Product overviewTDK Corporation has expanded its family of flat wire inductors with the EPCOS ERUC23 coupled inductor series (ordering code family B82559S*). These SMD coupled inductors incorporate two windings sharing a single magnetic core and are available in six types. The series is AEC‑Q200-qualified and RoHS-compliant and designed for automatic pick-and-place surface mounting. Footprint: 26.8 x 13.8 mm; heights vary between 13.7 mm and 14.0 mm depending on type. Specified operating temperature range: -40 °C to +150 °C. DC resistance of a single winding ranges from 0.82 mΩ to 1.85 mΩ depending on the type.
Applications- Dual‑phase buck and boost converters and buck/boost converters
- Hybrid converters for 48 V to 12 V (flying capacitor converters)
Main features and benefits- High saturation currents per type
- Low DC resistance per winding
- Compatible with automatic pick-and-place (surface mount)
- Reduced ripple and improved efficiency in a compact package
- Space saving compared with two separate chokes
