ST550PRT, ST563PRC
Power Inductor for Critical Applications
ST550PRT, ST563PRC feature excellent current handling for a part this size; low DCR.
- Shielded power inductors.
- Tin-silver over copper. Other terminations available at additional cost.
These shielded inductors were developed for multi-phase voltage regulators and are ideal for use in DC-DC converters, battery-powered devices and high current power supplies. Their flat wire construction ensures very low DC resistance and offers an excellent performance-toheight ratio. The materials used in these parts eliminate all thermal aging issues.
The ST550PRT is a high efficiency part that features very low core loss. The ST563PRC provides soft saturation and is unaffected by part temperature up to 125°C.
Refer to the comparison curves for L vs Current and ESR vs Frequency for performance differences.

Notes
- When ordering, please specify termination and screening codes: e.g. ST563PRC232MLZ.
- Inductance measured at 500 kHz, 0.1 Vrms, 0 Adc using a Coilcraft SMD-A fixture in an Agilent/HP 4284A LCR meter or equivalent.
- SRF measured on an Agilent/HP 8753ES.
- DC current at 25°C that causes a 30% (typ) inductance drop for ST563PRC and 20% (typ) inductance drop for ST550PRT from its value without current.
- Current that causes the specified temperature rise from 25°C ambient. This information is for reference only and does not represent absolute maximum ratings.
Termination:
- L = Tin-silver over copper.
- T = Tin-silver-copper (95.5/4/0.5). (Special order, added cost)
- S = Tin-lead (63/37). (Special order, added cost)
Screening:
- Z = Unscreened
- Y = Unscreened (SLDC Option A)
- W = Unscreened (SLDC Option B)
- H = Coilcraft CP-SA-10001 Group A
- G= Coilcraft CP-SA-10001 Group A (SLDC Option A)
- D = Coilcraft CP-SA-10001 Group A (SLDC Option B)
Custom screening also available.
