ELL-6SH101M Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The ELL-6SH101M is a 100 µH shielded wirewound surface mount inductor manufactured by Panasonic Electronic Components, rated for 400 mA with 680mOhm DC resistance. This component is classified as obsolete, making equivalent substitute parts necessary for new designs and ongoing production requirements. Substitute inductors must maintain the same inductance value, shielding characteristics, and surface mount compatibility while meeting current application demands.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute inductors for the ELL-6SH101M are selected based on strict electrical and mechanical compatibility criteria. All substitute parts must meet the following requirements:

Inductance value of 100 µH at 100 kHz test frequency
Shielded construction to maintain electromagnetic isolation
Surface mount package configuration
Current rating equal to or greater than 400 mA
DC resistance within acceptable operating parameters
ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 rating
Wirewound or drum core construction with ferrite material

The three qualified substitute parts (B82462G4104M000, SD53-101R, and SRR5028-101Y) satisfy these core electrical and mechanical parameters while offering active product status and improved availability compared to the obsolete ELL-6SH101M.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three substitute parts are active products with ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 ratings, providing long-term availability and regulatory compliance advantages over the obsolete ELL-6SH101M.

B82462G4104M000 (EPCOS - TDK Electronics) offers the highest current rating at 530 mA with the lowest DC resistance at 580mOhm Max, providing superior thermal performance. This part includes AEC-Q200 automotive qualification and operates across an extended temperature range of -55°C to 150°C, suitable for demanding thermal environments.

SD53-101-R (Eaton - Electronics Division) provides a compact footprint at 5.20mm x 5.20mm with a current rating of 440 mA. The DC resistance of 801mOhm Max is higher than alternatives, requiring thermal evaluation for applications with sustained current near the 400 mA rating.

SRR5028-101Y (Bourns Inc.) delivers the lowest DC resistance at 480mOhm Max with a 450 mA current rating, optimizing for minimal power dissipation. This part specifies Q factor of 8 at 796kHz and self-resonant frequency of 8MHz, providing additional frequency response characterization. Inductance tolerance is ±30%, which is wider than the main part and other substitutes.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the ELL-6SH101M be directly replaced with any of these substitute parts?

A: All three substitute parts maintain the same 100 µH inductance value, shielded construction, and surface mount configuration. However, physical dimensions vary slightly. Verify PCB layout compatibility before substitution, particularly for the SD53-101-R which has a smaller footprint (5.20mm x 5.20mm) compared to the original (6.40mm x 6.00mm).

Q: Which substitute has the best thermal performance?

A: The B82462G4104M000 offers the lowest DC resistance at 580mOhm Max combined with the highest current rating at 530 mA, resulting in the lowest power dissipation for equivalent current levels.

Q: Are there temperature range differences I should consider?

A: The B82462G4104M000 operates from -55°C to 150°C, providing the widest temperature range. The SD53-101-R and SRR5028-101Y both operate from -40°C to 125°C. Select based on your application's thermal requirements.

Q: What is the significance of inductance tolerance differences?

A: The ELL-6SH101M, B82462G4104M000, and SD53-101-R all specify ±20% tolerance. The SRR5028-101Y specifies ±30% tolerance, which is wider and may require circuit validation if tight inductance control is critical.

Q: Are all substitutes available in tape and reel packaging?

A: Yes, all three substitute parts are available in Tape & Reel (TR) packaging, matching the production requirements of the obsolete ELL-6SH101M.

Q: Do any substitutes have automotive qualification?

A: The B82462G4104M000 carries AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. The other substitutes do not specify automotive ratings.
