Selection Guidance

When selecting the VLS6045EX-2R2N, verify the rated current and DC resistance against your circuit's requirements, as these parameters depend on the specific operating conditions (e.g., temperature rise and saturation current). The ±30% tolerance is typical for power inductors; ensure your design accommodates this variation. For detailed electrical specifications, refer to the official TDK datasheet. This inductor is an excellent choice for engineers seeking a balance between size, performance, and EMI shielding.
