What does the 220 marking mean?
The 220 marking commonly represents 22 microhenries. The first two digits are significant numbers and the final digit indicates the number of zeros. The actual inductance must still be confirmed through the approved specification.
Is this an EE40 transformer?
No. The pictured component is a two terminal through hole power inductor. The EE40 transformer caption in the promotional image is unrelated and should be removed.
Is every 220 inductor interchangeable?
No. Components with the same marking may have different rated current saturation current DCR dimensions pin spacing magnetic materials temperature ratings and frequency characteristics.
What information is required for customization?
Please provide the target inductance tolerance continuous current peak current permitted inductance drop maximum DCR switching frequency ripple current operating temperature dimensions PCB hole size pin spacing and annual demand.
What is the difference between rated current and saturation current?
Rated current is commonly limited by temperature rise during continuous operation. Saturation current is the current at which inductance decreases by an agreed percentage. Both limits must be evaluated.
Can the DCR be reduced?
Yes. Conductor size winding structure turn count and terminal design can be optimized. Lower DCR may require a larger body or a different balance between inductance and current capacity.
Is this a magnetically shielded inductor?
The enclosed construction is designed to reduce external magnetic flux compared with an open winding structure. Final EMI performance should be verified on the customer PCB.
Can the pin spacing be customized?
Yes. Pin diameter spacing length and terminal treatment can be customized according to the customer PCB drawing.
Can the product operate at high frequency?
Yes. The suitable operating frequency depends on magnetic material core loss winding loss current waveform and temperature rise. The actual switching frequency must be provided during development.
Can this product be used in automotive electronics?
An application specific version can be evaluated for automotive use. Temperature vibration thermal cycling traceability and qualification requirements must be defined before development.
Can Chipsen develop a replacement from a sample?
Yes. The sample can be evaluated for dimensions inductance DCR pins and construction. Actual circuit voltage current frequency ripple and thermal conditions are also required.
What is the MOQ?
The promotional image indicates an MOQ of 1000 pieces. Final MOQ depends on magnetic material conductor terminals customization complexity and packaging requirements.
Are the specifications on this page guaranteed?
No. They are typical engineering and purchasing references. Only values confirmed in the approved drawing product specification and validation documents are guaranteed for the final product.
