Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 9230-08-RC is determined by the following criteria:

• Inductance Value: Must be 330 nH with ±10% tolerance
• Mounting Configuration: Through-hole axial package only
• Core Type: Phenolic material, unshielded construction
• Current Handling: Minimum 780 mA rating required
• DC Resistance: Maximum 200mOhm specification
• Frequency Characteristics: Q factor of 30 @ 25MHz and self-resonant frequency of 410 MHz
• Environmental Compliance: ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected status

The API Delevan 1025R-08K meets all substitution criteria with equivalent inductance, matching package geometry, and compatible electrical performance within the defined parameter space.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The API Delevan 1025R-08K is a direct substitute for the Bourns 9230-08-RC based on electrical and mechanical equivalence. Both components are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current regulatory requirements. The 1025R-08K provides a higher current rating (830 mA versus 780 mA) and an extended operating temperature range (-55°C to 125°C versus -55°C to 105°C), making it suitable for applications requiring additional thermal margin. The DC resistance specification of 220mOhm on the substitute remains within acceptable tolerance relative to the 200mOhm maximum of the primary part. Both components maintain identical inductance, Q factor, and self-resonant frequency characteristics at the test frequency of 25 MHz.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the API Delevan 1025R-08K replace the Bourns 9230-08-RC in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both components share identical inductance values, tolerance, package dimensions, and core material. The substitute meets or exceeds all electrical specifications of the primary part.

Q: What is the difference in DC resistance between these parts?

A: The Bourns 9230-08-RC specifies a maximum DC resistance of 200mOhm, while the API Delevan 1025R-08K specifies 220mOhm maximum. This 20mOhm difference remains within acceptable engineering tolerance for 330 nH inductors in this package class.

Q: Are there temperature rating differences?

A: The Bourns part operates from -55°C to 105°C, while the API Delevan substitute operates from -55°C to 125°C. The substitute provides a 20°C extended upper temperature limit, which may be beneficial in thermally constrained applications.

Q: Do both parts have identical physical dimensions?

A: Yes. Both components measure 0.095" diameter by 0.250" length (2.41mm x 6.35mm) in axial configuration and are compatible with identical PCB footprints.

Q: Are both parts compliant with current environmental regulations?

A: Yes. Both the Bourns 9230-08-RC and API Delevan 1025R-08K are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected.

Q: What is the current rating difference?

A: The Bourns 9230-08-RC is rated for 780 mA, while the API Delevan 1025R-08K is rated for 830 mA. The substitute provides 50 mA additional current capacity.
