10 µH, 710 mA — shielded power inductor for automotive and industrial DC-DC
The Murata LQH2HPZ100MGRL is a 10 µH shielded wirewound inductor in the LQH2 series, rated for 710 mA continuous current with a saturation floor of 700 mA. The 672 mOhm max DCR sets the I²R conduction loss budget — at full rated current the self-heating adds roughly 0.34 W, which the 1008 (2520 Metric) ferrite-core body must sink into the board copper.
Shielded ferrite core — EMI containment in tight layouts
The shielded construction contains the magnetic flux within the ferrite shell, reducing radiated EMI into adjacent traces or nearby inductors in a multi-phase converter. This matters when the inductor sits close to a sensitive RF front-end or a high-impedance analog node — the 30 MHz self-resonant frequency is well above the typical 1–4 MHz switching frequency of automotive DC-DC converters, so the inductor behaves as a near-ideal inductor across the switching band. The 1008 (2520 Metric) footprint with a 1.00 mm seated height fits into low-profile power modules and space-constrained ECU boards. The ±20% tolerance is typical for power-grade ferrite inductors — the inductance tolerance is wide enough that the DC bias characteristic (inductance roll-off vs current) must be checked against the converter's minimum inductance requirement at the peak load current.
