Bourns 2115-V 180µH Toroidal Inductor Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Bourns 2115-V is a 180µH unshielded toroidal inductor rated for 2.6A continuous current with a maximum DC resistance of 110mOhm. This through-hole component operates across the temperature range of -55°C to 105°C and is part of the 2100 series inductor family. The 2115-V is currently classified as obsolete, making identification of active equivalent parts essential for ongoing production and design continuity.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the 2115-V is determined by strict equivalence across the following electrical and mechanical parameters:

• Inductance value: 180µH with ±15% tolerance
• Current rating: 2.6A minimum
• DC resistance: 110mOhm maximum
• Shielding configuration: Unshielded
• Core type: Toroidal
• Mounting: Through-hole radial vertical orientation
• Physical dimensions: 0.860" diameter x 0.450" width
• Operating temperature range: -55°C to 105°C

The 2115-V-RC meets all these criteria and is classified as an active product, making it the direct functional equivalent for applications currently using the obsolete 2115-V.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 2115-V-RC is the direct substitute for the obsolete 2115-V. Both components share identical electrical specifications, physical dimensions, and thermal operating ranges. The primary distinction is product status and regulatory compliance: the 2115-V-RC is an active product with ROHS3 compliance, whereas the 2115-V is obsolete and RoHS non-compliant. For new designs or production continuity, the 2115-V-RC is the appropriate selection. Both components carry identical ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8504.50.4000) classifications and are unaffected by REACH regulations.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 2115-V-RC be used as a direct replacement for the 2115-V?

A: Yes. The 2115-V-RC is electrically and mechanically identical to the 2115-V across all specified parameters: 180µH inductance, 2.6A current rating, 110mOhm maximum DC resistance, unshielded toroidal construction, and identical physical dimensions. The primary difference is that the 2115-V-RC is an active product with ROHS3 compliance.

Q: What is the difference between the 2115-V and 2115-V-RC packaging?

A: The 2115-V is supplied in standard packaging, while the 2115-V-RC is supplied in bulk packaging. Both maintain the same radial, vertical (open) through-hole configuration and physical dimensions.

Q: Are there any compliance differences between these parts?

A: The 2115-V-RC is ROHS3 compliant, whereas the 2115-V is RoHS non-compliant. Both are REACH unaffected and carry the same ECCN and HTSUS classifications.

Q: Will the 2115-V-RC work in existing PCB designs using the 2115-V?

A: Yes. The 2115-V-RC maintains identical through-hole mounting configuration, lead spacing, and physical footprint as the 2115-V, allowing direct PCB compatibility without layout modifications.

Q: Why is the 2115-V classified as obsolete?

A: The 2115-V has been superseded by the 2115-V-RC, which offers the same electrical and mechanical performance with improved regulatory compliance status.
