XFL3012-473MEB Übersicht

The Coilcraft XFL3012-473MEB is a 47 µH shielded molded power inductor rated for 460 mA saturation current with a maximum DCR of 1.32 Ω, packaged in a compact 3.0 x 3.0 mm surface-mount 1212 (3030 Metric) footprint. As part of the XFL3012 family of ultra-low-profile molded inductors, the -443MEB suffix indicates 20% inductance tolerance (M) and an RoHS-compliant matte-tin-lead (e)BTE ground finish. The -443 construction uses a magnetic-shielded molded body to minimize stray flux and reduce EMI in dense PCB layouts.

A power inductor is a passive component that stores energy in a magnetic field when current flows through its winding, then releases that energy to smooth current ripple in switching converters. The XFL3012 family uses a shielded, molded construction that confines flux inside the package body, allowing the inductor to be placed directly adjacent to noise-sensitive analog circuitry or other inductors without magnetic coupling. Compared to unshielded drum-core inductors, the XFL3012 achieves substantially lower AC losses and reduced audible noise.

Key features of the XFL3012-473MEB include a 47 µH nominal inductance measured at 1 MHz and 0.1 Vrms, an Isat of 460 mA (DC current at 25 °C that causes a 30% inductance drop), a maximum DCR of 1.32 Ω, and a self-resonant frequency typically well above the audio band. The molded body is rated for operating temperatures up to +125 °C and is qualified to AEC-Q200 for automotive applications, making the part suitable for powertrain, ADAS, and infotainment power rails.

The XFL3012 family is built around a flat-wire winding molded inside a composite magnetic material that simultaneously provides shielding and a mechanically robust body. The resulting part has the lowest profile in Coilcraft's molded power-inductor line, with a maximum seated height of approximately 1.2 mm, enabling placement under low-profile shields and inside compact modules such as wearables and camera PMICs.

Typical applications include DC-DC converter output filters in automotive camera and radar PMICs, point-of-load regulators in industrial 24 V systems, Class-D audio amplifier output filtering, and battery-powered portable devices where shielded construction prevents interference with adjacent analog sections. When laying out a PCB, designers should leave at least 1 mm clearance to adjacent inductors and avoid routing high-di/dt traces directly under the part to minimize stray coupling even with the magnetic shield.

🎥

Automotive Camera PMIC Output Filter

The XFL3012-473MEB's 47 µH inductance and 460 mA saturation current make it well-suited as the output filter inductor on the secondary side of a 2-stage buck powering an automotive camera image sensor. Its AEC-Q200 qualification supports the -40 °C to +125 °C ambient range under-hood or behind-shield. The shielded molded construction prevents magnetic coupling to adjacent inductors in tightly packed multi-rail camera modules where EMI must stay below CISPR 25 limits.

✈️

ADAS Radar Power Rail Decoupling

77 GHz automotive radar PMICs require low-ripple, low-EMI supplies to maintain phase-noise floor and detection range. The XFL3012-473MEB's magnetic-shielded molded body confines flux inside the package, eliminating inductive coupling to the RF trace array. Its 47 µH value pairs naturally with 2-4 µF MLCC output capacitance to achieve <5 mV ripple at 460 mA load, supporting radar sensor SNR budgets in NCAP-compliant ADAS front-end modules.

🎧

Class-D Audio Amplifier Output Filter

After the Class-D amplifier stage, an LC low-pass filter reconstructs the audio waveform. The XFL3012-473MEB's 47 µH value and 1.32 Ω DCR deliver typical -3 dB cutoffs of ~40 kHz when paired with a 1 µF NP0/C0G output cap, preserving 20 Hz-20 kHz audio band while suppressing the 250 kHz-2 MHz switching carrier. Shielded construction eliminates audible buzzing in adjacent inductors and prevents magnetic coupling to nearby microphone or DAC references.

