Enhanced Power Inductors for Automotive Applications: A Breakthrough in Passive Component Technology

2 min read

Murata Manufacturing Co., Ltd, a leading manufacturer of passive components, has recently introduced the DFE2MCPH_JL series of automotive-grade power inductors. These new inductors are available in values of 0.33µH and 0.47µH and have been specifically designed for use in automotive powertrain and safety equipment.

The DFE2MCPH_JL series offers significant performance improvements compared to the existing products in the Murata DFE2MCAH_J0 series. For example, the 0.33µH part features a 38% reduction in DC resistance, decreasing to 18 mOhm, and a 31% increase in rated current to 5.1 A for the same temperature rise. Additionally, the rated current for a specified inductance drop is an impressive 64% higher at 6.9 A. These power inductors are capable of withstanding voltages up to 40V and operating within a temperature range of -40°C to +155°C with current derating.

The DFE2MCPH_JL series utilizes advanced metal alloy, demonstrating Murata’s expertise in material and manufacturing technology. These features make the inductors well-suited for demanding automotive applications such as ADAS and IVI systems, both of which are rapidly expanding markets in the automotive industry.

The DFE2MCPH_JL series stands out for its high DC current rating, low power dissipation, and high impulse voltage rating, making them ideal for low-loss filtering and energy storage in power converter applications. Their compact size not only saves space but also reduces material usage, making them an efficient choice for automotive applications.

Murata plans to expand the inductance value range from 0.1 µH to 4.7µH in the future to meet the evolving needs of the market and broaden the scope of automotive applications. These innovative inductors also have potential applications in automotive infotainment and comfort systems, as well as in medical equipment (excluding implantable devices).
