- 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
