15 µH wirewound in a 1007 footprint
The LBC2518T150K is a 15 µH unshielded wirewound inductor from Taiyo Yuden's LB, C Type series, packaged in a 1007 (2518 Metric) surface-mount footprint measuring 2.50 mm x 1.80 mm. Rated for 285 mA DC with a maximum DC resistance of 650 mOhm, this inductor suits low-power filtering and DC-DC converter output stages where board space is tight. Its self-resonant frequency of 23 MHz means the inductance holds up well into the low-MHz switching range, making it a fit for buck converters and EMI suppression in portable electronics.
Temperature range and operating environment
Rated for operation from -25°C to 105°C, the LBC2518T150K covers industrial and consumer temperature ranges but does not carry an AEC-Q200 automotive qualification — not intended for under-hood or engine-bay use. The unshielded construction means magnetic flux radiates from the core; keep sensitive analog traces or other inductors at least one package width away to avoid coupling.
