inductor lines that match the 1 µH value and 1008 footprint. Verify that any replacement maintains the same saturation current and DCR specifications to ensure circuit performance parity.
