series introduction
# IHLP2020CZER2R2M01 Product Series Introduction
## 1. Overview
The IHLP2020CZER2R2M01 belongs to a high - performance inductor product series. Inductors are fundamental passive electronic components that play a crucial role in various electrical and electronic circuits. They are used to store energy in a magnetic field when an electric current passes through them and can influence the behavior of electrical signals in a circuit, such as filtering, energy storage, and impedance matching.
## 2. Physical Characteristics
### 2.1 Dimensions
The "2020" in the product code indicates the package size. This inductor has a compact form factor, which is designed to fit into modern, space - constrained circuit boards. The standardized dimensions ensure compatibility with automated assembly processes, making it suitable for high - volume production. The small size also allows for more efficient use of board space, enabling designers to create more densely packed and miniaturized electronic devices.
### 2.2 Construction
The inductor is constructed using high - quality materials. The core material is carefully selected to provide optimal magnetic properties. It is designed to have low core losses, which is essential for high - efficiency operation. The windings are made of a suitable conductive material, typically copper, which offers low resistance and good electrical conductivity. The construction is also engineered to provide mechanical stability, ensuring that the inductor can withstand the rigors of the manufacturing process and normal operating conditions.
## 3. Electrical Specifications
### 3.1 Inductance
The "2R2" in the product code represents the inductance value. In this case, the inductor has an inductance of 2.2 μH (microhenries). Inductance is a measure of the ability of the inductor to store energy in its magnetic field. A 2.2 μH inductance value is commonly used in a variety of applications, such as power supply circuits, RF (radio frequency) circuits, and signal filtering circuits.
### 3.2 Tolerance
The "M" in the product code indicates the tolerance of the inductance value. For this inductor, the tolerance is ±20%. This means that the actual inductance value of the inductor can vary within 20% of the nominal 2.2 μH value. While a relatively wide tolerance, it is still suitable for many applications where precise inductance values are not critical.
### 3.3 Saturation Current
The inductor has a specified saturation current. Saturation occurs when the magnetic core of the inductor can no longer increase its magnetic flux density in proportion to the applied current. The saturation current of the IHLP2020CZER2R2M01 is designed to be high enough to handle the typical currents in its intended applications. This ensures that the inductor maintains its inductance value and performance even under relatively high - current conditions.
### 3.4 DC Resistance (DCR)
The DC resistance of the inductor is an important parameter. A low DCR is desirable as it reduces power losses in the form of heat generation. The IHLP2020CZER2R2M01 is engineered to have a relatively low DC resistance, which contributes to the overall efficiency of the circuit in which it is used.
## 4. Performance Advantages
### 4.1 High - Frequency Performance
This inductor series is designed to perform well at high frequencies. It has low parasitic capacitance and good self - resonant frequency characteristics. These properties make it suitable for use in RF circuits, where it can help in impedance matching and filtering of high - frequency signals.
### 4.2 Efficiency
Due to its low core losses and low DC resistance, the IHLP20
