Rated for 220 mA DC with a saturation current of 200 mA — the inductance holds within ±20% tolerance up to the saturation knee, making it suitable for power rail smoothing in portable or space-constrained designs. Maximum DC resistance of 4.5 Ohm defines the I²R conduction loss at full rated current, a factor in thermal budget for low-voltage rails. ## Self-resonant frequency and operating range Self-resonant frequency is 7.3 MHz, measured at 100 kHz test frequency — above this point the inductor behaves capacitively, so the usable filtering band stays below ~1-2 MHz for typical buck or boost converters. Shielded ferrite core construction reduces radiated EMI, a practical advantage when the inductor sits near sensitive analog or RF traces on the same board. ## Package dimensions and board integration Supplied in strip packaging, compatible with pick-and-place assembly for medium-volume production runs.","metaTitle":"Coilcraft LPS5015-224MRC Shielded Power Inductor, 220 µH","metaDescription":"Coilcraft LPS5015-224MRC 220 µH shielded drum core inductor, 220 mA rated, 200 mA saturation, 4.5 Ohm DCR, 5.00 mm footprint, active production.","metaKeywords":null},"attributes":{"series":null,"packageCase":null,"mountingType":null,"rohsStatus":null,"productStatus":"Active","categoryPath":["Inductors & Chokes"],"specifications":{"Mfr":"Coilcraft","Type":"Drum Core","Series":"LPS5015","Package":"Strip","Ratings":"-","Features":"-","Q @ Freq":"-","Shielding":"Shielded","Tolerance":"±20%","Inductance":"220 µH","Mounting Type":"Surface Mount","Package / Case":"Nonstandard","Product Status":"Active","Material - Core":"Ferrite","lifecycle_stage":"unknown","Size / Dimension":"0.197\\\" L x 0.197\\\" W (5.00mm x 5.00mm)","DC Resistance (DCR)":"4.5Ohm Max","Current Rating (Amps)":"220 mA","Height - Seated (Max)":"0.059\\\" (1.50mm)","Operating Temperature":"-40°C ~ 125°C","Supplier Device Package":"-","Frequency - Self Resonant":"7.3MHz","Current - Saturation (Isat)":"200mA","Inductance Frequency - Test":"100 kHz"}},"commercial":{"minOrderQty":null,"leadTime":null,"referencePrice":"$1.5000","stockQuantity":0,"priceTiers":null},"links":{"datasheetUrl":"https://cdn.icboms.com/0e72ddff79e6671b10ec1374708c6a39.pdf","sourceUrl":null},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"What is the saturation current for LPS5015-224MRC and why does it matter?","answer":"The saturation current (Isat) is 200 mA — above this level the inductance drops sharply as the ferrite core saturates.
