Line Extension LE Type (Performance Effective) ETQP4M***KF* Series Automotive Power Inductors

Panasonic, a worldwide leader in Inductor Products, announces the expansion of the LE Type (Performance Effective) ETQP4M***KF* Series of Power Inductors for Automotive Applications.   The new ETQ-P4M470KFN Power Inductor provides exceptional large current support, high heat resistance, and high vibration resistance.  At 6.0x6.4x4.8mm, the ETQ-P4M470KFN is a surface mount Power Inductor that is part of the industry’s smallest class of SMT Inductors and meets the market demands for smaller automotive ECU’s (Electronic Control Unit) enabling them to be directly mounted on engines while achieving excellent heat and vibration resistance. 

The compact and highly reliable surface mount ETQ-P4M470KFN improves the reliability of power circuits while contributing to the reduction of environmental impact by saving space in power circuit mounting areas. Panasonic’s ETQ-P4M470KFN Power Inductor offers large current support 2.4A, DC current which causes a temperature rise of 40K.  Parts are soldered by reflow on multilayer PWB with high heat dissipation performance.  Note: Heat radiation constant is approx. 36 K/W measured. The ETQ-P4M470KFN provides high heat resistance of 150°C/2000 hours and vibration resistance of 5 Hz to 2 kHz/4.4 G, making it compatible with mechatronics.
