Bourns 8230-14 560nH Wirewound Inductor Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Bourns 8230-14 is a 560 nH unshielded wirewound inductor rated for 495 mA continuous current with a maximum DC resistance of 500mOhm. This through-hole axial component operates across -55°C to 105°C and features a phenolic core with ±10% inductance tolerance. The 8230-14 is classified as obsolete, making identification of active equivalent parts essential for ongoing production and design continuity.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the Bourns 8230-14 is determined by strict equivalence across the following electrical and mechanical parameters:

Inductance value and tolerance (560 nH ±10%), current rating (495 mA minimum), DC resistance specification (500mOhm maximum), frequency characteristics (Q @ 25MHz and self-resonant frequency), operating temperature range (-55°C to 105°C), core material (phenolic), shielding configuration (unshielded), and through-hole axial package format with matching physical dimensions (0.120" Dia x 0.300" L).

The substitute part 8230-14-RC maintains identical electrical performance and mechanical compatibility while offering improved product status and regulatory compliance.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 8230-14-RC is the direct active equivalent of the obsolete 8230-14. Both parts are manufactured by Bourns Inc. and share identical electrical specifications and mechanical form factors. The 8230-14-RC offers two distinct advantages: active product status ensuring continued availability and supply chain support, and ROHS3 compliance meeting current regulatory requirements for new designs and production environments where RoHS compliance is mandated.

Selection between these parts depends on regulatory requirements and supply chain constraints. For applications requiring RoHS compliance or long-term component availability, the 8230-14-RC is the appropriate choice. The electrical and thermal performance characteristics are equivalent across both part numbers.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 8230-14-RC directly replace the 8230-14 in existing designs?

A: Yes. The 8230-14-RC maintains identical inductance (560 nH), current rating (495 mA), DC resistance (500mOhm maximum), frequency characteristics, operating temperature range, core material, shielding configuration, and physical dimensions. Direct substitution is electrically and mechanically compatible.

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

A: The 8230-14 is obsolete with RoHS non-compliant status, while the 8230-14-RC is an active product with ROHS3 compliance. All electrical and mechanical parameters are identical.

Q: Are there packaging differences between the 8230-14 and 8230-14-RC?

A: The 8230-14-RC is supplied in bulk packaging, whereas the 8230-14 packaging specification is not defined. Both parts use the same axial through-hole package format with identical physical dimensions.

Q: What compliance certifications apply to the 8230-14-RC?

A: The 8230-14-RC is ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected. Both parts carry EAR99 export classification and HTSUS code 8504.50.4000.

Q: Are there any frequency or temperature limitations when substituting these parts?

A: No. Both parts operate identically across the -55°C to 105°C temperature range with matching Q factor (30 @ 25MHz) and self-resonant frequency (300MHz). Substitution introduces no frequency or thermal performance changes.
