Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the Bourns 5800-182 are classified based on electrical parameter compatibility and mechanical fit:

Direct Equivalent (Same Manufacturer): The Bourns 5800-182-RC maintains identical electrical specifications (1.8 mH inductance, 180 mA current rating, 4.4 Ohm DCR, ±10% tolerance) and physical dimensions. The primary difference is packaging format (tray versus bulk) and product status (active versus obsolete). This part is a direct functional replacement.

Similar Alternative (Different Manufacturer): The API Delevan Inc. 2474-40L shares the same inductance value (1.8 mH), core material (ferrite), mounting type (through-hole axial), and operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C). However, it differs in current rating (300 mA versus 180 mA), saturation current (150 mA versus 270 mA), DC resistance (4 Ohm versus 4.4 Ohm), inductance tolerance (±15% versus ±10%), and physical dimensions (0.240" Dia x 0.740" L versus 0.275" Dia x 0.700" L). This part is suitable for applications where higher current capacity is acceptable and tighter tolerance is not required.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For Direct Replacement: The Bourns 5800-182-RC is the primary substitute for the obsolete 5800-182. Both parts are manufactured by Bourns Inc. and share identical electrical and mechanical specifications. The 5800-182-RC is currently in active production status with ROHS3 compliance, making it suitable for new designs and legacy system support. Packaging differs (tray versus bulk), but electrical performance is equivalent.

For Alternative Applications: The API Delevan 2474-40L may be selected when higher current capacity (300 mA) is acceptable and inductance tolerance of ±15% meets circuit requirements. This part offers a lower maximum DC resistance (4 Ohm) and extended operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C). Physical dimensions differ slightly, requiring PCB layout verification. This part is not RoHS3 compliant.

Compliance Considerations: If RoHS3 compliance is required, the Bourns 5800-182-RC is the only active substitute meeting this standard. The API Delevan 2474-40L does not meet RoHS3 requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Bourns 5800-182-RC be used as a direct drop-in replacement for the 5800-182?

A: Yes. The 5800-182-RC is electrically and mechanically identical to the 5800-182. Both have 1.8 mH inductance, 180 mA current rating, 4.4 Ohm maximum DCR, ±10% tolerance, and identical physical dimensions (0.275" Dia x 0.700" L). The primary difference is product status (active versus obsolete) and packaging format (tray versus bulk).

Q: What are the key differences between the Bourns 5800-182-RC and the API Delevan 2474-40L?

A: The API Delevan 2474-40L has a higher current rating (300 mA versus 180 mA), lower saturation current (150 mA versus 270 mA), lower maximum DCR (4 Ohm versus 4.4 Ohm), wider inductance tolerance (±15% versus ±10%), and slightly different physical dimensions (0.240" Dia x 0.740" L versus 0.275" Dia x 0.700" L). Both share the same 1.8 mH inductance value and ferrite core material.

Q: Is the API Delevan 2474-40L suitable for circuits designed for the 5800-182?

A: The API Delevan 2474-40L can be used in applications where the circuit operates below 180 mA and where ±15% inductance tolerance is acceptable. The lower saturation current (150 mA) must be considered if the circuit experiences transient current spikes. Physical dimensions differ, requiring PCB layout verification for through-hole mounting.

Q: What is the impact of the different inductance tolerances?

A: The 5800-182 and 5800-182-RC both have ±10% tolerance, while the API Delevan 2474-40L has ±15% tolerance. For circuits with tight inductance requirements, the Bourns parts provide better tolerance control. For general-purpose filtering or impedance matching applications, the ±15% tolerance of the 2474-40L is typically acceptable.

Q: Are there packaging considerations when switching between these parts?

A: The Bourns 5800-182-RC is supplied in tray packaging, while the API Delevan 2474-40L is supplied in bulk packaging. Both are through-hole axial components suitable for manual or automated assembly. Physical dimensions differ slightly between the Bourns and API Delevan parts, requiring PCB footprint verification.

Q: What is the RoHS compliance status of these substitutes?

A: The Bourns 5800-182-RC is ROHS3 compliant. The original 5800-182 and the API Delevan 2474-40L are both RoHS non-compliant. For applications requiring RoHS3 compliance, the 5800-182-RC is the only suitable substitute.
