Bourns 2116-V Fixed Inductor Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Bourns 2116-V 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 operates across the temperature range of -55°C to 105°C and is part of the 2100 series product line.

The 2116-V has reached obsolete status, making it necessary to identify active equivalent parts for ongoing production and maintenance applications. Substitute parts must maintain identical electrical specifications and mechanical compatibility to ensure direct replacement without circuit redesign.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 2116-V 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 method: Through Hole
• Package form: Radial, Vertical (Open)
• Physical dimensions: 0.860" Dia x 0.450" W
• Operating temperature range: -55°C to 105°C

The substitute part 2116-V-RC meets all these criteria and is manufactured by Bourns Inc. within the same 2100 series, ensuring mechanical and electrical interchangeability.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 2116-V-RC is the direct active equivalent for the obsolete 2116-V. Both parts are manufactured by Bourns Inc. and share identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters.

The primary distinction between these parts is product status and regulatory compliance. The 2116-V-RC carries ROHS3 compliance, whereas the 2116-V is RoHS non-compliant. For applications subject to RoHS requirements or environmental regulations, the 2116-V-RC is the appropriate selection. Both parts maintain REACH Unaffected status and EAR99 export classification.

The 2116-V-RC is available in bulk packaging with higher inventory levels (2555 pcs) compared to the 2116-V (780 pcs), supporting production continuity and supply chain reliability.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 2116-V-RC be used as a direct replacement for the 2116-V?

A: Yes. The 2116-V-RC is electrically and mechanically identical to the 2116-V 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-V and 2116-V-RC?

A: The primary differences are product status and regulatory compliance. The 2116-V is obsolete and RoHS non-compliant, while the 2116-V-RC is active and ROHS3 compliant. All electrical and mechanical specifications are identical.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: The 2116-V is supplied in standard packaging, while the 2116-V-RC is supplied in bulk packaging. Both maintain the same through-hole radial, vertical (open) form factor and physical dimensions.

Q: Does the RoHS3 compliance of the 2116-V-RC affect circuit performance?

A: No. RoHS3 compliance relates to material composition and environmental standards, not electrical performance. The 2116-V-RC delivers identical inductance, current handling, and DC resistance characteristics.

Q: What mounting considerations apply to both parts?

A: Both the 2116-V and 2116-V-RC are through-hole components with radial, vertical (open) mounting. They share identical physical dimensions of 0.860" diameter by 0.450" width and mount identically on PCBs designed for the 2100 series toroidal inductors.
