Bourns 4116R-1-101 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Bourns 4116R-1-101 is an 8-resistor isolated network array with 100 Ohm resistance per element, rated at 250mW power dissipation per element. This component is designed for applications requiring multiple matched resistors in a compact 16-DIP through-hole package. The part is currently active in production and widely used in analog signal conditioning, impedance matching, and network termination circuits.

Identifying equivalent and substitute parts is necessary when the primary part number becomes unavailable, when supply chain constraints require alternative sourcing, or when design revisions call for updated component specifications such as improved RoHS compliance or enhanced reliability certifications.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the 4116R-1-101 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Resistance value: 100 Ohm (exact match required)
• Tolerance: ±2% (exact match required)
• Number of resistor elements: 8 (exact match required)
• Power rating per element: 250mW (exact match required)
• Temperature coefficient: ±100ppm/°C (exact match required)
• Circuit configuration: Isolated (exact match required)
• Package: 16-DIP (0.300", 7.62mm) (exact match required)
• Mounting: Through Hole (exact match required)
• Operating temperature: -55°C to 125°C (exact match required)

The 4116R-1-101LF meets all these criteria and is classified as a direct manufacturer equivalent. The primary distinction between these parts is RoHS compliance status and packaging designation (LF suffix indicates lead-free termination).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the 4116R-1-101 and 4116R-1-101LF are active production parts from Bourns Inc. with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Selection between these parts is determined by regulatory and compliance requirements:

The 4116R-1-101LF is the preferred choice for new designs and applications subject to RoHS3 compliance mandates. This part incorporates lead-free termination and meets current environmental regulations.

The 4116R-1-101 remains suitable for legacy systems, applications without RoHS requirements, or existing designs where component qualification has already been completed. Both parts maintain REACH compliance status and identical ECCN/HTSUS classifications.

Footprint compatibility is absolute between these parts. PCB layouts, socket assignments, and mechanical mounting are interchangeable without modification.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 4116R-1-101LF be used as a direct replacement for the 4116R-1-101 in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both parts are electrically and mechanically identical. The LF suffix indicates lead-free termination. Substitution requires no design changes, PCB modifications, or re-qualification of circuit performance.

Q: What does the "LF" suffix indicate?

A: LF denotes lead-free (Pb-free) termination plating. This designation indicates compliance with RoHS3 environmental standards and is required for applications subject to EU or equivalent regulatory frameworks.

Q: Are there any thermal or electrical performance differences between these parts?

A: No. Both parts share identical resistance values, tolerance specifications, power ratings, temperature coefficients, and operating temperature ranges. Thermal and electrical performance is equivalent.

Q: What is the significance of the RoHS compliance difference?

A: RoHS3 compliance is a regulatory requirement in many markets. The 4116R-1-101LF meets these requirements; the 4116R-1-101 does not. Selection depends on end-product regulatory obligations and target market requirements.

Q: Are both parts available in the same packaging format?

A: Yes. Both the 4116R-1-101 and 4116R-1-101LF are supplied in 16-DIP through-hole packages with identical physical dimensions, pin counts, and mechanical specifications.

Q: Can these parts be used interchangeably in high-reliability applications?

A: Both parts are active production components from Bourns Inc. with identical electrical specifications. Interchangeability in high-reliability applications depends on specific qualification requirements and compliance certifications mandated by the application or end-user.
