TE Connectivity 2-2176075-1 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The TE Connectivity 2-2176075-1 is a 2.1 nH unshielded thin film inductor rated for 200 mA maximum current with 700 mOhm maximum DC resistance in a 0201 (0603 Metric) surface mount package. This component is classified as obsolete, necessitating identification of active equivalent parts for ongoing design requirements and production continuity. Substitute parts must maintain electrical performance within the specified inductance, current rating, and impedance parameters while meeting modern compliance standards.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the TE Connectivity 2-2176075-1 is based on the following critical parameters that must remain compatible:

Electrical Compatibility Requirements:

• Inductance value: 2.1 nH (tolerance ±0.2 nH for main part)
• Package / Case: 0201 (0603 Metric) surface mount
• Shielding configuration: Unshielded
• Mounting type: Surface mount

Performance Considerations:

• Current rating must equal or exceed 200 mA
• DC resistance must not exceed 700 mOhm maximum
• Self resonant frequency and Q factor at 500 MHz provide performance baseline

Compliance Requirements:

• RoHS3 compliance mandatory
• Moisture sensitivity level 1 (unlimited) acceptable

The Murata Electronics LQP03TN2N1B02D meets all substitution criteria. This part maintains identical inductance value and package configuration while providing superior electrical performance through reduced DC resistance (150 mOhm maximum versus 700 mOhm) and higher current rating (600 mA versus 200 mA). The substitute part is active in production status, ensuring long-term availability.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Murata Electronics LQP03TN2N1B02D is the qualified substitute for the obsolete TE Connectivity 2-2176075-1. Selection is based on the following engineering criteria:

Electrical Equivalence: Both parts maintain identical 2.1 nH inductance value and are packaged in the 0201 (0603 Metric) surface mount configuration. The substitute part provides enhanced electrical performance with lower DC resistance and higher current rating capacity, making it suitable for applications requiring the original part's specifications.

Compliance Status: Both parts are ROHS3 compliant and carry moisture sensitivity level 1 (unlimited), meeting regulatory and environmental requirements. The substitute part is classified as active in production, ensuring availability for current and future procurement cycles.

Availability: The TE Connectivity 2-2176075-1 is obsolete with limited remaining inventory. The Murata LQP03TN2N1B02D is actively manufactured with substantial stock availability, providing supply chain continuity.

Performance Enhancement: The substitute part delivers superior performance characteristics including tighter inductance tolerance (±0.1 nH versus ±0.2 nH), significantly reduced DC resistance (150 mOhm versus 700 mOhm maximum), and higher Q factor (14 versus 8 at 500 MHz). These improvements result in lower insertion loss and improved circuit efficiency.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Murata LQP03TN2N1B02D directly replace the TE Connectivity 2-2176075-1 in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical inductance value (2.1 nH), package configuration (0201 / 0603 Metric), and mounting type (surface mount). The substitute part meets or exceeds all electrical specifications of the original part. No circuit redesign is required for direct substitution.

Q: What are the key differences between these two inductors?

A: The primary differences are film type (thin film versus thick film), DC resistance (700 mOhm maximum versus 150 mOhm maximum), current rating (200 mA versus 600 mA), and product status (obsolete versus active). The substitute part provides lower resistance and higher current capacity while maintaining identical inductance.

Q: Are both parts compliant with current regulatory standards?

A: Yes. Both the TE Connectivity 2-2176075-1 and Murata LQP03TN2N1B02D are ROHS3 compliant. Both carry moisture sensitivity level 1 (unlimited), indicating no special moisture handling requirements during storage or assembly.

Q: What is the physical size compatibility between these parts?

A: Both inductors are packaged in the 0201 (0603 Metric) surface mount package with identical footprint dimensions of 0.024" L x 0.012" W (0.60mm x 0.30mm). PCB layout and assembly processes require no modification for substitution.

Q: Why does the substitute part have lower DC resistance?

A: The Murata LQP03TN2N1B02D uses thick film construction with non-magnetic core material, resulting in lower DC resistance (150 mOhm maximum) compared to the thin film construction of the TE Connectivity part (700 mOhm maximum). This difference is inherent to the manufacturing technology and provides improved performance in the substitute part.

Q: Is the higher self resonant frequency of the substitute part significant?

A: The Murata part exhibits a self resonant frequency of 11 GHz compared to 8 GHz for the TE Connectivity part. This higher frequency extends the usable frequency range of the substitute part, making it suitable for applications operating at higher frequencies while maintaining performance at the original part's operating frequency.

Q: What packaging formats are available for the substitute part?

A: The Murata LQP03TN2N1B02D is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format, whereas the TE Connectivity 2-2176075-1 was available in Cut Tape (CT) and Digi-Reel® formats. Standard tape and reel packaging is compatible with automated assembly equipment used in modern manufacturing environments.
