SWC-3.0-100 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The SWC-3.0-100 is a 100 µH unshielded toroidal inductor manufactured by Amgis, LLC, rated for 3 A continuous current with a maximum DC resistance of 40mOhm. This through-hole component operates across the industrial temperature range of -40°C to 125°C and is ROHS3 compliant. The part is currently active in production with 777 units in stock. Substitute parts are identified when identical electrical specifications and mechanical compatibility are maintained across the same product category.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The SH50C-3.0-100 qualifies as a direct substitute for the SWC-3.0-100 based on strict equivalence of the following critical parameters:

• Inductance value: 100 µH with ±20% tolerance
• Current rating: 3 A continuous
• DC resistance: 40mOhm maximum
• Core material: Iron Powder
• Shielding configuration: Unshielded
• Mounting type: Through Hole
• Package / Case: Radial, Vertical (Open)
• Physical dimensions: 0.949" L x 0.598" W (24.10mm x 15.20mm), Height 1.059" (26.90mm)
• Operating temperature range: -40°C ~ 125°C
• Inductance test frequency: 10 kHz
• Regulatory compliance: ROHS3 Compliant, REACH Unaffected

The primary difference between these parts is packaging format (Bulk versus Tray) and series designation (SW versus SH50), which do not affect electrical or mechanical performance in the application circuit.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the SWC-3.0-100 and SH50C-3.0-100 are active production components from Amgis, LLC with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Selection between these parts should be based on:

• Packaging requirements: SWC-3.0-100 is supplied in Bulk packaging; SH50C-3.0-100 is supplied in Tray packaging
• Inventory availability: SH50C-3.0-100 has 813 units in stock versus 777 units for SWC-3.0-100
• Supply chain logistics: Tray packaging may be preferred for automated assembly processes, while Bulk packaging may be suitable for manual assembly or kit applications

Both parts meet ROHS3 and REACH compliance requirements and are suitable for applications requiring 100 µH inductance at 3 A continuous current with iron powder core construction.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can SH50C-3.0-100 be used as a direct replacement for SWC-3.0-100 in existing designs?

A: Yes. The SH50C-3.0-100 is electrically and mechanically identical to the SWC-3.0-100. All critical parameters including inductance, current rating, DC resistance, core material, dimensions, and operating temperature range are equivalent. The only difference is packaging format.

Q: What is the significance of the packaging difference between Bulk and Tray?

A: Packaging format affects supply chain handling and assembly processes. Bulk packaging is typically used for manual assembly or smaller production runs. Tray packaging is designed for automated pick-and-place equipment and higher-volume manufacturing. Electrical and mechanical performance are unaffected by packaging format.

Q: Are both parts compliant with environmental regulations?

A: Yes. Both SWC-3.0-100 and SH50C-3.0-100 are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current environmental and hazardous substance restrictions.

Q: What determines substitutability for this inductor category?

A: Substitutability is determined by equivalence in inductance value and tolerance, current rating, DC resistance, core material, shielding configuration, mounting type, package case style, physical dimensions, and operating temperature range. Deviations in any of these parameters would disqualify a part as a direct substitute.

Q: Can these parts be used interchangeably in PCB designs?

A: Yes. Identical physical dimensions (0.949" L x 0.598" W, 1.059" height) and through-hole radial mounting configuration ensure mechanical compatibility with the same PCB footprint and assembly process.
