Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the SCRH124-101 are qualified based on the following electrical and mechanical parameters:

Primary Substitution Criteria:

  • Inductance value: 100 µH ±20%
  • DC Resistance: 308mOhm maximum
  • Current Rating: minimum 1.36 A
  • Shielding configuration: Shielded
  • Operating temperature range: -40°C minimum to 125°C maximum
  • Mounting type: Surface Mount
  • Package footprint: 12.50mm x 12.50mm base dimensions
  • RoHS3 compliance

Substitute Classification:

DR124-101-R (Eaton - Electronics Division) qualifies as a direct substitute. This part maintains 100 µH inductance at ±20% tolerance, 308mOhm maximum DCR, shielded configuration, and surface mount compatibility. Current rating of 1.5 A exceeds the 1.36 A requirement. Operating temperature range of -40°C ~ 125°C matches the main part specification. Package dimensions of 12.50mm x 12.50mm x 4.50mm are identical.

UP2B-101-R (Eaton - Electronics Division) is listed as an alternative but does not fully meet substitution criteria. While it maintains 100 µH inductance and ±20% tolerance, it is unshielded (versus shielded requirement), has a lower current rating of 1.2 A (below 1.36 A requirement), and operates only to 85°C maximum (below 125°C requirement). Package dimensions also differ at 13.97mm x 10.41mm x 6.00mm.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

DR124-101-R is the qualified substitute for SCRH124-101 applications. Both parts maintain Active product status and RoHS3 compliance. The DR124-101-R provides equivalent electrical performance with identical inductance, tolerance, and DC resistance specifications. The higher current rating of 1.5 A provides additional margin above the 1.36 A requirement. Identical package footprint and height ensure mechanical compatibility in existing PCB layouts. Operating temperature range matches the main part specification across the full -40°C to 125°C range.

UP2B-101-R does not qualify as a substitute for applications requiring shielded inductors or operating at temperatures above 85°C. The unshielded configuration introduces electromagnetic coupling differences. The 1.2 A current rating falls below the 1.36 A requirement. The reduced operating temperature maximum of 85°C restricts use in applications requiring the full -40°C to 125°C range. Package dimension differences require PCB layout modification.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can DR124-101-R replace SCRH124-101 in existing designs without PCB modification?

A: Yes. DR124-101-R maintains identical package footprint (12.50mm x 12.50mm) and height (4.50mm maximum), enabling direct PCB substitution without layout changes.

Q: What is the primary difference between DR124-101-R and UP2B-101-R?

A: DR124-101-R is shielded with a 1.5 A current rating and full -40°C to 125°C temperature range. UP2B-101-R is unshielded with a 1.2 A current rating and limited -40°C to 85°C temperature range. These differences affect electromagnetic isolation and thermal performance.

Q: Why is UP2B-101-R listed if it does not meet substitution criteria?

A: UP2B-101-R is documented as an alternative option for applications where shielding is not required, current demand does not exceed 1.2 A, and operating temperature remains below 85°C. It is not a direct substitute for the SCRH124-101 specification.

Q: Are all substitute parts RoHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. Both DR124-101-R and UP2B-101-R are RoHS3 compliant with MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited), matching the main part SCRH124-101 compliance status.

Q: What is the saturation current difference between the main part and DR124-101-R?

A: SCRH124-101 has saturation current (Isat) of 1.2A, while DR124-101-R has 1.79A. The higher saturation current in DR124-101-R provides additional headroom before inductance degradation occurs under peak current conditions.

Q: Can packaging format differences affect component procurement?

A: Yes. SCRH124-101 is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format. DR124-101-R is supplied in Cut Tape (CT) & Digi-Reel® format. UP2B-101-R is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format. Packaging format may affect minimum order quantities and lead times but does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility.
