DRQ125-150-R - Eaton

DRQ125-150-R Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the recommended PCB layout and spacing for optimal performance?
  Coiltronics recommends a minimum of 1.5mm spacing between the inductor and other components, and a PCB layout that minimizes parasitic inductance and capacitance. A 4-layer PCB with a solid ground plane is also recommended.
• How does the inductor perform in high-temperature environments?
  The DRQ125-150-R is rated for operation up to 125°C, but derating may be necessary for temperatures above 100°C. Coiltronics recommends consulting their application notes for high-temperature operation.
• What is the recommended soldering profile for this inductor?
  Coiltronics recommends a soldering profile with a peak temperature of 260°C, a dwell time of 10-15 seconds, and a cooling rate of 4°C/second. Consult the Coiltronics soldering application note for more details.
• Can I use this inductor in a high-vibration environment?
  The DRQ125-150-R is designed to withstand moderate vibration, but extreme vibration may affect its performance. Coiltronics recommends consulting their vibration testing application note for more information.
• How does the inductor behave in a high-frequency switching environment?
  The DRQ125-150-R is designed for high-frequency switching applications, but the core material may exhibit some loss at very high frequencies (>1MHz). Coiltronics recommends consulting their high-frequency application note for more information.
