The substitution is valid across all electrical and mechanical parameters specified for this product category.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the PM428S-150-RC and SRR4028-150Y maintain active product status from Bourns Inc. and carry identical ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected certifications. Selection between these parts should be based on availability, packaging requirements, and supply chain logistics. Both components satisfy the electrical and mechanical requirements for 15 µH shielded drum core wirewound inductor applications with 1.03 A current handling capability. The parts are electrically and mechanically interchangeable within the specified parameters.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can SRR4028-150Y replace PM428S-150-RC in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical specifications (15 µH inductance, 1.03 A current rating, 150mOhm DCR), core material (ferrite), shielding, frequency characteristics, and physical dimensions (0.189" x 0.189" x 0.118" max height). Both are surface mount components with matching thermal and compliance ratings.

Q: Are there package differences between these parts?

A: Both parts are supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) packaging. The PM428S-150-RC uses a nonstandard package designation, while the SRR4028-150Y specifies 1919 (4848 Metric) package classification. Physical footprint and mounting characteristics remain identical.

Q: Do these parts have the same thermal performance?

A: Yes. Both components operate across -40°C to 125°C and share identical Q factor (9.66 @ 2.52MHz) and self-resonant frequency (27MHz) specifications.

Q: What compliance certifications apply to both parts?

A: Both PM428S-150-RC and SRR4028-150Y are ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, classified as EAR99, and carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity ratings.

Q: Are there any electrical parameter differences?

A: No. Inductance value, tolerance, current rating, saturation current, DC resistance, and frequency characteristics are identical across both parts.
