The 9.5 Ohm max DCR sets the I²R loss floor — at 140 mA the copper loss is roughly 186 mW, which must be absorbed by the 2424 package's thermal path to the board. The 1.1 MHz self-resonant frequency means this inductor stays inductive well above the switching frequency of a typical 100–500 kHz buck converter, so the core loss from AC ripple does not dominate the thermal budget. ## AEC-Q200 and the 125 °C ceiling Rated AEC-Q200, this inductor is qualified for automotive stress profiles — thermal shock, vibration, and humidity bias per the AEC-Q200 passive-component standard. AEC-Q200 Grade 1 (125 °C) means the part is tested to the full temperature band without derating the current below the 140 mA figure.","metaTitle":"Coilcraft LPS6235-335MRC Shielded Drum Core Inductor, 3.3 mH","metaDescription":"Coilcraft LPS6235-335MRC shielded drum core inductor, 3.3 mH, 140 mA, AEC-Q200.
