[quote="OptikonIf your application is relatively low frequency I think that would be just fine, your effective current rating will double but you will also HALVE your inductance. So you would need to put 4 of your .5A, 2.2u together to get a 2.2u, 1A coil. These things are relatively cheap, I would buy what you need unless you are in a crunch.[/quote]
WTF? I think you have contradicted yourself. Placing four in parallel would QUARTER the inductance, wouldn't it? because then you are essentially placing two 1.1u inductors in parallel, therefore halving that!
So if i buy two 4.4u and place them in parallel, that should work?
