Substitute Part Grouping Explanation
Substitution eligibility for the 1008HS-683EKFS is determined by the following critical parameters:
Primary Matching Criteria:
- Inductance value: 68 µH (tolerance range: 61.2 µH to 74.8 µH at ±10%)
- Package / Case: 1008 (2520 Metric)
- Core material: Ferrite
- Shielding configuration: Unshielded
- Mounting type: Surface Mount

Engineering Selection Recommendations
Substitution Feasibility:
The NLV25T-680J-EF is a functional equivalent for the 1008HS-683EKFS based on matching inductance value, package configuration, core material, and shielding characteristics. Both components are ROHS3 compliant and operate within compatible environmental specifications.
Critical Design Considerations:
The NLV25T-680J-EF exhibits a 70 mA current rating, which is 20 mA lower than the original 1008HS-683EKFS specification. Circuit designs operating at or near 90 mA must be re-evaluated to confirm operation within the TDK part's 70 mA maximum rating.
The DC resistance differential (9.5 Ω versus 16.6 Ω maximum) introduces a 7.1 Ω increase. Applications sensitive to resistive losses or thermal dissipation must account for this parameter change.
Compliance Status:
The NLV25T-680J-EF maintains active product status with TDK Corporation, ensuring long-term supply availability and manufacturing continuity. The component is ROHS3 compliant and REACH affected, meeting current regulatory requirements.
The extended operating temperature range (-40°C to 105°C) of the TDK part provides additional thermal margin compared to the original specification (-40°C to 85°C).
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Can the NLV25T-680J-EF directly replace the 1008HS-683EKFS without circuit modification?
A: Direct replacement is possible only if the circuit operates at or below 70 mA. Applications requiring the full 90 mA rating of the original part require design re-evaluation. The increased DC resistance (16.6 Ω versus 9.5 Ω) must be verified against circuit thermal and performance requirements.
Q: What is the significance of the inductance tolerance difference (±10% versus ±5%)?
A: The TDK part's ±5% tolerance provides tighter inductance control, which may improve circuit performance in applications sensitive to inductance variation. This represents an improvement over the original specification.
Q: Are the physical dimensions compatible between these parts?
A: Both components use the 1008 (2520 Metric) package. The 1008HS-683EKFS measures 0.115" L × 0.110" W × 0.083" H (seated), while the NLV25T-680J-EF measures 0.098" L × 0.079" W × 0.075" H (seated). The TDK part is physically smaller and will fit within the same PCB footprint.
Q: What is the impact of the higher self-resonant frequency (15 MHz versus 12 MHz)?
A: The higher SRF of the TDK part extends the usable frequency range and may reduce parasitic resonance effects in high-frequency applications. This represents a performance advantage for circuits operating near the original part's SRF limit.
Q: Is the NLV25T-680J-EF available in the same packaging format?
A: The NLV25T-680J-EF is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format, while the original 1008HS-683EKFS packaging format is not specified in the provided data. Verify packaging compatibility with your procurement and assembly processes.
Q: What compliance certifications apply to the substitute part?
A: The NLV25T-680J-EF is ROHS3 compliant, REACH affected, and classified under ECCN EAR99 with HTSUS code 8504.50.8000. These certifications meet current regulatory requirements for electronic component distribution and use.
