# IHLP1616BZER1R0M01 Product Series Introduction
## 1. Overview
The IHLP1616BZER1R0M01 belongs to a high - performance inductor product series. Inductors are fundamental passive electronic components that play a crucial role in a wide range of electronic circuits, and this particular series is designed to meet the demanding requirements of modern electronic systems.
## 2. Physical Characteristics
### Dimensions
The "1616" in the model number indicates the physical size of the inductor. It has a compact form factor, which is highly beneficial for applications where space is at a premium. The standardized dimensions ensure easy integration into printed circuit boards (PCBs) and compatibility with various surface - mount technology (SMT) assembly processes.
### Package
It comes in a robust and reliable package that provides excellent mechanical protection. The package is designed to withstand the rigors of the manufacturing process, including soldering and handling, as well as the environmental conditions during the product's operational life.
## 3. Electrical Specifications
### Inductance
The "1R0" in the model number represents an inductance value of 1.0 μH (microhenries). Inductance is a measure of the inductor's ability to store energy in a magnetic field when an electric current flows through it. This specific inductance value makes the IHLP1616BZER1R0M01 suitable for a variety of applications, such as power conversion and filtering circuits.
### Tolerance
The "M" in the model number indicates a tolerance of ±20%. This means that the actual inductance value of the inductor can vary within 20% of the nominal value (1.0 μH). While this may seem like a relatively wide tolerance, it is acceptable for many general - purpose applications where precise inductance values are not critical.
### DC Resistance (DCR)
The inductor has a relatively low DC resistance. Low DCR is important because it reduces power losses in the form of heat when a direct current passes through the inductor. This results in higher efficiency in power - related applications, which is especially crucial in battery - powered devices where energy conservation is a top priority.
### Saturation Current
The IHLP1616BZER1R0M01 is specified with a certain saturation current. Saturation occurs when the magnetic core of the inductor can no longer store additional magnetic energy, and the inductance value starts to decrease significantly. A higher saturation current rating means that the inductor can handle larger currents without experiencing a substantial drop in inductance, making it suitable for high - power applications.
## 4. Performance Advantages
### High - Frequency Performance
This product series exhibits excellent high - frequency performance. It can effectively filter out high - frequency noise and interference in electronic circuits, which is essential for maintaining the signal integrity in communication systems, such as wireless routers and mobile devices. The inductor's design minimizes parasitic effects at high frequencies, ensuring stable operation.
### Low EMI (Electromagnetic Interference)
The IHLP1616BZER1R0M01 is engineered to generate low levels of electromagnetic interference. This is important in modern electronic devices, as excessive EMI can cause malfunctions in nearby electronic components and violate electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) standards. By reducing EMI, the inductor helps to ensure the reliable operation of the entire electronic system.
## 5. Application Areas
### Power Supplies
In switching power supplies, the IHLP1616BZER1R0M01 can be used as a filter inductor. It helps to smooth out the output voltage and current, reducing ripple and improving the overall power quality. It is also suitable
