The **MHO+56FCD-R** is a specific part number typically associated with **SMD (Surface Mount Device) Power Inductors**, often used in automotive or high-reliability industrial power management systems. Below is a breakdown of the electronic characteristics and specifications typical for this component series. --- ### 1. General Specifications This part belongs to a high-current, shielded inductor family. Here are the primary technical parameters: | Feature | Specification (Typical) | | :--- | :--- | | **Component Type** | Shielded Power Inductor | | **Inductance** | 5.6 µH (indicated by the '56' code) | | **Tolerance** | ±20% (Standard for this series) | | **Mounting Type** | SMD / SMT | | **Shielding** | Magnetically Shielded (Low EMI) | ### 2. Physical Construction The "FCD" designation usually refers to the specific package size and construction style: * **Core Material:** Ferrite core, which provides high efficiency and low core losses at high frequencies. * **Shielding:** The magnetic shield prevents electromagnetic interference (EMI) from affecting surrounding components on the PCB. * **Terminals:** Lead-free (RoHS compliant) construction with tin-plated solder pads. ### 3. Key Performance Metrics | Parameter | Description | | :--- | :--- | | **DCR (DC Resistance)** | Very low, typically measured in milliohms (mΩ) to minimize power loss and heat generation. | | **Isat (Saturation Current)** | The current level at which inductance drops by a specific percentage (usually 30%). | | **Irms (Rated Current)** | The continuous current that causes a specific temperature rise (usually ΔT = 40°C). | | **Operating Temp** | Typically rated for -40°C to +125°C. | ### 4. Common Applications Due to its shielded nature and high current capability, the MHO+56FCD-R is commonly found in: * **DC-DC Converters:** Used as energy storage elements in buck or boost regulators. * **Automotive Electronics:** Power supplies for infotainment, ADAS, or ECU modules. * **Industrial Power:** High-density power supplies for telecommunications. * **Noise Filtering:** Used in LC filters to smooth output voltage ripples. --- ### 5. Part Number Decoding (Typical) * **MHO:** Series identifier (Manufacturer specific). * **56:** Inductance value (5.6 µH). * **FCD:** Package size/form factor code. * **R:** Packaging type (usually signifies Tape & Reel).
