IHD3EB220L Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The IHD3EB220L is a 22 µH unshielded drum core wirewound inductor manufactured by Vishay Dale, rated for 4 A continuous current with a maximum DC resistance of 24 mOhm. This through-hole axial component operates across the temperature range of -55°C to 125°C and is ROHS3 compliant. The part is currently active in production with 1108 units in stock. Substitute parts are identified when equivalent inductance values, core materials, mounting types, and electrical ratings meet the functional requirements of the original specification while maintaining compliance standards.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The Bourns Inc. 5900-220-RC is identified as a direct substitute based on the following alignment of critical parameters:

• Inductance value: 22 µH (exact match)
• Core material: Ferrite drum core, wirewound (identical construction)
• Mounting type: Through hole axial (identical form factor)
• Shielding: Unshielded (identical)
• Compliance: ROHS3 compliant (equivalent regulatory status)
• Package type: Axial (compatible mechanical interface)

Substitution is valid when the application current requirement does not exceed 3.8 A and the operating temperature range requirement does not exceed -55°C to 105°C. The tolerance specification of ±10% for the substitute part remains within acceptable inductance variation for most applications requiring ±15% tolerance.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the IHD3EB220L and 5900-220-RC maintain ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, meeting equivalent regulatory requirements. The primary selection criterion is application current demand. The IHD3EB220L supports 4 A continuous current, while the 5900-220-RC is rated for 3.8 A. For applications operating at or below 3.8 A, the Bourns substitute is electrically compatible. The operating temperature range of the IHD3EB220L extends to 125°C, compared to 105°C for the substitute; applications requiring operation above 105°C require the original part. Physical dimensions are comparable, with both components measuring 0.900" in length and approximately 0.45" in diameter, ensuring mechanical compatibility in standard through-hole PCB layouts.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 5900-220-RC replace the IHD3EB220L in all applications?

A: The 5900-220-RC is compatible when the application current does not exceed 3.8 A and the maximum operating temperature does not exceed 105°C. Applications requiring 4 A continuous current or operation above 105°C must use the original IHD3EB220L.

Q: What is the difference in DC resistance between these parts?

A: The IHD3EB220L has a maximum DC resistance of 24 mOhm, while the 5900-220-RC is specified at 30 mOhm maximum. This 6 mOhm difference may affect power dissipation in high-current applications and should be evaluated against circuit requirements.

Q: Are the physical dimensions compatible for PCB mounting?

A: Both components are axial through-hole inductors with 0.900" length. The diameter difference (0.460" versus 0.453") is negligible for standard PCB hole spacing and does not affect mechanical compatibility.

Q: Do both parts meet the same compliance standards?

A: Yes, both the IHD3EB220L and 5900-220-RC are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting equivalent regulatory requirements for industrial and commercial applications.

Q: What is the inductance tolerance difference?

A: The IHD3EB220L is specified at ±15% tolerance, while the 5900-220-RC offers tighter tolerance at ±10%. The substitute part's tighter tolerance may provide improved circuit performance in applications sensitive to inductance variation.
