Bourns 8230-02 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Bourns 8230-02 is a 180 nH unshielded wirewound inductor rated for 1.01 A with a maximum DC resistance of 120 mOhm. This through-hole axial component operates across a temperature range of -55°C to 105°C and is designed for applications requiring low inductance values with moderate current handling.

The 8230-02 carries an obsolete product status, making identification of suitable alternatives essential for ongoing production and maintenance applications. The substitute part 8230-02-RC provides functional equivalence with improved compliance characteristics and active product availability.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the Bourns 8230-02 is determined by strict equivalence across the following electrical and mechanical parameters:

• Inductance value: 180 nH with ±10% tolerance
• Current rating: 1.01 A minimum
• DC resistance: 120 mOhm maximum
• Q factor: 35 @ 25 MHz
• Self resonant frequency: 550 MHz
• Operating temperature range: -55°C to 105°C
• Core material: Phenolic
• Shielding configuration: Unshielded
• Mounting and package: Through-hole axial

The substitute part 8230-02-RC maintains identical electrical specifications and physical form factor while differing in product status and regulatory compliance. Both parts are manufactured by Bourns Inc. within the 8230 series.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 8230-02-RC is the direct substitute for the obsolete 8230-02. Both parts deliver identical electrical performance and occupy the same physical footprint in through-hole axial configurations.

The primary distinction between these parts is regulatory compliance. The 8230-02-RC achieves ROHS3 compliance, whereas the 8230-02 is non-compliant. For applications subject to RoHS directives or requiring compliance documentation, the 8230-02-RC is the appropriate selection.

Both parts maintain REACH Unaffected status and share the same ECCN and HTSUS classifications. The 8230-02-RC is currently in active production with higher inventory availability (1909 pcs vs. 925 pcs), supporting long-term supply chain stability.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 8230-02-RC directly replace the 8230-02 in existing designs?

A: Yes. The 8230-02-RC is electrically and mechanically identical to the 8230-02. Both parts share the same inductance (180 nH), current rating (1.01 A), DC resistance (120 mOhm max), and physical dimensions (0.120" Dia × 0.300" L). No circuit modifications are required.

Q: What is the difference between these two part numbers?

A: The primary differences are product status and RoHS compliance. The 8230-02 is obsolete and RoHS non-compliant, while the 8230-02-RC is active production and ROHS3 compliant. Electrical specifications and packaging are identical.

Q: Are there any packaging differences between 8230-02 and 8230-02-RC?

A: The 8230-02 is supplied in standard packaging, while the 8230-02-RC is supplied in bulk packaging. Both maintain the same axial through-hole form factor and physical dimensions. Bulk packaging does not affect component performance or compatibility.

Q: Which part should be selected for new designs?

A: The 8230-02-RC should be selected for new designs. It provides active product support, improved regulatory compliance (ROHS3), and better supply chain availability.

Q: Is the 8230-02-RC suitable for applications requiring RoHS compliance?

A: Yes. The 8230-02-RC is ROHS3 compliant and suitable for applications with RoHS requirements. The 8230-02 does not meet RoHS standards.
