  
ME3220 Series
Surface Mount Power Inductors
| New RoHS part numbers are shown. Lead was removed from internal connections.
The last three characters indicate tolerance, RoHS compliance, and packaging.
(View old data sheet.)
|
- Very small footprint, just 2.5 mm x 3.2 mm
- Saturation current rating up to 2.7 Amps; Low DC resistance for greater efficiency
- Specified by National Semiconductor for their LM2830 Buck Converter
- 21 inductance values from 1.0 to 100 µH
- RoHS-compliant. 260°C compatible. Matte tin over nickel over silver
terminations
- COTS Plus tin-silver-copper and tin-lead terminations available
- Samples of all values are available in Coilcraft Designer's Kit C386

When
ordering, please specify termination and packaging codes: e.g. ME3220-104KLC |
|
|
Termination: |
L = RoHS compliant matte tin over nickel over silver
Special order, added cost: T = RoHS tin-silver-copper (95.5/4/0.5) or
S = non-RoHS tin-lead (63/37). |
|
Packaging:
|
C = 7"
machine-ready reel
EIA-481 embossed plastic tape (2000 parts per full reel).
B = Less than full reel
In tape, not machine ready. To have a leader and trailer
added ($25 charge), use code letter C instead.
D = 13" reel, machine-ready
EIA-481 embossed plastic tape. Factory order only, not stocked (7000
parts per full reel). |

Inductance measured at 100 kHz,
0.1 Vrms, 0 Adc using Coilcraft SMD-A fixture in
Agilent/HP 4263B impedance analyzer. |
| 3 |
DCR measured on a micro-ohmmeter
and Coilcraft CCF858 test fixture. |
| 4 |
SRF measured using
Agilent/HP 8753D network analyzer and a Coilcraft
SMD-D fixture. Details |
| 5 |
Isat: DC current at which the
inductance drops 30% max from its value without current.
Details |
| 6 |
Irms: Current that causes a
40°C temperature rise from 25°C ambient.
Details |
| 7 |
Ambient temperature range: |
–40°C to +85°C with Irms current.
+85°C to +125°C with derated current Derating curve |
| 8 |
Storage temperature range: |
Component: –40°C to +125°C
Packaging: –55°C to +80°C |
| 9 |
Resistance to soldering heat: Three reflows at >217°C for 90 seconds (+260°C ±5°C for 20 – 40 seconds), allowing parts to cool to room temperature between. |
