  MALVERN, PA, Sep 19 (MARKET WIRE) -- 
Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. (NYSE: VSH) today launched a new IHLP(R)
low-profile, high-current inductor in the 3232 case size. Featuring an
8.26 mm by 8.79 mm footprint and ultra-low 3.0 mm profile, the compact
IHLP-3232CZ-11 offers high efficiency with maximum DCR down to 1.62
milliohms and a wide range of standard inductance values from 0.22
through 33.0 microhenries.

    With a frequency range up to 1 MHz, the new IHLP-3232CZ-11 serves as a
high-performing, space- and power-saving solution for voltage regulator
module (VRM) and DC/DC converter applications in end products including
next-generation mobile devices; notebooks, desktop computers, servers,
graphic cards, portable gaming systems, personal navigation systems,
personal multimedia devices, and automotive systems; low-profile,
high-current power supplies and point of load (POL) converters;
distributed power systems; and field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs). 

    The IHLP-3232CZ-11 offers an inductance range from 0.22 to 33.0
microhenries, a saturation current range from 2.5 A up to 24.0 A, a heat
rating current range from 2.6 A to 36.0 A, and maximum DCR from 1.62 to
205.0 milliohms.

    The new inductor handles high transient current spikes without hard
saturation. Packaged in an RoHS-compliant, 100 % lead (Pb)-free shielded,
composite construction that reduces buzz noise to ultra-low levels, the
device is specified for an operating temperature range of - 55 degrees C
to + 125 degrees C, with high resistance to thermal shock, moisture,
mechanical shock, and vibration.

    Samples and production quantities of the new inductor are available now,
with lead times of 10 weeks for large orders. Follow Vishay's IHLP power
