Product details

560 nH shielded power inductor for DC-DC rail filtering

The Murata DFE18SANR56ME0L is a 560 nH shielded power inductor from the DFE18SAN series, built on a metal-alloy core that handles 2.2 A continuous with a DCR ceiling of 84 mOhm. The saturation current floor is 3 A, so the inductor holds its inductance well into overload before the core rolls off — useful for a buck converter that sees transient spikes above the steady-state load.

0603 footprint and board-fit constraints

The shielded construction contains the magnetic field within the package, so adjacent traces on a dense board see less EMI coupling than an unshielded drum-core inductor would allow.

Temperature grade and operating envelope

The ±20% tolerance on the 560 nH nominal value is typical for power-grade inductors; the actual inductance at the rated 2.2 A will be lower due to DC bias, but the 3 A saturation floor ensures the inductance drop stays controlled under the full load current.

Frequently asked questions

What is the DFE18SANR56ME0L's saturation current and why does it matter?

The saturation current (Isat) is 3 A. Above this current the inductance drops sharply as the metal-alloy core saturates. The 2.2 A continuous rating leaves margin below Isat, so the inductor maintains its inductance value under steady-state load and only rolls off during transient spikes.
