SC3316F-150 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The SC3316F-150 is a 15 µH unshielded wirewound surface mount inductor manufactured by Signal Transformer. Rated for 3.1 A continuous current with a maximum DC resistance of 56 mOhm, this component is designed for applications requiring fixed inductance in compact form factors. The part maintains Active product status and is RoHS3 compliant. Substitute parts may be required due to inventory constraints, lead time considerations, or specific application requirements within the defined electrical and mechanical parameter ranges.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the SC3316F-150 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Inductance Value: Must be 15 µH with ±20% tolerance
• Current Rating: Minimum 3.1 A continuous current capability
• DC Resistance: Maximum 56 mOhm to maintain electrical performance
• Shielding Configuration: Unshielded wirewound construction
• Mounting Type: Surface mount package
• Operating Temperature: Minimum range of -40°C ~ 125°C
• Compliance: RoHS3 compliant status

The P0751.153NLT from Pulse Electronics meets these substitution criteria with equivalent inductance, compatible current ratings, and comparable DC resistance specifications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the SC3316F-150 and P0751.153NLT maintain Active product status and RoHS3 compliance. The P0751.153NLT offers a marginally lower DC resistance specification (55 mOhm versus 56 mOhm) and an extended operating temperature range to 130°C. The continuous current rating of the P0751.153NLT is 3 A compared to 3.1 A for the SC3316F-150; this represents a 3.2% reduction in rated current capacity. Both parts are rated for identical saturation current of 3 A. Selection between these parts should be based on application current requirements and thermal operating conditions within the specified ranges.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the P0751.153NLT replace the SC3316F-150 in all applications?

A: The P0751.153NLT is electrically equivalent for applications operating at or below 3 A continuous current. Applications requiring the full 3.1 A rating of the SC3316F-150 require verification that the 3 A rating of the P0751.153NLT is acceptable for the specific design.

Q: What are the physical dimension differences between these parts?

A: The SC3316F-150 measures 0.530" L x 0.390" W x 0.205" H (13.45mm x 9.90mm x 5.21mm). The P0751.153NLT measures 0.510" L x 0.370" W x 0.215" H (12.95mm x 9.40mm x 5.46mm). Both are nonstandard package sizes; PCB layout verification is required when substituting.

Q: Are both parts available in the same packaging format?

A: Both the SC3316F-150 and P0751.153NLT are supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) packaging for automated assembly processes.

Q: What is the significance of the ±20% inductance tolerance?

A: The ±20% tolerance means the actual inductance value may range from 12 µH to 18 µH. Both parts share this tolerance specification, ensuring equivalent inductance performance within the defined range.

Q: Do both parts have identical moisture sensitivity requirements?

A: Both parts are rated MSL 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions during storage or handling.
