Key Terms

aec-q200, dc/dc converters, rohs-compliant, lead (pb)-free, +3 more

7 terms

aec-q200 regulatory

"The AEC-Q200 qualified devices provide reliable performance up to +165 °C"

AEC‑Q200 is an industry standard that defines stress tests and reliability requirements for passive electronic components (such as resistors, capacitors and inductors) used in vehicles. For investors, an AEC‑Q200 qualification signals that parts are designed and tested to survive harsh automotive conditions—like temperature swings, vibration and humidity—making products more likely to win automotive contracts and reduce warranty or field‑failure risk.

dc/dc converters technical

"designed for DC/DC converters, noise suppression, and filtering"

A dc/dc converter is an electronic device that changes one direct-current voltage level to another—raising or lowering the voltage so electronic components and batteries get the right power. For investors, its efficiency, size and reliability matter because better converters improve product battery life, reduce heat and material costs, and can make devices more competitive, affecting manufacturing costs, margins and market adoption.

rohs-compliant regulatory

"Packaged in a 100 % lead (Pb)-free shielded, composite construction... RoHS-compliant, halogen-free"

RoHS-compliant means a product meets rules that limit or ban certain hazardous chemicals in electrical and electronic equipment, ensuring the item does not contain those restricted substances above set limits. For investors this matters because compliance affects a company's ability to sell in regulated markets, avoid fines and recalls, and manage production costs and supply-chain risks—similar to a food product following a recipe that omits banned ingredients to stay sellable and safe.

lead (pb)-free regulatory

"Packaged in a 100 % lead (Pb)-free shielded, composite construction"

Lead (Pb)-free means a product, material, or manufacturing process avoids using the heavy metal lead beyond legally allowed trace levels, typically by substituting safer metals or different formulations. For investors, it signals compliance with health and environmental rules, lower legal and cleanup risk, and access to regulated markets—similar to replacing a risky ingredient in a recipe to meet safety rules—while potentially affecting costs, suppliers, or product performance.

mosfet technical

"1200 V SiC MOSFET power modules in the industry-standard SOT-227 package"

A MOSFET is a tiny electronic switch used to control the flow of electricity in chips and circuits, functioning like a faucet that turns current on or off and adjusts how much passes through. Investors watch MOSFETs because their performance, cost and availability affect product power efficiency, manufacturing yields and supply chains for industries from consumer electronics to electric vehicles, which in turn can influence companies’ margins and growth prospects.

sot-227 technical

"1200 V SiC MOSFET power modules in the industry-standard SOT-227 package"

An investigational drug candidate identified by the internal code “sot-227,” used by researchers and companies to track a specific compound through laboratory studies and clinical trials. For investors, such a code signals a potential future product whose clinical results, regulatory approvals, or safety issues can significantly change a company’s valuation—think of it as a prototype being tested; positive test results can boost prospects, while failures create downside risk.

inductance technical

"Offering inductance values from 0.24 µH to 4.70 µH"

Inductance is a property of an electrical component or circuit that resists changes in the flow of electric current, similar to how a heavy flywheel resists sudden changes in speed. It matters to investors because inductance influences a product’s performance, energy efficiency and heat generation in power systems and electronics, which can affect manufacturing cost, reliability, regulatory compliance and market competitiveness.

Space-Saving Devices Offer High Temperature Operation to +165 °C, Increase Efficiency With Inductance Values Up to 4.70 µH and DCR Down to 6.6 mΩ

MALVERN, Pa., Feb. 04, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. (NYSE: VSH) today introduced four new power inductors in the 2.0 mm by 1.6 mm by 1.2 mm 0806 and 3.2 mm by 2.5 mm by 1.2 mm 1210 case sizes. The commercial IHLL-0806AZ-1Z and IHLL-1210AB-1Z and Automotive Grade IHLP-0806AB-5A and IHLP-1210ABEZ-5A achieve the same performance as the next-smallest competing inductor in 11 % (1210) and 64 % (0806) smaller footprints, while offering higher operating temperatures, wider range of inductance values, and lower DCR for increased efficiency.

Offering inductance values from 0.24 µH to 4.70 µH and typical DCR down to 6.6 mΩ, the terminals of the IHLL-0806AZ-1Z and IHLL-1210AB-1Z are plated on the bottom only, enabling a smaller land pattern for more compact board spacing. The terminals of the IHLP-0806AB-5A and IHLP-1210ABEZ-5A are plated on the bottom and sides, allowing for the formation of a solder fillet that adds mounting strength against high mechanical shock, while simplifying solder joint inspection. The AEC-Q200 qualified devices provide reliable performance up to +165 °C, which is 10 °C higher than the closest competing composite inductor, and typical DCR down to 15.0 mΩ.

Delivering improved performance over ferrite-based technologies, all four devices feature a robust powdered iron body that completely encapsulates their windings — eliminating air gaps and magnetically shielding against crosstalk to nearby components — while their soft saturation curve provides stability across the entire operating temperature and rated current ranges. Packaged in a 100 % lead (Pb)-free shielded, composite construction that reduces buzz to ultra low levels, the inductors offer high resistance to thermal shock, moisture, and mechanical shock, and handle high transient current spikes without saturation.

RoHS-compliant, halogen-free, and Vishay Green, the Vishay Dale devices released today are designed for DC/DC converters, noise suppression, and filtering in a wide range of applications. The IHLP-0806AB-5A and IHLP-1210ABEZ-5A are ideal for automotive infotainment, navigation, and braking systems; ADAS, LiDAR, and sensors; and engine control units. The IHLL-0806AZ-1Z and IHLL-1210AB-1Z are intended for CPUs, SSD modules, and data networking and storage systems; industrial and home automation systems; TVs, soundbars, and audio and gaming systems; battery-powered consumer healthcare devices; medical devices; and telecom equipment; and precision instrumentation.
