Bourns provides a recommended PCB layout and land pattern in their application notes and design guides. It's essential to follow these guidelines to ensure optimal performance, low thermal resistance, and minimal electromagnetic interference (EMI).
To minimize electromagnetic interference (EMI), keep the inductor at least 5 mm away from sensitive components, such as oscillators, antennas, or other inductors. You can also use shielding techniques, like copper tape or mu-metal, to contain the magnetic field.
Bourns recommends derating the voltage by 10-15% to ensure reliable operation. For the PWR163S-25-15R0J, the maximum allowable voltage is approximately 22.5V (85% of 26.5V). Always check the datasheet and application notes for specific derating guidelines.
The SRF can be calculated using the inductor's inductance, capacitance, and resistance values. For the PWR163S-25-15R0J, the SRF is approximately 150 MHz. To minimize the impact of SRF, ensure your operating frequency is below the SRF, and consider using a series resistor or capacitor to dampen resonant peaks.
The thermal resistance of the PWR163S-25-15R0J is approximately 30°C/W. This means that for every watt of power dissipated, the inductor's temperature will rise by 30°C. Ensure your design takes into account the inductor's thermal resistance to prevent overheating and premature failure.
