Bourns 5800-560 56µH Axial Inductor Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Bourns 5800-560 is a 56 µH unshielded drum core wirewound inductor rated for 1 A continuous current with a maximum DC resistance of 150 mOhm. This through-hole axial component operates across the temperature range of -55°C to 105°C and is designed for applications requiring fixed inductance filtering and energy storage in power conversion circuits.

The 5800-560 is classified as obsolete. Identifying equivalent and substitute parts is necessary to maintain design continuity, ensure supply chain availability, and support ongoing production requirements for legacy systems utilizing this component.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the Bourns 5800-560 are identified based on strict electrical and mechanical compatibility criteria:

Primary Substitution Criteria:

• Inductance value: 56 µH (exact match required)
• Inductance tolerance: ±10% or tighter
• Current rating: minimum 1 A continuous
• DC resistance: 150 mOhm or lower
• Core material: Ferrite
• Shielding: Unshielded
• Mounting: Through hole axial configuration
• Operating temperature range: minimum -55°C to 105°C coverage

Direct Equivalent (5800-560-RC): Identical electrical specifications and physical form factor. Differs only in packaging format (tray vs. bulk) and product status (active vs. obsolete). RoHS3 compliance provides regulatory advantage.

Similar Substitute (2474-22L): Meets core electrical requirements with enhanced current rating (1.65 A) and lower DC resistance (130 mOhm). Inductance tolerance is wider (±15%). Operating temperature extends to 125°C. Physical dimensions vary slightly. Represents alternative from different manufacturer (API Delevan Inc.).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For Direct Replacement (Preferred): The 5800-560-RC is the primary substitute for the obsolete 5800-560. Both components share identical electrical specifications, physical dimensions, and axial form factor. The 5800-560-RC is currently in active production status with 1940 units in stock. The primary advantage is RoHS3 compliance, which aligns with current regulatory requirements. Packaging differs (tray vs. bulk), but electrical performance is equivalent.

For Alternative Substitution: The API Delevan 2474-22L provides a functional alternative when the direct equivalent is unavailable. This component meets the 56 µH inductance requirement and maintains ferrite core construction. The 2474-22L offers enhanced specifications: higher continuous current rating (1.65 A vs. 1 A) and lower DC resistance (130 mOhm vs. 150 mOhm). However, the inductance tolerance is wider (±15% vs. ±10%), and the saturation current is lower (850 mA vs. 1.5 A). Physical dimensions differ slightly. The 2474-22L is RoHS non-compliant, matching the compliance status of the original 5800-560.

Selection Criteria:

• If regulatory compliance with RoHS3 is required: select 5800-560-RC
• If direct form factor and performance match is critical: select 5800-560-RC
• If enhanced current handling and lower resistance are beneficial: consider 2474-22L with dimensional verification

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 5800-560-RC be used as a direct drop-in replacement for the 5800-560?

A: Yes. The 5800-560-RC is electrically and mechanically identical to the 5800-560. Both components have 56 µH inductance, ±10% tolerance, 1 A current rating, 150 mOhm maximum DC resistance, and identical physical dimensions (0.275" Dia x 0.700" L). The only differences are packaging format and product status. No circuit modifications are required.

Q: What are the key differences between the 5800-560-RC and the 2474-22L?

A: Both maintain 56 µH inductance and ferrite core construction. The 2474-22L offers higher current rating (1.65 A vs. 1 A) and lower DC resistance (130 mOhm vs. 150 mOhm). However, the 2474-22L has wider inductance tolerance (±15% vs. ±10%), lower saturation current (850 mA vs. 1.5 A), and slightly different physical dimensions (0.240" Dia x 0.740" L vs. 0.275" Dia x 0.700" L). The 2474-22L is manufactured by API Delevan Inc., not Bourns Inc.

Q: Is the 2474-22L suitable for applications requiring 1 A continuous current?

A: Yes. The 2474-22L is rated for 1.65 A continuous current, which exceeds the 1 A requirement. However, the saturation current (850 mA) is lower than the original 5800-560 (1.5 A). Applications experiencing transient current spikes above 850 mA may cause saturation in the 2474-22L. Verify that peak current requirements do not exceed 850 mA for this substitute.

Q: Will the different physical dimensions of the 2474-22L affect PCB layout?

A: The 2474-22L dimensions (0.240" Dia x 0.740" L) differ from the 5800-560 (0.275" Dia x 0.700" L). The diameter is smaller (0.240" vs. 0.275") and the length is slightly longer (0.740" vs. 0.700"). Verify that the PCB footprint and component clearances accommodate these dimensional changes before substitution.

Q: What is the significance of RoHS3 compliance for the 5800-560-RC?

A: RoHS3 compliance indicates the 5800-560-RC meets current European Union Restriction of Hazardous Substances regulations. The original 5800-560 is RoHS non-compliant. If your application or market requires RoHS3 certification, the 5800-560-RC is the appropriate choice. The 2474-22L is also RoHS non-compliant.

Q: Can both substitute parts be used interchangeably in the same design?

A: No. While both meet the 56 µH inductance requirement, they have different electrical characteristics. The 5800-560-RC is electrically identical to the original 5800-560. The 2474-22L has different tolerance, saturation current, and DC resistance specifications. Select one substitute based on your specific application requirements and do not mix both types in the same circuit unless the design has been validated for both components.
