Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the L0806C3R3MDMIT is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Electrical Parameters:

• Inductance value: 3.3 µH (±20% tolerance)
• Package / Case: 0806 (2016 Metric) form factor
• Shielding type: Shielded construction
• Core material: Ferrite

Mechanical Parameters:

• Physical dimensions: 0.079" L x 0.063" W (2.00mm x 1.60mm)
• Height - Seated (Max): 0.039" (1.00mm)
• Mounting type: Surface Mount

Compliance Parameters:

• RoHS3 Compliance
• Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL): 1 (Unlimited)
• REACH Status: REACH Unaffected

The substitute part MLP2016H3R3MT0S1 meets all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. Differences in current rating (1.2 A vs. 1.1 A), DC resistance (150mOhm vs. 160mOhm), and operating temperature range (−40°C ~ 125°C vs. −40°C ~ 85°C) represent improvements in performance specifications and do not preclude substitution in applications designed for the original component.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The MLP2016H3R3MT0S1 (TDK Corporation) is a direct substitute for the obsolete L0806C3R3MDMIT (KEMET). Selection of this substitute is supported by the following factors:

Electrical Equivalence: Both components provide identical inductance (3.3 µH) with matching tolerance (±20%) and identical package form factor (0806 / 2016 Metric). The substitute exhibits superior electrical performance with lower DC resistance (150mOhm vs. 160mOhm maximum) and higher current rating (1.2 A vs. 1.1 A), ensuring compatibility with applications designed for the original component.

Mechanical Compatibility: Physical dimensions and height specifications are identical, enabling direct PCB footprint compatibility without layout modifications.

Compliance and Certification: Both components maintain ROHS3 compliance, unlimited moisture sensitivity level (MSL 1), and REACH unaffected status. The substitute meets all regulatory requirements applicable to the original component.

Product Status: The original component is classified as obsolete, while the substitute maintains active product status with confirmed inventory availability (6100 pcs), ensuring long-term supply chain reliability.

Operating Temperature: The substitute supports an extended operating temperature range (-40°C to 125°C) compared to the original (-40°C to 85°C), providing additional thermal margin for demanding applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the MLP2016H3R3MT0S1 be used as a direct replacement for the L0806C3R3MDMIT without PCB modifications?

A: Yes. Both components share identical package dimensions (0806 / 2016 Metric), physical size (0.079" L x 0.063" W), and height (0.039" maximum seated height). No PCB layout or footprint changes are required.

Q: What are the key electrical differences between these two inductors?

A: The inductance value (3.3 µH) and tolerance (±20%) are identical. The substitute exhibits lower DC resistance (150mOhm maximum vs. 160mOhm maximum) and higher current rating (1.2 A vs. 1.1 A). These represent performance improvements that enhance component capability without compromising original design specifications.

Q: Are there any compliance or certification differences?

A: No. Both components are ROHS3 compliant, maintain MSL 1 (unlimited moisture sensitivity), and are REACH unaffected. Regulatory compliance is equivalent.

Q: Why is the original component classified as obsolete?

A: The L0806C3R3MDMIT is listed as obsolete by KEMET. The TDK MLP2016H3R3MT0S1 provides an active, equivalent alternative with confirmed ongoing production and inventory availability.

Q: Does the extended operating temperature range of the substitute affect compatibility?

A: No. The substitute's extended operating temperature range (-40°C to 125°C vs. -40°C to 85°C) represents an expansion of the thermal envelope. Applications designed for the original component's temperature range operate within the substitute's specifications.

Q: What packaging formats are available for the substitute part?

A: The MLP2016H3R3MT0S1 is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format. The original L0806C3R3MDMIT was available in Cut Tape (CT) & Digi-Reel® format. Verify packaging requirements for your procurement process.

Q: Are there any frequency-dependent performance differences?

A: The original component specifies inductance testing at 1 MHz, while the substitute specifies testing at 2 MHz. Both components maintain the 3.3 µH inductance specification across their respective test frequencies. Application-specific frequency response should be evaluated based on circuit requirements.
