The DR354 series inductors are available in a wide range of inductance values to meet the needs of just about any circuit. They feature a compact chip design with a low-seated profile as low as 0.040 inches (1.02 mm) above the circuit board. They are suitable for high-density circuit board designs where space is at a premium. Their small size makes them especially useful in hand-held gear of all types.

Depending on the specific model, the DR354 series inductors feature an inductance range from 1.6 to 4700 nH, with a DCR from 0.030 to 4.3 Ohms maximum over a maximum current rating from 0.700 to 0.230 A. They are compatible with extreme temperature environments, ranging from –40 to +130°C.

The chip inductors come in packages as small as 0.044 inch (1.12 mm) wide by 0.071 inch (1.80 mm) long and stand 0.040 inch(1.02 mm) high. Their flat-top surface makes them compatible with high-speed pick-and-place assembly equipment, and they are also suitable for high-temperature soldering. Custom designed DR354 series chip inductor packages can be specified to meet unique circuit requirements. The DR354 series inductors are priced from $0.11 each in typical production volumes. Lead-time is stock to six weeks. Volume OEM pricing is available on request.