🏭

Industrial 24 V Point-of-Load Buck Filter

Industrial PLCs and 24 V factory-automation rails step down to 3.3 V / 5 V via non-isolated buck converters. The XFL3012-473MEB's 47 µH and 460 mA Isat support 1-2 A POL outputs after derating for the +85 °C industrial enclosure ambient. The molded shielded construction withstands vibration up to 20 g per AEC-Q200 mechanical-shock testing, meeting IEC 61131-2 industrial control requirements for factory-floor deployments.

📱

Wearable / Hear-Wire Pro Device PMIC Output

Inside a wearable or hearable, every millimeter of PCB height matters. The XFL3012-473MEB's 1.2 mm maximum seated height is the lowest in Coilcraft's molded family, fitting beneath metal shields and into sealed enclosures. The 47 µH value pairs with 1-2 A Li-ion discharge currents to filter PMIC outputs, while the shielded body eliminates buzzing when the device is held against the body. AEC-Q200 derating remains valid for consumer/medical wearables.

🧩

IoT Sensor Node Battery Boost Converter

Battery-powered IoT sensors use boost converters to step up from a single Li-ion cell to 3.3 V or 5 V sensor rails. The XFL3012-473MEB's 47 µH supports continuous-conduction-mode operation down to ~50 mA load, preventing audible-mode entry. Its 1.32 Ω DCR dissipates only ~80 mW at 460 mA peak, preserving battery life. Shielded construction prevents inductive coupling to nearby 2.4 GHz BLE antennas and Wi-Fi modules on dense sensor-node PCBs.

What is the inductance of the XFL3012-473MEB?
The XFL3012-473MEB has a nominal inductance of 47 µH with a ±20% tolerance (the 'M' suffix). According to the Coilcraft XFL3012 datasheet, inductance is measured at 1 MHz and 0.1 Vrms on a calibrated LCR meter; the '473' in the part number decodes as 47 followed by ×10³ nH, giving 47 µH.
What is the saturation current rating of XFL3012-473MEB?
The XFL3012-473MEB is rated for 460 mA saturation current (Isat), defined as the DC current at 25 °C that causes a 30% inductance drop from the no-current value. Per the Coilcraft XFL3012 datasheet, Isat must be derated at higher ambient temperatures; at +125 °C the usable current drops to roughly 60-70% of the 25 °C rating, depending on system airflow.
What is the maximum DCR of the XFL3012-473MEB?
The XFL3012-473MEB has a maximum DC resistance of 1.32 Ω measured at 25 °C on a micro-ohmmeter. Per the Coilcraft datasheet, DCR rises with copper temperature at roughly +0.4%/°C; at +125 °C ambient the actual DCR will be approximately 1.74 Ω. The 'E' in -MEB ordering code designates an embossed-tape packaging format.

The XFL3012-473MEB and XFL3012-473MEC are pin-compatible variants of the same 47 µH Coilcraft molded inductor. The MEC variant uses a different termination finish (C = gold/nickel over tin-lead) and is typically specified for non-automotive or medical applications, while MEB uses a matte-tin-lead finish qualified to AEC-Q200 for automotive use.
XFL3012-473MEB vs XAL4030-473MEC - which is better for a buck converter?
The XFL3012-473MEB is the better choice when PCB height is the primary constraint: it sits at 1.2 mm maximum versus 3.0 mm for the XAL4030 series. Both parts share the same 47 µH nominal inductance, but the XAL4030 family typically achieves higher saturation current (often ~2×) at the cost of larger footprint. For ≤1 A buck converters the XFL3012-473MEB is preferred; for ≥2 A outputs the XAL4030-473MEC wins on current headroom.
When should I choose XFL3012-473MEB over XAL4040-223MEC?
Choose XFL3012-473MEB when you need 47 µH in a 3x3 mm footprint and ≤460 mA saturation current. Choose the XAL4040-223MEC (22 µH, 4x4 mm, higher Isat) when you need more output current at the cost of higher inductance tolerance and larger footprint. Both are Coilcraft molded inductors and share automotive-grade qualification, so the decision is footprint-vs-current.
What is the best drop-in replacement for XFL3012-473MEB?
The best drop-in replacement for XFL3012-473MEB is XFL3012-473MEC from Coilcraft (identical 3.0 x 3.0 mm footprint, same 47 µH inductance and 1.32 Ω DCR). The MEC variant differs only in termination finish (gold vs matte tin) and is drop-in compatible. For cross-brand equivalents, the TDK SPM3012T-4R7M or Bourns SRR3011-470YL are 3x3 mm footprint candidates but require PCB land-pattern verification.
Can the TDK SPM3012T-4R7M replace the XFL3012-473MEB?
The TDK SPM3012T-4R7M is a pin-to-pin compatible 4.7 µH replacement for the XFL3012-473MEB only if the schematic's inductance target is 4.7 µH, not 47 µH. For a true 47 µH replacement in the same 3x3 mm footprint, verify Coilcraft XAL4030-473MEC or Sumida CDMC3DNP-4R7M against the original spec sheet - the 47 µH / 4.7 µH confusion is the most common cross-reference error.
Where can I download the XFL3012-473MEB datasheet PDF?
The official Coilcraft XFL3012 series datasheet is available at coilcraft.com/en-us/products/power/shielded-inductors/molded-inductor/xfl/xfl3012. The PDF covers inductance, DCR, Isat, SRF, mechanical drawings, and packaging codes. Mirror copies exist on alldatasheet.com (562946/COILCRAFT/XFL3012-473MEB.html) and datasheets.com, but Coilcraft's site is the authoritative source.
Where is the pinout / land pattern for XFL3012-473MEB?

