10M150K Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The 10M150K is a 150 nH unshielded wirewound inductor manufactured by Gowanda Electronics, designed for RF applications requiring axial through-hole mounting. This molded component operates across a temperature range of -55°C to 125°C with a current rating of 1.2 A and maximum DC resistance of 100 mOhm. The part is currently active in production with 940 pieces available in stock. Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical and mechanical specifications are met, enabling procurement flexibility and supply chain continuity.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 10M150K is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters: inductance value (150 nH), inductance tolerance (±10%), current rating (minimum 1.2 A), maximum DC resistance (100 mOhm), Q factor at 25 MHz (38), self-resonant frequency (600 MHz), operating temperature range (-55°C to 125°C), mounting type (through hole), package configuration (axial), and physical dimensions (0.095" Dia x 0.250" L). The substitute part 1025-00K meets all these electrical and mechanical requirements, with a current rating of 1.23 A, which exceeds the minimum specification. Both parts share identical inductance, tolerance, DC resistance, Q factor, self-resonant frequency, temperature range, and physical dimensions.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the 10M150K and 1025-00K are active production components suitable for direct substitution in RF inductor applications. The 10M150K carries RoHS Not Applicable status and REACH Unaffected certification. The 1025-00K is RoHS non-compliant and also REACH Unaffected. Selection between these parts should be based on supply availability, packaging format (10M150K supplied in Tape & Reel; 1025-00K supplied in Cut Tape), and regulatory compliance requirements of the end application. Both parts are classified under ECCN EAR99 and HTSUS 8504.50.8000. The 1025-00K carries military qualification under MIL-PRF-M15305 and MS75083 series designations, which may be relevant for applications requiring military-grade components.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 1025-00K directly replace the 10M150K in my circuit?

A: Yes. Both inductors are electrically and mechanically equivalent across all critical parameters: 150 nH inductance, ±10% tolerance, 1.2+ A current rating, 100 mOhm maximum DC resistance, 38 Q factor at 25 MHz, 600 MHz self-resonant frequency, and identical physical dimensions in axial package configuration.

Q: What is the difference in packaging between these two parts?

A: The 10M150K is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format, while the 1025-00K is supplied in Cut Tape (CT) format. Both are through-hole axial components with identical dimensions and mounting compatibility.

Q: Does the 1025-00K's military qualification affect its use in commercial applications?

A: No. Military qualification (MIL-PRF-M15305, MS75083) indicates additional testing and quality assurance but does not restrict use in commercial applications. The part remains suitable for any application requiring the specified electrical and mechanical characteristics.

Q: Are there RoHS compliance differences between these parts?

A: Yes. The 10M150K is RoHS Not Applicable, while the 1025-00K is RoHS non-compliant. Applications requiring RoHS compliance should use the 10M150K. Both parts are REACH Unaffected.

Q: What is the significance of the current rating difference (1.2 A vs. 1.23 A)?

A: The 1025-00K's 1.23 A rating exceeds the 10M150K's 1.2 A specification, making it suitable for any application designed for the 10M150K. This represents a margin of compatibility rather than a limitation.
