Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the FDV0618-H-R68M=P3 is based on the following criteria derived from the provided parameters:

Primary Substitution Basis:

• Manufacturer alignment (Murata Electronics)
• Functional category (Fixed Inductor)
• Electrical specifications (680 nH inductance value)
• Current rating compatibility (9.61 A)
• DC resistance characteristics (8.6 mOhm Max)
• Shielding type (Shielded)
• Operating temperature range (-20°C ~ 100°C)
• Compliance certifications (REACH Unaffected, EAR99)

Secondary Consideration:

• Packaging format difference (Tape & Reel vs. Cut Tape) does not affect electrical equivalence but impacts procurement and assembly processes

The substitute part FDSD0630-H-R68M=P3 maintains electrical and thermal specifications within the allowed parameters for this inductor category.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Compliance and Regulatory Alignment: Both the FDV0618-H-R68M=P3 and FDSD0630-H-R68M=P3 maintain identical REACH and ECCN classifications (REACH Unaffected, EAR99), ensuring regulatory compliance equivalence for applications subject to export control and environmental regulations.

Product Status Consideration: The FDV0618-H-R68M=P3 carries a "Not For New Designs" status, while the substitute FDSD0630-H-R68M=P3 is classified as "Obsolete." Both components are discontinued from active production. Selection between these parts should be based on current inventory availability and application requirements rather than design status alone.

Packaging Impact: The primary difference between these parts is packaging format: Tape & Reel (TR) versus Cut Tape (CT). This distinction affects procurement logistics and assembly line compatibility but does not alter electrical performance. Selection should align with existing assembly equipment and supply chain processes.

Electrical Equivalence: The substitute part provides complete electrical specification data (current rating, DC resistance, shielding, temperature range) that confirms functional equivalence for the 680 nH inductance category. Both components are surface-mount inductors suitable for the same circuit applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can FDSD0630-H-R68M=P3 be used as a direct replacement for FDV0618-H-R68M=P3?

A: Yes, from an electrical standpoint. Both components share identical inductance value (680 nH), manufacturer (Murata Electronics), and regulatory compliance status. The primary consideration is packaging format: the substitute uses Cut Tape (CT) instead of Tape & Reel (TR), which may require adjustment to procurement and assembly processes.

Q: What is the significance of the "Not For New Designs" status on the main part?

A: This designation indicates that Murata Electronics has discontinued active support and development for this component. It remains available from existing inventory but is not recommended for new circuit designs. The substitute part carries an "Obsolete" status, indicating both components are no longer in active production.

Q: Are there electrical performance differences between these two inductors?

A: No electrical performance differences exist within the provided specifications. Both components are 680 nH shielded inductors with identical inductance values, current ratings (9.61 A), DC resistance (8.6 mOhm Max), and operating temperature ranges (-20°C ~ 100°C).

Q: How does the packaging difference affect component selection?

A: Tape & Reel (TR) packaging is used for automated high-volume assembly processes, while Cut Tape (CT) is typically used for lower-volume or manual assembly operations. Selection depends on your manufacturing process capabilities and supply chain infrastructure. Electrical performance is unaffected by packaging format.

Q: Are both parts compliant with current environmental and export regulations?

A: Yes. Both the FDV0618-H-R68M=P3 and FDSD0630-H-R68M=P3 maintain REACH Unaffected status and EAR99 export classification. The substitute additionally carries ROHS3 compliance certification. Both components meet current regulatory requirements for their respective applications.

Q: What should I consider when transitioning from the main part to the substitute?

A: Verify that your assembly equipment can accommodate Cut Tape (CT) packaging if transitioning from Tape & Reel (TR). Confirm that current inventory levels of either component meet your production timeline requirements, as both are discontinued products. Electrical specifications are fully compatible, requiring no circuit redesign.
