Bourns 5800-101 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Bourns 5800-101 is a 100 µH unshielded drum core wirewound inductor rated for 800 mA with a maximum DC resistance of 210mOhm, designed for through-hole axial mounting. This part is classified as obsolete, making equivalent substitutes necessary for new designs and ongoing production requirements. Substitute parts must maintain the same inductance value, core material, mounting type, and operating temperature range while meeting current electrical specifications.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the Bourns 5800-101 is evaluated based on the following critical parameters:

Direct Equivalent Criteria:

• Inductance value: 100 µH (±10% tolerance acceptable)
• Core material: Ferrite
• Mounting type: Through hole axial
• Operating temperature range: Minimum -55°C ~ 105°C
• DC resistance: ≤210mOhm maximum
• Current rating: ≥800 mA minimum

Substitute Classification:

Direct Manufacturer Equivalent (5800-101-RC): Identical electrical specifications and physical dimensions. Differs only in packaging format (tray vs. bulk) and product status (active vs. obsolete). RoHS3 compliance provides regulatory advantage.

Similar Manufacturer Equivalent (2474-25L): Meets core substitution criteria with acceptable parameter variations. Current rating exceeds minimum requirement (1.3 A vs. 800 mA). DC resistance within specification (208mOhm vs. 210mOhm max). Operating temperature range extended to 125°C. Inductance tolerance slightly wider (±15% vs. ±10%). Physical dimensions vary slightly but remain compatible with through-hole axial mounting.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For Direct Replacement (Preferred): The Bourns 5800-101-RC is the primary substitute. It maintains identical electrical and mechanical specifications while offering active product status and RoHS3 compliance. This part is recommended for new designs and production continuity where regulatory compliance is required.

For Alternative Applications: The API Delevan 2474-25L serves as a functional equivalent where the following conditions are met: the application can tolerate ±15% inductance tolerance, the circuit operates within the extended temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C), and the slightly reduced saturation current (640 mA vs. 1.1 A) does not impact circuit performance. The 2474-25L offers higher continuous current rating (1.3 A) and comparable DC resistance, making it suitable for designs with higher current headroom requirements.

Compliance Considerations: The 5800-101-RC is RoHS3 compliant, meeting current regulatory requirements for new product development. The 2474-25L remains RoHS non-compliant and should be evaluated against project compliance mandates before selection.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 5800-101-RC be used as a direct drop-in replacement for the 5800-101? A: Yes. The 5800-101-RC is electrically and mechanically identical to the 5800-101, differing only in packaging format and product status. It is a direct substitute suitable for PCB assembly without design modifications.

Q: What are the key differences between the 5800-101-RC and the 2474-25L? A: Both parts share the same 100 µH inductance and unshielded ferrite core construction. The 5800-101-RC maintains tighter inductance tolerance (±10% vs. ±15%), identical saturation current (1.1 A vs. 640 mA), and matching DC resistance. The 2474-25L offers higher continuous current rating (1.3 A vs. 800 mA) and extended operating temperature range (125°C vs. 105°C maximum). Physical dimensions differ slightly but remain compatible with through-hole axial mounting.

Q: Is the 2474-25L suitable for applications requiring the full 800 mA rating of the original 5800-101? A: The 2474-25L is rated for 1.3 A continuous current, exceeding the 800 mA requirement. However, its saturation current is 640 mA, which is lower than the 5800-101's 1.1 A saturation rating. Applications experiencing transient current spikes above 640 mA may experience inductor saturation with the 2474-25L. Circuit analysis is required to confirm compatibility.

Q: What is the impact of the ±15% inductance tolerance on the 2474-25L compared to the ±10% tolerance of the 5800-101? A: The wider tolerance on the 2474-25L results in a maximum inductance range of 85 µH to 115 µH versus 90 µH to 110 µH for the 5800-101. Applications with tight inductance requirements or frequency-dependent filtering should account for this variation during circuit design.

Q: Are there packaging considerations when switching between these parts? A: The 5800-101-RC is supplied in tray packaging, while the 2474-25L is supplied in bulk packaging. Both maintain identical through-hole axial lead configurations suitable for standard PCB assembly processes. Packaging format does not affect electrical performance or board-level compatibility.

Q: Which substitute should be selected for new product designs? A: The Bourns 5800-101-RC is recommended for new designs due to active product status, RoHS3 compliance, and identical electrical specifications. The 2474-25L may be considered as an alternative where extended temperature range or higher current rating provides design advantages and saturation current limitations are acceptable.
