Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the NLCV32T-100K-PFD are qualified based on the following electrical and mechanical parameters:

Primary Substitution Criteria:

• Inductance value: 10 µH ±10%
• Current rating: minimum 450 mA
• DC resistance: maximum 468mOhm
• Core material: Ferrite, unshielded
• Mounting type: Surface mount
• Package footprint: 1210 (3225 Metric) compatible
• Operating temperature range: minimum -40°C ~ 105°C
• Frequency characteristics: Self resonant frequency 30MHz

Substitution Groups:

Group 1 - Direct Series Replacement (Preferred) NLCV32T-100K-EFD is the manufacturer-recommended substitute from TDK Corporation's active NLCV-EFD series. This part maintains identical electrical specifications and physical dimensions while offering improved supply availability through active production status.

Group 2 - Cross-Manufacturer Equivalent B82422H1103K000 from EPCOS (TDK Electronics) provides electrical equivalence with enhanced current rating (500 mA vs. 450 mA) and improved DC resistance (460mOhm vs. 468mOhm). Package designation differs (2-SMD, J-Lead vs. standard 1210), though physical dimensions and footprint remain compatible. Operating temperature range extends to -55°C ~ 150°C.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

NLCV32T-100K-EFD is the primary recommended substitute. This part is manufactured by TDK Corporation with active product status, ensuring long-term supply availability and design support. Electrical and mechanical specifications are identical to the NLCV32T-100K-PFD, providing direct functional equivalence. Both parts maintain AEC-Q200 automotive qualification and ROHS3 compliance. The transition from Tape & Reel to Cut Tape & Digi-Reel® packaging does not affect component performance or PCB assembly compatibility.

B82422H1103K000 serves as a secondary cross-manufacturer equivalent from EPCOS (TDK Electronics). This part exceeds the original specification in current rating (500 mA vs. 450 mA) and provides superior DC resistance (460mOhm vs. 468mOhm). The extended operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 150°C) supports applications requiring broader thermal performance. Package designation differs (2-SMD, J-Lead), though physical dimensions remain compatible with 1210 footprint requirements. Q factor at 2.52MHz is lower (12 vs. 15), which may affect high-frequency performance in sensitive applications. This part is suitable for designs where enhanced current margin and thermal range provide system-level benefits.

Both substitute parts maintain AEC-Q200 certification and ROHS3 compliance, ensuring regulatory and quality standards alignment with the original component.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can NLCV32T-100K-EFD be used as a direct replacement for NLCV32T-100K-PFD?

A: Yes. NLCV32T-100K-EFD is the manufacturer-recommended substitute with identical inductance (10 µH), current rating (450 mA), DC resistance (468mOhm Max), core type (ferrite unshielded drum core), operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 105°C), and package footprint (1210 / 3225 Metric). Both parts are AEC-Q200 rated and ROHS3 compliant. The only difference is packaging format (Cut Tape & Digi-Reel® vs. Tape & Reel) and product status (Active vs. Not For New Designs).

Q: What are the key differences between NLCV32T-100K-EFD and B82422H1103K000?

A: Both parts share the same 10 µH inductance, ±10% tolerance, ferrite unshielded core, and 30MHz self resonant frequency. B82422H1103K000 offers higher current rating (500 mA vs. 450 mA), lower DC resistance (460mOhm vs. 468mOhm), and extended operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 150°C vs. -40°C ~ 105°C). The Q factor at 2.52MHz is lower (12 vs. 15). Package designation differs (2-SMD, J-Lead vs. standard 1210), though physical dimensions remain compatible.

Q: Are there packaging compatibility concerns when substituting these parts?

A: NLCV32T-100K-EFD maintains identical 1210 (3225 Metric) package dimensions and footprint, requiring no PCB layout changes. B82422H1103K000 uses 2-SMD, J-Lead package designation but maintains the same physical dimensions (0.126" L x 0.098" W, 3.20mm x 2.50mm length and width, 0.094" / 2.40mm maximum seated height). Both are surface mount components compatible with standard pick-and-place assembly equipment.

Q: Do all substitute parts meet automotive qualification requirements?

A: Yes. NLCV32T-100K-PFD, NLCV32T-100K-EFD, and B82422H1103K000 all carry AEC-Q200 automotive qualification ratings. All three parts are ROHS3 compliant with Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited), suitable for automotive and industrial applications.

Q: Which substitute should be selected for new designs?

A: NLCV32T-100K-EFD is the recommended choice for new designs. This part carries active product status from TDK Corporation, ensuring sustained manufacturing support and supply chain stability. Electrical specifications are identical to the original component, eliminating design re-qualification requirements.
