Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the CM6296-105 is determined by strict equivalence of the following electrical and mechanical parameters:

• Inductance value and frequency specification (1 mH @ 1 kHz)
• Number of lines (2-line configuration)
• Current rating capacity (3.5A maximum)
• DC resistance specification (50mOhm maximum)
• Operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C)
• Mounting type and physical dimensions (Surface Mount, 1.058" x 1.058" x 0.423" maximum height)
• Package configuration (Horizontal, 4 PC Pad)

The CM6296R-105 is eligible as a direct substitute for the CM6296-105 because it maintains identical electrical specifications and mechanical dimensions. The primary distinction between these parts is packaging format and RoHS compliance status, which do not affect functional interchangeability in applications where the electrical and thermal characteristics are the only determining factors.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both CM6296-105 and CM6296R-105 share identical electrical and mechanical specifications, making them functionally equivalent for applications requiring a 1 mH, 2-line common mode choke with 3.5A current capacity and 50mOhm DCR.

The CM6296R-105 is ROHS3 compliant, while the CM6296-105 is non-compliant. For applications subject to RoHS regulatory requirements, the CM6296R-105 is the appropriate selection. The CM6296-105 is supplied in bulk packaging, whereas the CM6296R-105 is available in tray packaging. Component selection should consider procurement, storage, and assembly requirements based on packaging preference and regulatory compliance mandates.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What electrical parameters must match for a part to be a valid substitute for the CM6296-105? A: Substitute parts must maintain identical inductance value (1 mH @ 1 kHz), number of lines (2-line configuration), current rating (3.5A maximum), and DC resistance (50mOhm maximum). Operating temperature range and mounting type must also match.

Q: Are CM6296-105 and CM6296R-105 functionally interchangeable? A: Yes, the electrical and mechanical characteristics are identical. Both parts provide equivalent performance in circuit applications. Packaging format and RoHS compliance differ, but these do not affect functional interchangeability.

Q: What is the difference between bulk and tray packaging? A: CM6296-105 is supplied in bulk packaging, while CM6296R-105 is supplied in tray packaging. Tray packaging provides better protection during handling and storage. Selection depends on assembly process requirements and inventory management preferences.

Q: Which part should be selected for RoHS-compliant applications? A: The CM6296R-105 is ROHS3 compliant and should be selected for applications subject to RoHS regulatory requirements. The CM6296-105 is non-compliant and should not be used in RoHS-regulated applications.

Q: Are there any thermal performance differences between these parts? A: No. Both parts share the same operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C) and identical thermal specifications based on the provided parameters.
