ELL-6SH100M Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The ELL-6SH100M is a 10 µH shielded wirewound inductor manufactured by Panasonic Electronic Components, rated for 1.3 A with 65mOhm DC resistance. This component is classified as obsolete, making identification of functionally equivalent alternatives essential for ongoing design support and production continuity. Substitute parts must maintain the same inductance value, shielding characteristics, and surface mount compatibility while meeting or exceeding the electrical performance specifications.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the ELL-6SH100M is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Inductance Value: Must be 10 µH at 100 kHz test frequency
• Shielding: Must be shielded to maintain electromagnetic isolation
• Mounting Type: Must be surface mount compatible
• Current Rating: Must equal or exceed 1.3 A
• DC Resistance: Should be comparable (65mOhm baseline) to maintain circuit performance
• Compliance: Must maintain ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 rating

Both identified substitute parts meet these core substitution criteria. The B82462G4103M000 and SRR5028-100Y are active production components with higher current ratings and improved thermal specifications compared to the obsolete ELL-6SH100M.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

B82462G4103M000 (EPCOS - TDK Electronics)

This substitute provides the closest electrical match to the ELL-6SH100M. The 62mOhm maximum DC resistance is lower than the original 65mOhm specification, resulting in reduced power dissipation. The 1.5 A current rating exceeds the original 1.3 A requirement with a saturation current of 1.3 A. The component is AEC-Q200 rated and supports an extended operating temperature range of -55°C to 150°C. Active production status ensures long-term availability. Footprint dimensions (6.30mm x 6.30mm) are comparable to the original, with slightly reduced height (3.00mm vs. 3.30mm).

SRR5028-100Y (Bourns Inc.)

This substitute meets all core substitution criteria with a 1.5 A current rating and 1.4 A saturation current. The 70mOhm maximum DC resistance is slightly higher than the original specification. The inductance tolerance is ±30% compared to the original ±20%, which may impact circuit performance in tolerance-sensitive applications. The component features a lower self-resonant frequency of 30MHz and Q factor of 9 at 2.52MHz. Operating temperature range is -40°C to 125°C. The smaller footprint (5.80mm x 5.80mm) may provide layout advantages in space-constrained designs. Active production status ensures availability.

Both substitutes are ROHS3 compliant with MSL 1 rating, matching the original component's environmental specifications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the B82462G4103M000 or SRR5028-100Y be used as direct replacements for the ELL-6SH100M?

A: Both parts meet the core substitution criteria: 10 µH inductance at 100 kHz, shielded construction, surface mount compatibility, and current ratings exceeding 1.3 A. However, PCB layout modifications may be required due to different footprint dimensions. The B82462G4103M000 offers the closest dimensional match.

Q: What is the impact of different DC resistance values?

A: The B82462G4103M000 has 62mOhm (lower than original 65mOhm), resulting in reduced power dissipation and heat generation. The SRR5028-100Y has 70mOhm (higher than original), resulting in slightly increased power dissipation. Both variations remain within acceptable ranges for typical inductor applications.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: The ELL-6SH100M packaging is listed as nonstandard. Both substitutes are supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) packaging, which is standard for automated assembly processes. This may require changes to procurement and handling procedures.

Q: How do inductance tolerances affect circuit design?

A: The ELL-6SH100M and B82462G4103M000 both specify ±20% tolerance. The SRR5028-100Y specifies ±30% tolerance, which represents a wider variation band. In circuits where inductance tolerance is critical, the B82462G4103M000 provides tighter specification matching.

Q: What are the thermal operating ranges?

A: The B82462G4103M000 supports -55°C to 150°C, providing the widest thermal range. The SRR5028-100Y supports -40°C to 125°C. Select based on your application's thermal requirements.

Q: Do these substitutes maintain RoHS and MSL compliance?

A: Both substitutes are ROHS3 compliant with MSL 1 (Unlimited) rating, matching the original ELL-6SH100M specifications.
