Wurth Electronics SMT flat wire high current inductors offer impressive energy density and low loss performance. Allied Component Works regularly addresses designs requiring advanced magnetics to achieve maximum density and efficiency in power electronics. The Wurth Electronics WE-HCI series are fixed inductors with a somewhat improbable design that has provided impressive performance in recent applications.

Relentless improvement continues in small switching buck regulators. Allied Component Works recently worked on a customer application requiring a typical 5V to 3.3V step down regulator.  The application might have supported a modular solution except for certain required power sequencing features.  With that we had an opportunity to work with a newer series of switching regulators (TLV62130) from Texas
