VLS6045EX-100M

VLS6045EX-100M is a TDK VLS-EX series shielded wirewound power inductor — 10 µH ±20%, rated current 3.4 A (the smaller of 3.9 A Isat and 3.4 A Itemp per TDK), 0.047 Ω typical DCR, 6.0 × 6.3 × 4.5 mm SMD, -40 to +105 °C. The 6 mm square footprint with 3.4 A rating is the selection point: high current density for buck converters in space-constrained power stages. Selection advice: the H suffix is the AEC-Q200 automotive grade (-40 to +125 °C) — the plain EX code here is the industrial version. Check the TDK delivery specification for the exact suffix you order, since distributor packaging variants (-CA) may carry different design-in status. The shielded drum core keeps EMI contained in dense layouts. Evidence: TDK VLS6045EX-H datasheet (characteristics table) and distributor listings confirm 10 µH, Isat 3.9 A, Itemp 3.4 A, 0.047 Ω DCR and 6.0 × 6.3 × 4.5 mm.