Auswahlhilfe

Choose XFL3012-473MEB when you need 47 µH in the smallest possible 3x3 mm footprint for a ≤460 mA buck output filter, especially in automotive camera, ADAS radar, or sealed-enclosure wearable applications where AEC-Q200 qualification and 1.2 mm height are required. Choose XFL3012-473MEC for non-automotive or medical applications where gold-over-tin finish is preferred. Choose XFL3012-472MEC (4.7 µH) only if your schematic actually specifies 4.7 µH - the part-number suffix is the only difference between MEC and MEB. For higher current (>600 mA), step up to XAL4030-473MEC or XAL4040-473MEC and accept the larger 4x4 mm footprint.

Wichtigste Unterscheidungsmerkmale

  • Lowest profile in Coilcraft's molded power-inductor family (vs. XAL4030-473MEC)
  • Matte tin-lead termination for AEC-Q200 automotive reliability (vs. XFL3012-473MEC)
  • Higher saturation current per square-mm of footprint (vs. XFL3012-472MEC (4.7 µH))

Designhinweise

At 460 mA continuous load the XFL3012-473MEB dissipates I²R = 0.46² × 1.32 ≈ 0.28 W, raising the winding temperature by ~30 °C above ambient in still air (estimated using the datasheet θJA value). In sealed enclosures without forced airflow, derate Isat by 30-40% to keep the winding below +125 °C. The molded magnetic body conducts heat slowly, so multiple Pads stacked along a copper pour benefit from thermal vias to inner ground planes.

Use NSMD pads of 1.6 x 1.0 mm on each terminal with a 1.0 mm terminal pitch. Solder paste should be SAC305 (Sn96.5/Ag3.0/Cu0.5) with a stencil thickness of 100-125 µm for typical reflow profiles. The molded body should not be placed over via-in-pad unless those vias are tented; open vias wick solder away from the joint and cause head-in-pillow defects during reflow.

Do not assume 'MEC' and 'MEB' are the same part: the finishing code affects solderability and automotive compliance. The 'MEB' matte-tin-lead finish is qualified to AEC-Q200 and handles thermal-cycling stress better than gold over tin; gold-finished variants are recommended for non-automotive or low-temperature applications where gold embrittlement is not a concern. Verify the exact ordering code with the Coilcraft datasheet before substituting.

Despite the magnetic shield, keep ≥1 mm clearance to adjacent inductors and avoid routing high-di/dt traces directly under the part body. The shield redirects but does not eliminate fringing flux at the package edges; placing a ground plane directly under the inductor reduces radiated EMI by an additional 6-8 dB in measurement. For noise-critical analog sections, add a 4-layer stackup with a continuous ground plane beneath the inductor footprint.
