SC62CB-100 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The SC62CB-100 is a 10 µH shielded surface mount inductor manufactured by Signal Transformer, rated for 1.82 A continuous current with a maximum DC resistance of 80mOhm. This component is classified as Active product status and is RoHS3 compliant. Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical performance and mechanical compatibility are required due to inventory constraints, lead time considerations, or design optimization needs while maintaining the same inductance value, tolerance, current rating parameters, and surface mount package compatibility.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the SC62CB-100 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Inductance value must equal 10 µH with ±20% tolerance
• Current rating must meet or exceed 1.82 A continuous operation
• DC resistance must not exceed 80mOhm to maintain circuit performance
• Shielding configuration must be shielded to preserve electromagnetic isolation
• Operating temperature range must encompass -40°C to 125°C
• Mounting type must be surface mount for PCB compatibility
• RoHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status required for regulatory alignment
• Inductance test frequency must be 100 kHz

The DR73-100-R qualifies as a direct substitute based on these parameters. While package dimensions differ slightly, both components maintain surface mount compatibility and equivalent electrical performance within the specified tolerance bands.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both SC62CB-100 and DR73-100-R are Active product status components with full RoHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected designation, meeting current regulatory requirements for electronic component procurement.

The DR73-100-R demonstrates superior electrical performance with higher current rating (2.08 A vs. 1.82 A), higher saturation current (2.47 A vs. 1.07 A), and lower DC resistance (65.6mOhm vs. 80mOhm). These characteristics provide additional design margin in current-limited applications.

Package dimension differences (7.60mm × 7.60mm × 4.65mm for DR73-100-R versus 6.30mm × 6.20mm × 2.50mm for SC62CB-100) require PCB layout verification to confirm footprint compatibility. Both components maintain surface mount configuration and identical moisture sensitivity classification.

Selection between these parts should be based on PCB space constraints, current margin requirements, and supplier availability. Both satisfy the core electrical and regulatory requirements for 10 µH shielded inductor applications operating within the -40°C to 125°C temperature range.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can DR73-100-R replace SC62CB-100 in existing designs?

A: Yes, provided PCB layout accommodates the larger package dimensions (7.60mm × 7.60mm × 4.65mm). Electrical parameters are compatible: both maintain 10 µH inductance at ±20% tolerance, operate across -40°C to 125°C, and meet RoHS3 compliance. The DR73-100-R offers improved current handling (2.08 A vs. 1.82 A) and lower DC resistance (65.6mOhm vs. 80mOhm).

Q: What are the critical substitution criteria for these inductors?

A: Substitution requires matching inductance (10 µH ±20%), shielding configuration (shielded), mounting type (surface mount), operating temperature range (-40°C to 125°C), and regulatory compliance (RoHS3, REACH unaffected). Current rating and DC resistance must meet or exceed the original specification.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: Yes. SC62CB-100 is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) packaging, while DR73-100-R uses Cut Tape (CT) & Digi-Reel® packaging. Both are surface mount compatible. Physical dimensions differ: SC62CB-100 measures 6.30mm × 6.20mm × 2.50mm; DR73-100-R measures 7.60mm × 7.60mm × 4.65mm.

Q: Do both parts meet the same regulatory standards?

A: Yes. Both SC62CB-100 and DR73-100-R are RoHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, classified as Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited), and carry EAR99 ECCN designation.

Q: What is the inductance test frequency for these components?

A: Both components are tested at 100 kHz inductance frequency, ensuring consistent measurement conditions for the 10 µH specification.
