Bourns 2116-H Fixed Inductor Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Bourns 2116-H is a 220 µH unshielded toroidal inductor rated for 2.4 A continuous current with a maximum DC resistance of 120 mOhm. This through-hole component features a radial, horizontal mounting configuration with operating temperature range from -55°C to 105°C. The 2116-H has reached obsolete product status, making identification of functionally equivalent alternatives essential for ongoing design support and procurement continuity.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 2116-H is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Inductance value: 220 µH
• Inductance tolerance: ±15%
• Current rating: 2.4 A minimum
• DC resistance: 120 mOhm maximum
• Inductor type: Toroidal
• Shielding configuration: Unshielded
• Mounting type: Through Hole
• Package / case style: Radial, Horizontal (Open)
• Physical dimensions: 0.860" diameter, 0.450" maximum seated height
• Operating temperature range: -55°C to 105°C minimum

The 2116-H-RC meets all substitution criteria as a direct functional equivalent within the Bourns 2100 series.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 2116-H-RC is the direct substitute for the obsolete 2116-H. Both components are electrically and mechanically identical across all specified parameters. The primary distinction is product lifecycle status: the 2116-H is obsolete while the 2116-H-RC maintains active production status.

The 2116-H-RC offers improved regulatory compliance, meeting ROHS3 requirements compared to the non-compliant 2116-H. For new designs or ongoing procurement, the 2116-H-RC is the appropriate selection. Both parts maintain REACH Unaffected status and EAR99 export classification.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 2116-H-RC be used as a direct replacement for the 2116-H in existing designs?

A: Yes. The 2116-H-RC is electrically and mechanically identical to the 2116-H across all specified parameters, including inductance, current rating, DC resistance, physical dimensions, and operating temperature range. No circuit modifications are required.

Q: What is the difference between the 2116-H and 2116-H-RC?

A: The components are functionally equivalent. The primary differences are product status (2116-H is obsolete; 2116-H-RC is active) and RoHS compliance (2116-H-RC meets ROHS3 requirements while 2116-H does not).

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: The 2116-H is supplied in standard packaging, while the 2116-H-RC is supplied in bulk packaging. Both maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications.

Q: What mounting considerations apply to these inductors?

A: Both the 2116-H and 2116-H-RC are through-hole components with radial, horizontal mounting configuration. Physical dimensions are identical: 0.860" diameter with 0.450" maximum seated height. PCB layout and mounting procedures remain unchanged between parts.

Q: Are these inductors suitable for high-temperature applications?

A: Both components operate across the temperature range -55°C to 105°C, supporting standard industrial and commercial applications within this specification.
