10 µH shielded wirewound — obsolete, but still spec'd into active BOMs
The Murata LQH2HPN100MG0L is a 10 µH shielded wirewound inductor in a 1008 (2520 Metric) footprint. It's rated for 490 mA continuous with a saturation current of 700 mA — the margin between the two is where the core starts to lose inductance, so a DC bias approaching 700 mA means the actual inductance has dropped below the ±20% tolerance band. The 876 mOhm max DCR is the main source of copper loss in the winding. At 490 mA, that's about 0.21 W of self-heating — fine for a 1008 package in still air, but if the board has adjacent hot parts or the ambient is near the 85°C ceiling, the temperature rise needs checking against the derating curve.
Lifecycle reality — obsolete, no official successor on record
Murata has marked the LQH2HPN100MG0L as obsolete. There is no listed successor order code from the manufacturer, so any replacement will require a parametric search — same 10 µH, same ±20% tolerance, same or lower DCR, and a saturation current that clears the circuit's peak current. For existing designs already qualified with this part, the obsolete status means last-time-buy inventory is the only channel. No stock-holding claim on this page.

The ferrite core and shielded construction keep magnetic flux from coupling into adjacent traces or other inductors in a dense layout. Surface-mount, supplied on tape and reel or cut tape — the reel quantity is the standard procurement unit for pick-and-place, but cut tape works for prototypes or short-run rework.
