LSMGG160808T331RG Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The LSMGG160808T331RG is a 330 Ohm power line ferrite bead manufactured by Taiyo Yuden in 0603 (1608 Metric) surface mount package. This component operates at 100 MHz impedance with an 800mA current rating and 210mOhm maximum DC resistance. The part is currently in Active product status and is RoHS3 compliant with MSL 1 rating.

Substitute parts are identified for applications requiring equivalent electrical and mechanical performance. The FBMH1608HL331-T carries a "Not For New Designs" status, while the Z0603C331BPWZT is classified as Obsolete. Understanding the distinctions between these alternatives is essential for component selection in production environments.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the LSMGG160808T331RG is determined by the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Impedance @ 100 MHz: 330 Ohms
• Package / Case: 0603 (1608 Metric)
• Filter Type: Power Line
• Number of Lines: 1
• Operating Temperature Range: -40°C ~ 125°C
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount

Allowable Variation Parameters:

• Current Rating (Max): Substitute must meet or exceed 800mA
• DC Resistance (DCR) (Max): Substitute must not exceed 210mOhm

The FBMH1608HL331-T meets all mandatory parameters with identical electrical specifications. The Z0603C331BPWZT meets all mandatory parameters with higher current rating (900mA) and lower DC resistance (130mOhm), both favorable characteristics for substitution.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

LSMGG160808T331RG (Primary Selection)

The LSMGG160808T331RG is the recommended component for new designs. It maintains Active product status, ensuring long-term availability and manufacturer support. All compliance certifications are current: RoHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and MSL 1 rating. Tape & Reel packaging supports high-volume production environments.

FBMH1608HL331-T (Secondary Selection)

The FBMH1608HL331-T provides electrical and mechanical equivalence with identical impedance, current rating, and DC resistance specifications. However, this part carries "Not For New Designs" status, indicating the manufacturer has transitioned this product line. This substitute is suitable for legacy system maintenance, repair, or continuation of existing production runs where component qualification has already been completed. Tape & Reel packaging is available. Inventory availability is higher than the primary part (4188 Pcs vs. 2754 Pcs).

Z0603C331BPWZT (Tertiary Selection)

The Z0603C331BPWZT meets all electrical and mechanical parameters with superior performance characteristics: 900mA current rating (100mA higher) and 130mOhm DC resistance (80mOhm lower). However, this part is classified as Obsolete, indicating discontinued manufacturer support and limited long-term availability. Cut Tape packaging may present handling and automation challenges compared to Tape & Reel format. This substitute is not recommended for new designs or production commitments.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the FBMH1608HL331-T be used as a direct replacement for the LSMGG160808T331RG?

A: Yes. The FBMH1608HL331-T provides electrical and mechanical equivalence. Both parts share identical impedance (330 Ohms @ 100 MHz), current rating (800mA), DC resistance (210mOhm), package (0603 1608 Metric), and operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 125°C). The primary distinction is product status: FBMH1608HL331-T is "Not For New Designs," while LSMGG160808T331RG is Active.

Q: What is the difference between the Z0603C331BPWZT and the LSMGG160808T331RG?

A: Both parts meet the core electrical specifications (330 Ohms @ 100 MHz, 0603 package, power line filter, single line). The Z0603C331BPWZT offers improved performance with higher current rating (900mA vs. 800mA) and lower DC resistance (130mOhm vs. 210mOhm). However, the Z0603C331BPWZT is Obsolete, manufactured by KEMET, and supplied in Cut Tape packaging rather than Tape & Reel. The LSMGG160808T331RG is Active status and recommended for new designs.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these substitutes?

A: Yes. The LSMGG160808T331RG and FBMH1608HL331-T are supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format, suitable for automated assembly. The Z0603C331BPWZT is supplied in Cut Tape (CT) format, which may require manual handling or alternative feeder systems. All three parts use identical 0603 (1608 Metric) surface mount package dimensions.

Q: Can I use the Z0603C331BPWZT in a new design?

A: The Z0603C331BPWZT is classified as Obsolete. While it meets the electrical and mechanical parameters, its discontinued status creates supply chain risk and eliminates manufacturer support. The LSMGG160808T331RG is the appropriate choice for new designs.

Q: What compliance certifications apply to all three parts?

A: All three parts are RoHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating. All three are classified under ECCN EAR99 and HTSUS 8548.00.0000.

Q: Are the dimensional tolerances identical across all three parts?

A: The parts share the same package specification (0603 1608 Metric) with maximum height of 0.035" (0.90mm). Length is 0.063" (1.60mm) for all three. Width specifications show minor variation: LSMGG160808T331RG and Z0603C331BPWZT are 0.031" (0.80mm), while FBMH1608HL331-T is 0.032" (0.80mm). These variations fall within standard 0603 package tolerances and do not affect PCB layout or assembly compatibility.
