Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the Bourns 5800-472 is determined by the following critical parameters: inductance value (4.7 mH), inductance tolerance, current rating capability, DC resistance, core material (ferrite), shielding type (unshielded), and through-hole axial mounting configuration. Parts are grouped into two categories:

Direct Equivalent: Parts maintaining identical electrical specifications and mechanical form factor, differing only in packaging or product status.

Similar Substitute: Parts with the same inductance value and core material but with variations in current rating, DC resistance, tolerance, or physical dimensions that remain compatible within the application's electrical requirements.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

5800-472-RC (Direct Equivalent): This part is the primary substitute for the obsolete 5800-472. It maintains identical electrical specifications (4.7 mH inductance, ±10% tolerance, 110 mA current rating, 12.5Ohm DCR) and mechanical form factor. The 5800-472-RC differs only in packaging (tray versus bulk) and product status (active versus obsolete). This part achieves ROHS3 compliance, providing regulatory advantage over the original. Selection of 5800-472-RC is appropriate for direct replacement in existing designs without circuit modification.

2474-45L (Similar Substitute): The API Delevan 2474-45L shares the same 4.7 mH inductance value and ferrite core material but introduces variations in electrical performance. This part offers higher current rating (190 mA versus 110 mA) and lower DC resistance (10.1Ohm versus 12.5Ohm), resulting in reduced power dissipation. However, the saturation current is lower (90 mA versus 170 mA), inductance tolerance is wider (±15% versus ±10%), and physical dimensions differ slightly (0.240" Dia x 0.740" L). The 2474-45L operates across an extended temperature range (-55°C to 125°C). Selection of 2474-45L requires circuit analysis to confirm compatibility with the application's current and saturation requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 5800-472-RC be used as a direct replacement for the 5800-472?

A: Yes. The 5800-472-RC is electrically and mechanically identical to the 5800-472, with the same inductance (4.7 mH), tolerance (±10%), current rating (110 mA), and DC resistance (12.5Ohm Max). The primary differences are packaging format and product status. No circuit modifications are required.

Q: What are the key differences between the 5800-472 and the 2474-45L?

A: Both parts share 4.7 mH inductance and ferrite core construction. The 2474-45L has higher current rating (190 mA), lower DC resistance (10.1Ohm), wider tolerance (±15%), lower saturation current (90 mA), and slightly different physical dimensions. The 2474-45L also provides extended temperature range (-55°C to 125°C).

Q: When should the 2474-45L be selected over the 5800-472-RC?

A: The 2474-45L is suitable when the application requires higher current handling capability or lower DC resistance to minimize power loss. However, the lower saturation current and wider inductance tolerance must be verified as acceptable for the specific circuit design.

Q: Are there packaging considerations when substituting these parts?

A: The 5800-472-RC is supplied in tray packaging, while the 2474-45L is supplied in bulk packaging. Both maintain through-hole axial mounting compatibility. Physical dimensions of the 2474-45L (0.240" Dia x 0.740" L) differ slightly from the 5800-472 (0.275" Dia x 0.700" L), requiring verification of PCB layout clearance.

Q: What is the compliance status of these substitute parts?

A: The 5800-472-RC achieves ROHS3 compliance, providing regulatory advantage. The 2474-45L is RoHS non-compliant. Both parts are REACH unaffected and classified as EAR99 for export control purposes.
