Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the ASPI-0615FS-5R6N are identified based on strict electrical and mechanical parameter matching. The following criteria determine substitution eligibility:

Critical Parameters (Must Match Exactly):

• Inductance value: 5.6 µH
• Current rating: 2 A
• DC resistance: 55 mOhm
• Package / Case: 2424 (6060 Metric)
• Shielding type: Shielded
• Core material: Ferrite
• Mounting type: Surface Mount
• Operating temperature range: -40°C ~ 125°C

Allowable Variation:

• Inductance tolerance may differ (±30% vs. ±20%) provided the nominal inductance value remains 5.6 µH
• Product status may transition from obsolete to active

Parts meeting all critical parameters are classified as direct electrical and mechanical equivalents suitable for board-level substitution without design modification.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The ASPI-0615FS-5R6M is a direct substitute for the ASPI-0615FS-5R6N. Both components are manufactured by Abracon LLC within the same ASPI-0615FS series and share identical electrical and mechanical specifications with the exception of inductance tolerance and product status.

Selection Basis:

The ASPI-0615FS-5R6M is classified as active product status, ensuring ongoing availability and supply chain continuity. The substitute part maintains all critical electrical parameters: 5.6 µH inductance, 2 A current rating, 55 mOhm DC resistance, and identical package dimensions (2424 / 6060 Metric). The inductance tolerance of ±20% on the substitute part is tighter than the ±30% tolerance of the obsolete part, providing improved performance consistency.

Both parts are RoHS and REACH compliant where applicable, with identical ECCN and HTSUS classifications, supporting regulatory and export requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the ASPI-0615FS-5R6M be used as a direct replacement for the ASPI-0615FS-5R6N on existing PCBs?

A: Yes. The ASPI-0615FS-5R6M is a direct mechanical and electrical substitute. Both components use identical 2424 (6060 Metric) surface-mount packages with matching footprints, dimensions, and mounting requirements. No PCB layout modifications are required.

Q: What is the difference between the ±30% and ±20% inductance tolerances?

A: The ASPI-0615FS-5R6N carries ±30% inductance tolerance, while the ASPI-0615FS-5R6M carries ±20% tolerance. Both parts have a nominal inductance of 5.6 µH. The tighter tolerance on the substitute part results in more consistent inductance values across production batches, which may improve circuit performance in applications sensitive to inductance variation.

Q: Are there any compliance or certification differences between these parts?

A: Both parts share identical ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8504.50.8000) classifications. The ASPI-0615FS-5R6M includes RoHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status documentation. The obsolete ASPI-0615FS-5R6N does not include these certifications in the provided specifications.

Q: Why is the ASPI-0615FS-5R6N classified as obsolete?

A: The ASPI-0615FS-5R6N has reached end-of-life status. The ASPI-0615FS-5R6M is the active equivalent within the same product series and is the recommended procurement choice for new designs and ongoing production.

Q: Do both parts have the same current and saturation ratings?

A: Yes. Both the ASPI-0615FS-5R6N and ASPI-0615FS-5R6M are rated for 2 A continuous current with a saturation current (Isat) of 2.2 A. DC resistance is identical at 55 mOhm for both parts.

Q: Are the physical dimensions identical?

A: Yes. Both parts measure 0.236" L x 0.236" W (6.00mm x 6.00mm) with a maximum seated height of 0.087" (2.20mm). They are fully compatible for board-level substitution without mechanical interference or rework.
