Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the IDCS2512ER682M are qualified based on strict electrical and mechanical parameter matching within the allowed tolerances for this product category. The substitution logic is based on the following critical parameters:

Electrical Parameters (Must Match):

• Inductance: 6.8 mH
• Inductance Tolerance: ±20%
• Current Rating: 40 mA minimum
• DC Resistance: 25 Ohm maximum
• Shielding: Shielded configuration
• Test Frequency: 100 kHz

Mechanical Parameters (Must Match):

• Mounting Type: Surface Mount
• Physical Dimensions: 0.260" L x 0.175" W (6.60mm x 4.45mm) with allowable tolerance
• Height: Seated maximum 0.115" (2.92mm) with allowable tolerance
• Packaging: Tape & Reel (TR)

Compliance Parameters (Must Match):

• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited)
• REACH Status: REACH Unaffected

All identified substitute parts meet these criteria and are classified as Active product status.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three inductors—IDCS2512ER682M, SRR6603-682ML, and ASPI-0403S-682M-T—meet the core electrical and mechanical requirements for direct substitution within the specified parameter tolerances. Selection among these parts should be based on the following factors:

Product Availability and Lead Time: ASPI-0403S-682M-T (Abracon LLC) maintains the highest inventory level at 16,577 pieces, followed by SRR6603-682ML (Bourns Inc.) at 1,780 pieces, and IDCS2512ER682M (Vishay Dale) at 1,092 pieces.

Operating Temperature Considerations: The IDCS2512ER682M and SRR6603-682ML support the full temperature range of -40°C to 125°C. The ASPI-0403S-682M-T operates within -40°C to 85°C, which is suitable for standard industrial and commercial applications but does not extend to the upper temperature limit of the other two options.

Compliance Certification: All three parts are RoHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and classified as Active product status, meeting current regulatory requirements for electronic component procurement.

Physical Dimensions: IDCS2512ER682M and ASPI-0403S-682M-T share identical footprint dimensions (0.260" L x 0.175" W). SRR6603-682ML has a width of 0.173" (6.40mm), which is within acceptable tolerance for surface mount placement but represents a minor dimensional variation.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can SRR6603-682ML be used as a direct replacement for IDCS2512ER682M?

A: Yes. SRR6603-682ML meets all critical electrical parameters: 6.8 mH inductance at ±20% tolerance, 40 mA current rating, and 25 Ohm maximum DC resistance. Physical dimensions are within acceptable tolerance for surface mount assembly. Both parts are RoHS3 compliant and rated for -40°C to 125°C operation.

Q: What is the temperature operating range difference between ASPI-0403S-682M-T and the other two parts?

A: ASPI-0403S-682M-T operates from -40°C to 85°C, while IDCS2512ER682M and SRR6603-682ML both operate from -40°C to 125°C. Applications requiring operation above 85°C should use IDCS2512ER682M or SRR6603-682ML.

Q: Are there dimensional differences that affect PCB layout?

A: IDCS2512ER682M and ASPI-0403S-682M-T have identical footprints (0.260" L x 0.175" W). SRR6603-682ML has a width of 0.173" instead of 0.175", a difference of 0.002" (0.05mm). All three parts have compatible height specifications for standard surface mount assembly.

Q: Do all substitute parts have the same moisture sensitivity rating?

A: Yes. All three parts are rated MSL 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions for storage or handling.

Q: Which part should be selected for maximum inventory availability?

A: ASPI-0403S-682M-T (Abracon LLC) offers the highest stock level at 16,577 pieces. This part is suitable for applications operating within the -40°C to 85°C temperature range.
