Power Bead Inductor Products are Halogen-free

(Product News, 24 Jun 2009 )

In line with Pulse’s on-going initiative to comply with the Registration, Evaluation, Authorization and Restriction of Chemical (REACH) regulation under EC 1907/2006, the company has announced that its full line of power bead products, used in voltage regulators for computing applications and point-of-load (PoL) products, are now halogen-free.

Pulse’s halogen-free parts will be identified by the suffix HL, indicating that they comply with both halogen-free and lead-free standards. The first halogen-free series to be released was the PA0511, the most widely used power bead inductor series. Soon to follow will be high-efficiency coupled inductors for graphics and server applications. To request halogen-free parts, customers simply enter HL in place of NL as the part number suffix.

Pulse’s highly efficient, off-the-shelf power beads offer high performance for multi-phase buck regulator applications. Their low direct current resistance (DCR) minimizes inductor conduction losses while their low-loss ferrite cores minimize inductor switching losses. Plus, their small footprint enables flexibility in board layout. Power bead inductors come in through-hole and surface mount configurations for use in power supplies for desktop and notebook computers, servers, graphics cards, and PoL applications.
