8532R-13L - API Delevan

8532R-13L Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the recommended PCB land pattern for the 8532R-13L?
  The recommended PCB land pattern for the 8532R-13L can be found in the API Delevan application note AN-013, which provides detailed guidelines for PCB layout and footprint design.
• How does the 8532R-13L perform in high-temperature environments?
  While the datasheet specifies an operating temperature range of -40°C to +125°C, API Delevan recommends derating the inductor's current rating by 1.5% per degree Celsius above 80°C to ensure reliable operation in high-temperature environments.
• Can the 8532R-13L be used in high-vibration applications?
  Yes, the 8532R-13L is designed to withstand vibrations up to 10g peak acceleration, making it suitable for use in high-vibration environments. However, it's essential to ensure proper PCB mounting and secure the inductor to prevent mechanical stress.
• What is the self-resonant frequency (SRF) of the 8532R-13L?
  The SRF of the 8532R-13L is approximately 250 MHz, which is not explicitly stated in the datasheet. This information can be obtained by contacting API Delevan's technical support or through application notes.
• Is the 8532R-13L compatible with lead-free soldering processes?
  Yes, the 8532R-13L is compatible with lead-free soldering processes, including RoHS and WEEE compliant soldering. However, it's essential to follow the recommended soldering profile and temperature guidelines to ensure reliable assembly.
