This 80-page catalog includes specifications, design details, custom solutions, and designer kits for four major categories of inductors — surface-mount RF inductors, surface-mount power inductors, leaded RF inductors, and leaded power inductors. A glossary of terms, views of application-specific base designs, and technical data are provided. More than a dozen new products are featured. These include SMP molded power surface-mount inductors for power applications (both vertical mount and shielded designs) and SMRF surface-mount inductors for RF applications (both unshielded and shielded designs).
