Matching Parameters:

• Inductance: 1.5 µH (identical)
• Tolerance: ±20% (identical)
• DC Resistance: 110mOhm Max (identical)
• Package / Case: 0806 (2016 Metric) (identical)
• Core Type: Drum Core, Wirewound (identical)
• Core Material: Iron Powder (identical)
• Shielding: Shielded (identical)
• Operating Temperature: -40°C ~ 125°C (identical)
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount (identical)
• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant (identical)
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited) (identical)

Differing Parameter:

• Current Rating: DFE201610P-1R5M=P2 is rated for 2.5 A, compared to 1.8 A for the main part. This represents an increase in current handling capability, making the substitute suitable for applications requiring the original 1.8 A specification and beyond.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The DFE201610P-1R5M=P2 is the appropriate substitute for the obsolete DFE201610R-H-1R5M=P2. Both components are manufactured by Murata Electronics and maintain identical electrical specifications for inductance, DC resistance, and tolerance. The substitute part carries an active product status, ensuring ongoing availability and supply chain support. Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and identical moisture sensitivity ratings, confirming regulatory and environmental compatibility. The increased current rating of the substitute (2.5 A versus 1.8 A) provides enhanced thermal margin without altering the core electrical performance required by the original design.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the DFE201610P-1R5M=P2 be used as a direct replacement for the DFE201610R-H-1R5M=P2?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical inductance (1.5 µH), DC resistance (110mOhm Max), tolerance (±20%), package (0806 / 2016 Metric), core type, core material, shielding, operating temperature range, and compliance certifications. The substitute is rated for higher current (2.5 A versus 1.8 A), which does not compromise compatibility with designs specified for 1.8 A operation.

Q: What is the significance of the current rating difference?

A: The DFE201610P-1R5M=P2 is rated for 2.5 A continuous current, while the original part is rated for 1.8 A. This difference reflects the thermal design of each variant. For applications requiring 1.8 A or less, the substitute provides equivalent performance with additional thermal headroom.

Q: Are the physical dimensions identical?

A: Yes. Both parts are packaged in the 0806 (2016 Metric) case with identical dimensions: 0.079" L x 0.063" W (2.00mm x 1.60mm) and a maximum seated height of 0.039" (1.00mm).

Q: Do both parts meet the same compliance standards?

A: Yes. Both the DFE201610R-H-1R5M=P2 and DFE201610P-1R5M=P2 are ROHS3 compliant with Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited), confirming identical environmental and regulatory compliance.

Q: Why is the original part classified as obsolete?

A: The DFE201610R-H-1R5M=P2 is no longer in active production. The DFE201610P-1R5M=P2 represents the current active equivalent from Murata Electronics for this inductance and package specification.
