ML338PWA Series
High-Reliability Power Inductors
ML338PWA Series features very low DCR and excellent current handling.
- High temperature materials allow operation in ambient temperatures up to 155°C.
- Soft saturation makes them ideal for VRM/VRD applications.
- Special construction allows it to pass vibration testing to 30 G and shock testing to 500 G.
- Tin-silver-copper over tin over nickel over silver terminations.

Notes
- When ordering, please specify testing code: e.g. ML338PWA224MLZ.
- Inductance tested at 100 kHz, 0.1 Vrms, 0 Adc.
- DCR measured on a micro-ohmmeter.
- SRF measured using Agilent/HP 4395A or equivalent.
- DC current at 25°C that causes the specified inductance drop 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.
