TAIYO YUDEN optimized the core shape and electrode structure of the conventional inductor design by means of a unique sleeveless square-core winding that eliminated all wasted space and thickened the lead wire inside the inductor to achieve the lowest possible DC resistance. As a result, we developed the compact, high-efficiency BRL3225 chip inductor with the industry's highest current rating in the EIA 1210 form factor, AND providing optimal inductance and DC resistance values.

Applications include digital cameras, portable games, hard disk drives and other high-current-use devices.
