The WE-HCC series is available in 2 different core materials, Iron Alloy and Ferrite. Based on the application and requirements of the design it is always possible to find the right inductor for the application. The WE-HCC [Ferrite] is optimized for Power Supply circuits running at high switching frequencies with high ripple current. Due of the ferrite material the core losses are significant lower compare to Iron Powder material which are mainly used in High Current Inductors Designs. On the other hand, if it is required to have an excellent saturation behavior over temperature for filter circuits or for Power Supplies the WE-HCC [Iron] is a good choice as well.

The maximum operating temperature of the WE-HCC series is 125°C and able to handle 27A continues DC current without heat sink. Due of the design and used material on the WE-HCC series saturation current of 60A and more has be achieved which is more than enough for most power supply designs. It is getting more and more important for certain switching topologies (currents sense) to have tight DCR tolerances especially for multiphase designs. High Current Cube Inductors WE-HCC 2 www.we-online .c om more than you ex pe ct Electrical Characteristics WE-HCC [Iron Powder] • • • Filter range from 5MHZ-100MHz Current rating up to 27A without external cooling High saturation current up to 85A Excellent saturation characteristic over temperature Excellent filter behavior over DC current • Low RDC • • 3 The WE-HCC [Iron] is designed for extreme High Current Application where it is important to have an excellent saturation behavior. Applications which are used/designed for high temperature environment will benefit of this characteristic due of the core material which is very stable of temperature. Especially for high current filter application like e.g. motor drives, frequency converters and inverters, Class D amplifiers etc. The frequency response of the WE-HCC [iron] is stable over current as shown in graph. Blue curve shows the attenuation over frequency (4.7uH value) with no DC current, the red curve shows the attenuation with 11A DC load without any performance decrease. This series is perfect for high current filter application which needs a high attenuation in the frequency range from 5MHz-100MHz even without any impact over DC current.
