Key Features

  • 4500 uH nominal inductance, +/-15% at 0 A DC
  • 1.25 A rated DC current with 2700 uH minimum inductance at rated current
  • Holds 0.8 Ls at 0.9 A DC
  • 2.64 ohm maximum DC resistance
  • Toroid construction for EMI/RFI filtering and switching power supply energy storage
  • Minimum 0.5 in long leads for P.C. board mounting
  • Operating range -20°C to 85°C; storage -20°C to 105°C
  • RoHS and REACH compliant

1540M20 is a 1540 Series high current toroid inductor with 4500 uH of nominal inductance and a 1.25 A rated DC current. The manufacturer describes it as an RF choke and heavy duty hash choke, and the series is designed for EMI/RFI filtering and energy storage in switching power supplies.

Nominal inductance is 4500 uH +/-15%, measured at 0 A DC. At the rated DC current of 1.25 A, the 1540M20 maintains a minimum inductance of 2700 uH, and it reaches 0.8 Ls (80% of nominal inductance) at 0.9 A DC. Maximum DC resistance is 2.64 ohms, which helps designers estimate copper losses at their operating current.

The part measures 1.81 in (46 mm) maximum for Dimension A and 0.75 in (19 mm) maximum for Dimension B, with a minimum Dimension C of 0.75 in (19 mm). Typical lead diameter is 0.01 in (0 mm), and shipping weight is 0.2 lbs (0.09 kg). Among the 1540 Series parts sharing the 1.81 in Dimension A body, 1540M20 offers the highest inductance and lowest rated current, with that size group spanning 125 to 4500 uH.

Leads are a minimum of 0.5 in long for P.C. board mounting. The series is specified for an operating temperature range of -20°C to 85°C and a storage temperature range of -20°C to 105°C. The 1540M20 is RoHS compliant and REACH compliant.

Ideal For

  • EMI/RFI filtering
  • Energy storage inductors for switching power supplies
  • High current DC filter chokes
  • P.C. board mounted power circuits
