PQ2618 HIGH-CURRENT POWER INDUCTOR

3.3µH SMD flat-wire design for demanding power stages

LF-PQ2618-3R3-74A is an engineering-led IKP design for industrial power, energy storage, charging and high-current DC/DC. The current definitions and validation status stay visible so your team can compare the part without confusing thermal and saturation ratings.

48A and 74A describe different limits

48A is the thermal-current target under the stated temperature-rise method. 74A is the Isat30 target, where inductance reduction is evaluated at 25°C. Neither value should be transferred to a new cooling, waveform or ambient condition without validation.

MEASURED ENGINEERING EVIDENCE

Pulsed L-I response remains near 3µH at 74A

A DPG10 pulse test dated 5 December 2024 recorded 3.00µH at 74A and 2.24µH at 80A. This is useful design evidence, not a production certificate; final qualification uses the agreed sample and test plan.

DESIGN-IN FIT

Where the PQ2618 platform is most relevant

01

Industrial power & UPS

High-current DC/DC stages, output filtering and power modules where copper loss and saturation margin need to be reviewed together.

02

Energy storage & solar

PCS, inverter and bidirectional converter stages with defined ripple, transient, cooling and mechanical constraints.

03

Charging power

Charging modules and isolated/non-isolated converter stages; automotive qualification is not claimed for this A0 design.

04

Server & telecom power

48V/50V distribution and high-density power conversion where SMD mounting and winding loss are design drivers.

CONFIGURATION PATH

Use the drawing as a starting point, not a fixed boundary

The PQ2618 series workbook includes alternative winding configurations. IKP can review inductance, DCR, thermal current, saturation margin, terminals and land pattern against your actual operating point.
