The level of continuous DC current that can be passed through the inductor. This DC current level is based on a maximum temperature rise of the inductor at the maximum rated ambient temperature. The rated current is related to the inductor's ability to minimize the power losses in the winding by having a low DC resistance. It is also related to the inductor's ability to dissipate this power loss in the windings. Thus, the rated current can be increased by reducing the DC resistance or increasing the inductor size. For low frequency current waveforms the RMS current can be substituted for the DC rated current. The rated current is not related to the magnetic properties of the inductor (Also see Incremental Current and Saturation Current)
maximum allowable current a motor can receive without exceeding its thermal limit.
The input current of the equipment as declared by the manufacturer.
The input current as specified by the manufacturer.
Rated current, or peak current, is the MOSFET's ability to handle high current surges for a very short duration (1-2 microseconds).
The maximum allowable continuous current that the motor can handle without exceeding its temperature rating at ambient temperature (usually 25 C). It is the rated current at which the holding torque has been determined.
A current which can be continuously supplied to a load. The value of the current which can be supplied varies depending on the operating ambient temperature and installation method. For details, refer to the installation method and the output derating characteristics.
