Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The PA4343.332NLT from Pulse Electronics qualifies as a direct substitute based on the following critical parameters:

• Identical inductance value of 3.3 µH at 100 kHz test frequency
• Matching inductance tolerance of ±20%
• Shielded molded construction with surface mount configuration
• Identical operating temperature range of -40°C to 125°C
• ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 rating matching the original part
• Superior current rating (18 A vs. 9.5 A) and lower DC resistance (6.8 mOhm vs. 11 mOhm)

The substitute part exceeds the electrical performance requirements of the main part while maintaining mechanical and environmental compatibility.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both parts maintain Active product status and full ROHS3 compliance. The PA4343.332NLT provides enhanced electrical performance through higher current rating and reduced DC resistance, making it suitable for applications requiring improved thermal efficiency and current handling capacity. Selection between these parts depends on circuit design requirements and availability constraints. The Pulse Electronics substitute is electrically superior within the specified parameter envelope.
