Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the SDR0703-8R2M is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

  • Inductance value: 8.2 µH
  • Inductance tolerance: ±20%
  • Current rating: 1.1 A minimum
  • Saturation current: 1.5 A minimum
  • DC resistance: 150 mOhm maximum
  • Core material: Ferrite
  • Shielding configuration: Unshielded
  • Operating temperature range: -40°C to 125°C minimum
  • Mounting type: Surface Mount
  • Physical dimensions: 6.50 mm × 4.50 mm × 2.70 mm maximum

The SDR0703-8R2ML meets all specified parameters and qualifies as a direct substitute. The primary distinction between these parts is product status and packaging configuration.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The SDR0703-8R2ML is the direct equivalent substitute for the obsolete SDR0703-8R2M. Both parts are manufactured by Bourns Inc. within the SDR0703 series and maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters.

The SDR0703-8R2ML carries Active product status, ensuring continued availability and supply chain reliability. Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and are unaffected by REACH regulations, satisfying regulatory requirements for current applications.

The primary operational difference is packaging configuration: the SDR0703-8R2M uses nonstandard packaging, while the SDR0703-8R2ML is supplied in Tape & Reel format. This distinction affects procurement and assembly processes but does not impact electrical performance or thermal characteristics.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the SDR0703-8R2ML be used as a direct replacement for the SDR0703-8R2M?

A: Yes. The SDR0703-8R2ML is electrically and mechanically equivalent to the SDR0703-8R2M across all specified parameters, including inductance, current rating, DC resistance, core material, and operating temperature range.

Q: What is the difference between these two part numbers?

A: The SDR0703-8R2M is classified as obsolete, while the SDR0703-8R2ML is active. The SDR0703-8R2ML is supplied in Tape & Reel packaging, whereas the SDR0703-8R2M uses nonstandard packaging. Electrical specifications are identical.

Q: Are there any compliance or certification differences?

A: No. Both parts are ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and carry identical moisture sensitivity ratings (MSL 1 - Unlimited). Regulatory status is equivalent.

Q: What are the critical parameters for substitution?

A: Substitution requires matching inductance (8.2 µH ±20%), current rating (1.1 A), saturation current (1.5 A), DC resistance (150 mOhm maximum), ferrite core material, unshielded configuration, and surface mount package dimensions (6.50 mm × 4.50 mm × 2.70 mm).

Q: Does packaging format affect circuit performance?

A: No. Tape & Reel packaging is a supply and assembly convenience format. It does not alter electrical characteristics, thermal performance, or frequency response of the inductor.
