Product details

47 µH shielded wirewound for power rail filtering

The Murata LQH3NPN470MMEL is a 47 µH shielded wirewound inductor in the LQH3 series, rated for 380 mA continuous current with a saturation current matching the rated current at 380 mA. The self-resonant frequency of 5 MHz means this inductor maintains its inductive impedance up through the low-MHz range — above that the parasitic capacitance dominates and the part behaves as a capacitor. That makes it a fit for DC-DC converter output filters and power supply ripple suppression where the switching frequency stays below 2-3 MHz.

Shielded construction and footprint

The ferrite core and full magnetic shielding reduce radiated EMI to adjacent traces — useful when the inductor sits near sensitive analog or RF circuitry on the same board. Inductance is tested at 1 MHz, and the ±20% tolerance is typical for power-grade ferrite-core inductors — the saturation characteristic is soft, so the effective inductance drops gradually as current approaches the 380 mA Isat rating rather than collapsing abruptly.

Frequently asked questions

What is the inductance and current rating of LQH3NPN470MMEL?

It is a 47 µH shielded wirewound inductor rated for 380 mA continuous current, with the same 380 mA saturation current. DC resistance is 984 mOhm max, and the self-resonant frequency is 5 MHz.

What package does LQH3NPN470MMEL use?

It comes in a 1212 (3030 Metric) surface-mount package measuring 3.00 mm x 3.00 mm with a 1.50 mm seated height. The ferrite core is fully shielded to reduce EMI.
