Inductor used on TAS5630BDKD eval board TAS5630PHD2EVM

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TAS5630B, TAS5624A

We found the output filter inductors  on the TAS5630BDKD class D development board to be superior to the custom inductors that we ordered against the TI specification supplied to us earlier this year.  We have verified that our 1st prototype that has much higher than expected idle current draw with the custom inductors. Direct replacement of the inductors with the parts from the demo board (same orientation as the prototype) reduces the current to match the device specified idle current draw.

I have sourced some additional Class D amplifier inductors from Coilcraft for evaluation. They have appear to be near identical specifications to the parts on the demo board. Does TI  have a coilcraft recommendation?

As time is of the essence on this project we are requesting assistance with the sourcing of the inductors on the demo board. Please help at the earliest convenience.

  • Hi, John,

    Unfortunately, the inductors we used on the TAS5630B EVM were obsoleted by the vendor.

    On the follow-on part, TAS5624A, we used some CoilCraft inductors. i bet they would be a good choice for the TAS5630B as well - it's part number MA5173-AE.
