Bourns 5800-561 560µH Inductor Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Bourns 5800-561 is a 560 µH unshielded drum core wirewound inductor rated for 300 mA continuous current with a maximum DC resistance of 1.3Ω. 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.

The 5800-561 carries an obsolete product status. Identifying equivalent and substitute parts is necessary to maintain design continuity, ensure supply chain reliability, and support ongoing production or repair requirements for legacy systems utilizing this component.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the 5800-561 are identified based on matching the following critical electrical and mechanical parameters:

• Inductance value: 560 µH
• Core material: Ferrite
• Mounting configuration: Through hole axial
• Shielding characteristic: Unshielded
• Operating temperature range compatibility
• Current handling capability

Two substitute parts are available:

5800-561-RC (Direct Equivalent): Identical electrical specifications and physical form factor. Differs only in packaging format (tray vs. standard) and product status (active vs. obsolete). This part maintains full compatibility with the original design.

2474-34L (Similar Substitute): Matches the 560 µH inductance value, ferrite core material, and through-hole axial configuration. Differs in construction type (molded vs. drum core), current rating (560 mA vs. 300 mA), DC resistance (1.14Ω vs. 1.3Ω), and inductance tolerance (±15% vs. ±10%). This part provides higher current capacity and lower resistance but requires verification of tolerance and saturation current compatibility with the application circuit.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For Direct Replacement: The 5800-561-RC is the preferred substitute. It maintains identical electrical and mechanical specifications while offering active product status and ROHS3 compliance. The only difference is packaging format (tray), which does not affect circuit performance. This part is recommended for applications where design continuity and specification matching are required.

For Alternative Substitution: The 2474-34L from API Delevan Inc. provides a functional alternative with the same 560 µH inductance and ferrite core construction. However, this part introduces specification differences that must be evaluated against circuit requirements:

• Higher current rating (560 mA vs. 300 mA) permits operation in higher-current applications
• Lower DC resistance (1.14Ω vs. 1.3Ω) reduces power dissipation
• Wider inductance tolerance (±15% vs. ±10%) may affect frequency-dependent circuit behavior
• Lower saturation current (270 mA vs. 500 mA) limits headroom before core saturation
• Extended operating temperature range (-55°C to 125°C vs. -55°C to 105°C) supports higher-temperature environments
• Molded construction differs from drum core wirewound design

The 2474-34L is suitable only when circuit design permits the specification variations and when the lower saturation current does not conflict with peak current demands.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 5800-561-RC be used as a direct drop-in replacement for the 5800-561?

A: Yes. The 5800-561-RC is electrically and mechanically identical to the 5800-561. The only difference is packaging format (tray vs. standard). No circuit modifications are required.

Q: What are the key differences between the 5800-561 and the 2474-34L?

A: The primary differences are construction type (drum core wirewound vs. molded), current rating (300 mA vs. 560 mA), DC resistance (1.3Ω vs. 1.14Ω), saturation current (500 mA vs. 270 mA), and inductance tolerance (±10% vs. ±15%). Both maintain 560 µH inductance and ferrite core material.

Q: Is the 2474-34L compatible with circuits designed for the 5800-561?

A: Compatibility depends on circuit requirements. The 2474-34L can substitute if the application tolerates ±15% inductance variation, does not require saturation current above 270 mA, and benefits from lower DC resistance. Applications with strict inductance tolerance or high peak current demands may not be suitable.

Q: Why is the 5800-561 marked as obsolete?

A: The 5800-561 carries obsolete status, indicating it is no longer in active production. The 5800-561-RC provides an active alternative with identical specifications.

Q: Does the 2474-34L fit the same PCB footprint as the 5800-561?

A: The 2474-34L has slightly different dimensions (0.240" Dia x 0.740" L vs. 0.275" Dia x 0.700" L). While both are axial through-hole components, physical fit on the PCB should be verified before substitution.

Q: What is the compliance difference between these parts?

A: The 5800-561-RC is ROHS3 compliant, while both the 5800-561 and 2474-34L are RoHS non-compliant. For applications requiring RoHS compliance, the 5800-561-RC is the only suitable option among these three parts.
