Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts within the CM6296R series are qualified as parametric equivalents based on the following criteria:

Mechanical Compatibility: All substitute parts share identical physical dimensions (1.058" L x 1.058" W, 26.87mm x 26.87mm), maximum height (0.423" / 10.74mm), and package configuration (Horizontal, 4 PC Pad). This ensures direct PCB footprint compatibility.

Electrical Parameters: Substitution is determined by inductance value and current rating. The CM6296R series provides multiple inductance options (25 µH, 50 µH, 100 µH, 150 µH) with corresponding current ratings (9.5A to 10A) and DC resistance values (14 mOhm to 16 mOhm).

Thermal & Environmental Compliance: All parts operate across the identical temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C), maintain ROHS3 compliance, REACH Unaffected status, and MSL 5A (24 Hours) rating.

Series Consistency: All substitute parts belong to the CM6296R series and share Active product status, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain stability.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All substitute parts listed are Active products from API Delevan Inc. within the CM6296R series, ensuring consistent manufacturing standards and long-term component availability. Each part maintains ROHS3 compliance and REACH Unaffected status, meeting regulatory requirements for modern electronic applications.

Selection of substitute parts depends on circuit inductance requirements and maximum allowable current:

CM6296R-104 (100 µH, 9.5A): Primary specification for 100 µH filtering applications at 9.5A maximum current with 16 mOhm DC resistance.

CM6296R-154 (150 µH, 9.5A): Higher inductance option for applications requiring increased filtering at the same 9.5A current rating and 16 mOhm DC resistance.

CM6296R-253 (25 µH, 10A): Lower inductance option with increased current capacity (10A) and reduced DC resistance (14 mOhm) for high-current, lower-inductance filtering requirements.

CM6296R-503 (50 µH, 10A): Mid-range inductance option with 10A current rating and 14 mOhm DC resistance for moderate filtering applications.

All parts share identical mechanical footprints, thermal operating ranges, and compliance certifications, enabling direct substitution based on electrical parameter requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can CM6296R-104 be directly replaced with CM6296R-154?

A: Direct replacement is mechanically possible due to identical PCB footprints and package dimensions. However, the inductance value differs (100 µH vs. 150 µH). Substitution is valid only if the circuit design accommodates 150 µH inductance at 9.5A maximum current.

Q: What is the difference between CM6296R-104 and CM6296R-253?

A: CM6296R-104 provides 100 µH inductance at 9.5A with 16 mOhm DC resistance. CM6296R-253 provides 25 µH inductance at 10A with 14 mOhm DC resistance. The lower inductance and higher current capacity of CM6296R-253 suit different circuit requirements. Both share identical physical dimensions and thermal ratings.

Q: Are all CM6296R series parts mechanically interchangeable?

A: Yes. All parts in the CM6296R series (CM6296R-104, CM6296R-154, CM6296R-253, CM6296R-503) share identical dimensions (1.058" x 1.058" x 0.423" maximum height), package configuration (Horizontal, 4 PC Pad), and mounting type (Surface Mount). Mechanical interchangeability is confirmed.

Q: Do all substitute parts meet the same compliance standards?

A: Yes. All parts are ROHS3 compliant, REACH Unaffected, and maintain MSL 5A (24 Hours) moisture sensitivity rating. All operate across -55°C ~ 125°C temperature range.

Q: What determines whether a substitute part is suitable for my application?

A: Substitution suitability is determined by: (1) Required inductance value at 1 kHz, (2) Maximum circuit current, (3) Acceptable DC resistance, and (4) PCB footprint compatibility. All CM6296R series parts provide identical footprints; selection depends on inductance and current specifications.

Q: Can CM6296R-253 (10A rating) replace CM6296R-104 (9.5A rating) in a 9.5A circuit?

A: Yes. CM6296R-253 has a higher current rating (10A) than required (9.5A), making it suitable for circuits designed for 9.5A operation. However, the inductance differs (25 µH vs. 100 µH), so substitution is valid only if the circuit design accommodates 25 µH inductance.

Q: What is the inventory status of substitute parts?

A: CM6296R-104: 1076 Pcs New Original In Stock; CM6296R-154: 1551 Pcs New Original In Stock; CM6296R-253: 1170 Pcs New Original In Stock; CM6296R-503: 1158 Pcs New Original In Stock.
