TDK Corporation has developed a series of miniature, low-profile, thin-film metal power inductors featuring up to twice the rated current and half the DC resistance of comparable ferrite inductors. The high saturation magnetic flux density of the material used in the TFM series inductors provides the excellent DC bias characteristics needed for inductors used in power circuits. The TFM series has excellent mounting stability characteristics and can be mounted to general-purpose land patterns due to the standard product shape and terminal structure.
