Bourns 5800-272 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Bourns 5800-272 is a 2.7 mH unshielded drum core wirewound inductor rated for 150 mA with a maximum DC resistance of 6.6 Ohm, designed for through-hole axial mounting. This component is classified as obsolete, making equivalent and substitute parts necessary for ongoing design support and procurement continuity. Direct replacements and functionally compatible alternatives are available from Bourns Inc. and API Delevan Inc.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the Bourns 5800-272 are classified into two categories based on electrical and mechanical compatibility:

Direct Equivalent (5800-272-RC): This part maintains identical electrical specifications including inductance (2.7 mH), tolerance (±10%), current rating (150 mA), DC resistance (6.6 Ohm max), core material (ferrite), shielding (unshielded), and physical dimensions (0.275" Dia x 0.700" L). The primary difference is packaging format (tray versus bulk) and product status (active versus obsolete). This part is a direct functional replacement.

Similar Substitute (2474-42L): This part shares the same inductance value (2.7 mH), core material (ferrite), shielding (unshielded), and mounting type (through hole axial). However, it differs in construction type (molded versus drum core), current rating (250 mA versus 150 mA), DC resistance (5.8 Ohm max versus 6.6 Ohm max), inductance tolerance (±15% versus ±10%), and operating temperature range (-55°C to 125°C versus -55°C to 105°C). This part is suitable for applications where higher current capacity and lower DC resistance are acceptable.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For Direct Replacement: The 5800-272-RC is the recommended substitute for the obsolete 5800-272. Both parts are manufactured by Bourns Inc. and maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications. The 5800-272-RC is currently in active production status with ROHS3 compliance, providing improved regulatory alignment compared to the original part. Packaging differs (tray versus bulk), but electrical performance is equivalent.

For Alternative Applications: The 2474-42L from API Delevan Inc. is suitable for applications where the design can accommodate higher current capacity (250 mA versus 150 mA), lower DC resistance (5.8 Ohm versus 6.6 Ohm), and wider operating temperature range (-55°C to 125°C). The inductance tolerance is wider (±15% versus ±10%), and the construction type differs (molded versus drum core wirewound). This part remains in active production status but does not meet ROHS3 compliance.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 5800-272-RC be used as a direct replacement for the 5800-272?

A: Yes. The 5800-272-RC is electrically and mechanically identical to the 5800-272, with the same inductance (2.7 mH), tolerance (±10%), current rating (150 mA), DC resistance (6.6 Ohm max), and physical dimensions. The primary difference is packaging format and active production status.

Q: What are the key differences between the 5800-272 and the 2474-42L?

A: The 2474-42L differs in construction type (molded versus drum core wirewound), current rating (250 mA versus 150 mA), DC resistance (5.8 Ohm max versus 6.6 Ohm max), inductance tolerance (±15% versus ±10%), and operating temperature range (-55°C to 125°C versus -55°C to 105°C). Inductance value and core material remain identical.

Q: Is the 2474-42L compatible with circuits designed for the 5800-272?

A: Compatibility depends on circuit requirements. The 2474-42L can substitute in applications where the higher current capacity and lower DC resistance are acceptable, and where the wider inductance tolerance (±15%) does not affect circuit performance. Physical dimensions differ slightly (0.240" Dia x 0.740" L versus 0.275" Dia x 0.700" L), which may impact board layout.

Q: What is the difference in packaging between the 5800-272 and 5800-272-RC?

A: The 5800-272 is supplied in bulk packaging, while the 5800-272-RC is supplied in tray packaging. Electrical specifications remain identical.

Q: Are there RoHS compliance differences between these parts?

A: Yes. The 5800-272-RC is ROHS3 compliant, while both the 5800-272 and 2474-42L are RoHS non-compliant. For applications requiring RoHS compliance, the 5800-272-RC is the appropriate selection.
