DFE21CCN_EL Series 5G Power Inductors

Murata Electronics’ DFE21CCN_EL series power inductors for 5G smartphones and other 5G applications are intended for use in DC/DC converters and power management circuitry. These components signify major enhancements in operational performance parameters compared to conventional inductors. They exhibit a 20% increase in saturation current (Isat) and a 50% reduction in DC resistance (RDC). These parameters help raise operational efficiency levels and enable downsizing system designs.

The DFE21CCN_EL series inductors feature specially developed metal materials and an optimized molding technique. The innovative L-shaped electrodes allow these components to reach considerably higher density levels. Under normal circumstances, if you look to improve the Isat value of a power inductor, then its RDC will suffer accordingly. Due to the technological advances the company has implemented from both process and structural perspectives, Murata has succeeded in improving Isat and RDC simultaneously with no necessary trade-offs.
