AISC-1008-R15J-T Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The AISC-1008-R15J-T is a 150 nH unshielded drum core wirewound inductor manufactured by Abracon LLC, rated for 580 mA continuous current with a maximum DC resistance of 620 mOhm. This surface mount component in 1008 (2520 Metric) package is designed for high-frequency applications requiring compact form factor and stable inductance characteristics. The part is currently active in production with full RoHS3 compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity rating. Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical performance and mechanical compatibility can be maintained within the specified parameter tolerances.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the AISC-1008-R15J-T are qualified based on the following criteria:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Inductance value: 150 nH (±5% tolerance)
• Package / Case: 1008 (2520 Metric)
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount
• Shielding: Unshielded
• RoHS3 Compliance

Allowable Variation Parameters:

• Current Rating: Minimum 500 mA (substitute must support application current requirements)
• DC Resistance: Maximum 700 mOhm (within acceptable performance margin)
• Operating Temperature: Minimum -40°C ~ 125°C range
• Core Material: Ceramic or Air core acceptable for this inductance value
• Q Factor @ 100MHz: 45 or higher acceptable

Two qualified substitutes meet these criteria: CW252016-R15J (Bourns Inc.) and LQW2UASR15J00L (Murata Electronics).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

AISC-1008-R15J-T (Primary Part): Select when current requirement is 580 mA and lower DC resistance (620 mOhm max) is critical for power efficiency. Ceramic core construction provides stable performance. Active production status with full inventory availability.

CW252016-R15J (Bourns Substitute): Select when current requirement does not exceed 500 mA and slightly higher DC resistance (700 mOhm max) is acceptable. Ceramic core matches primary part construction. Suitable for applications where current headroom is not limiting. Highest inventory availability (3100 pcs).

LQW2UASR15J00L (Murata Substitute): Select when current requirement is 580 mA and extended low-temperature operation to -55°C is required. Air core construction provides alternative core technology. Matches primary part current rating. Extended temperature range provides additional operational margin.

All three parts maintain ROHS3 compliance, unlimited moisture sensitivity rating, and identical package / case specifications for direct PCB footprint compatibility.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can CW252016-R15J replace AISC-1008-R15J-T in all applications? A: CW252016-R15J is suitable when circuit current does not exceed 500 mA. If the application requires the full 580 mA rating of the primary part, CW252016-R15J is not appropriate due to lower current rating.

Q: What is the difference between ceramic and air core construction in these inductors? A: Both core materials are specified in the provided data. Ceramic core (AISC-1008-R15J-T and CW252016-R15J) and air core (LQW2UASR15J00L) both achieve 150 nH inductance with ±5% tolerance. Core material selection depends on application-specific requirements not specified in this reference.

Q: Are all three parts pin-compatible? A: Yes. All three parts use identical 1008 (2520 Metric) surface mount package with matching footprint dimensions, enabling direct PCB substitution without layout modification.

Q: What is the significance of DC resistance differences between parts? A: DC resistance values are 620 mOhm (AISC-1008-R15J-T), 700 mOhm (CW252016-R15J), and 700 mOhm (LQW2UASR15J00L). Higher DC resistance increases power dissipation in the inductor. Selection depends on thermal budget and efficiency requirements of the specific application.

Q: Can LQW2UASR15J00L be used in applications requiring -40°C minimum temperature? A: Yes. LQW2UASR15J00L operating temperature range is -55°C ~ 125°C, which exceeds the -40°C ~ 125°C requirement of the primary part.

Q: Are all parts currently in production? A: Yes. All three parts have Active product status with current inventory: AISC-1008-R15J-T (1002 pcs), CW252016-R15J (3100 pcs), and LQW2UASR15J00L (2100 pcs).
