Bourns 2206-H Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Bourns 2206-H is a 27 µH shielded toroidal inductor rated for 9.8 A continuous current with a maximum DC resistance of 11 mOhm. This through-hole component features an iron powder core and is housed in a radial, horizontal open package measuring 0.950" diameter by 0.550" height. The 2206-H operates across a temperature range of -55°C to 105°C and is specified at 1 kHz inductance frequency.

The 2206-H carries an obsolete product status, making equivalent substitutes necessary for new designs and ongoing production requirements. Direct functional replacements are available within the same Bourns 2200 series.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the 2206-H is determined by strict equivalence across all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. The substitute part must maintain identical inductance value (27 µH), current rating (9.8 A), DC resistance specification (11 mOhm maximum), core material (iron powder), shielding configuration, package geometry, and operating temperature range. Packaging format differences (tape and reel versus bulk) do not affect functional compatibility in circuit applications.

The 2206-H-RC qualifies as a direct substitute based on complete parameter alignment across all specified electrical characteristics and mechanical dimensions.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 2206-H-RC is the direct functional equivalent for the obsolete 2206-H. Both components are manufactured by Bourns Inc. within the 2200 series and share identical electrical specifications and mechanical dimensions.

The 2206-H-RC carries active product status, ensuring ongoing availability and supply chain continuity. The 2206-H-RC is ROHS3 compliant, whereas the original 2206-H is non-compliant. For applications subject to RoHS requirements, the 2206-H-RC is the appropriate selection. Both parts maintain REACH unaffected status and EAR99 export classification.

Selection between these parts is determined by regulatory compliance requirements and product lifecycle status rather than electrical or mechanical performance differences.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 2206-H-RC be used as a direct replacement for the 2206-H in existing designs?

A: Yes. The 2206-H-RC is electrically and mechanically identical to the 2206-H across all specified parameters, including inductance, current rating, DC resistance, core material, shielding, package dimensions, and operating temperature range. Direct substitution is valid for circuit applications.

Q: What is the difference between the 2206-H and 2206-H-RC?

A: The primary differences are product status and regulatory compliance. The 2206-H is obsolete and RoHS non-compliant. The 2206-H-RC is active and ROHS3 compliant. Packaging format differs (standard versus bulk), but this does not affect functional performance in circuit applications.

Q: Are there any compatibility concerns with PCB layout or mounting when substituting the 2206-H-RC for the 2206-H?

A: No. Both components use identical through-hole radial, horizontal mounting with the same package dimensions (0.950" diameter, 0.550" maximum height). PCB footprints and mounting procedures remain unchanged.

Q: Which part should be selected for new designs?

A: The 2206-H-RC should be selected for new designs. It maintains active product status, ensuring long-term availability, and meets ROHS3 compliance requirements applicable to most current manufacturing standards.

Q: Do the 2206-H and 2206-H-RC have the same inductance tolerance?

A: Yes. Both parts are specified with ±15% inductance tolerance at 1 kHz test frequency.
