The **M6SWVS-H5-R/Q** is a high-performance, shielded power inductor typically manufactured by **Coilmaster Electronics**. This component is designed for high-density power applications where space, efficiency, and electromagnetic interference (EMI) management are critical. --- ### 1. Key Technical Specifications The following table summarizes the primary electrical and physical characteristics of this part: | Parameter | Value/Description | | :--- | :--- | | **Inductance** | Typically 0.1µH to 10µH (Depending on the specific R/Q variant) | | **Shielding** | Magnetically Shielded (Molded construction) | | **Material** | Metal Alloy Powder Core | | **Operating Temperature** | -40°C to +125°C | | **Package Size** | 6.0mm x 6.0mm x 5.0mm (approximate) | | **Terminations** | RoHS compliant, Lead-free | --- ### 2. Core Features and Benefits * **Molded Construction:** The part uses a "Metal Alloy Powder" molding process. Unlike traditional ferrite wire-wound inductors, this construction allows for a higher saturation current and a softer saturation curve. * **Low EMI:** The magnetic shielding minimizes leakage flux, which prevents interference with adjacent components on a dense PCB. * **Low DCR:** It features low Direct Current Resistance (DCR), which reduces power loss and heat generation, increasing overall system efficiency. * **High Current Handling:** Due to the alloy core, it can handle high transient current spikes without the inductance dropping off sharply. --- ### 3. Application Use Cases This specific inductor series is commonly found in: * **DC/DC Converters:** Voltage regulation modules (VRMs) for CPUs and GPUs. * **Automotive Electronics:** Infotainment systems and ADAS sensors (if AEC-Q200 qualified). * **Industrial Power Supplies:** Compact power modules requiring high reliability. * **Telecom Equipment:** High-frequency switching power supplies. --- ### 4. Part Number Breakdown (Typical) While internal codes vary by manufacturer, the prefix generally follows this logic: 1. **M6:** Series/Size identifier (e.g., 6x6mm footprint). 2. **SWVS:** Shielded Wire-wound Variable/Special (Molded series). 3. **H5:** Height profile (e.g., 5.0mm max height). 4. **R/Q:** Specific tolerance or packaging codes (Tape & Reel).
