TDK Corporation (President: Kenhiro Sakamoto) has introduced the **CLF6045NI-D** series of power inductors designed for automotive power circuits, with mass production starting in February 2015. These inductors are specifically engineered to meet the demanding conditions found in engine compartments, where temperatures can range from -55°C to +150°C. This wide operating temperature range ensures reliable performance in even the harshest environments.
The CLF6045NI-D series is AEC-Q200 compliant, meeting industry standards for reliability and quality in automotive applications. TDK has incorporated advanced material technology, using high-heat-resistant components and a welded-free structure to enhance durability. The unique structural design not only improves mechanical strength but also supports use in critical systems such as engine control modules (ECM), airbags, ABS, and headlights.
Manufactured on an automated, streamlined production line, these inductors deliver consistent quality and high reliability. The compact size of the CLF6045NI-D measures 6.3 × 6.0 × 4.5 mm, making it ideal for space-constrained designs. Additional sizes ranging from 5mm to 12.5mm will be available in the future, offering a broad product lineup to suit various application needs.
Key features include:
- **Wide Temperature Range**: Operates reliably from -55°C to +150°C
- **High Reliability**: Enhanced mechanical strength through innovative design
- **Compliance**: Meets AEC-Q200 standards
- **Versatile Applications**: Suitable for ECUs, airbag systems, ABS, and more
The rated current is defined based on two criteria: a change in inductance of less than 30% of the nominal value, or a temperature rise of 40°C. This ensures optimal performance under varying load conditions. Whether you're working on engine control systems or safety-related electronics, the CLF6045NI-D series provides a robust and efficient solution.
