Is there a pin-compatible replacement for LQM2HPN2R2MG0L?

No pin-compatible replacement has been verified. While some parts exist in the same 1008 package, they have different electrical characteristics like inductance or operating temperature that require engineering validation before use.

What risks should I check before replacing LQM2HPN2R2MG0L?

Key risks include: 1) Package mismatch requiring PCB layout changes. 2) Higher DC Resistance (DCR) causing increased power loss and heat. 3) Different inductance values affecting circuit performance. 4) Reduced operating temperature range.

LQM2HPN2R2MG0L Alternatives, Datasheet & Cross Reference | Murata Manufacturing Co., Ltd.

LQM2HPN2R2MG0L is a 2.2µH, 1.3A shielded power inductor in a 1008 package. Finding a direct drop-in replacement requires matching inductance, DCR, current rating, and package size. Alternatives may require layout changes or have different performance characteristics.

AI replacement insight

Package riskhigh

One candidate has a smaller package requiring a new PCB layout.

Electrical riskhigh

Candidates have significantly different DCR, inductance, or temperature ratings.

Sourcing riskmedium

Limited options mean compromises are likely necessary.

Can it be replaced directly?

No direct, drop-in replacement has been identified. All candidates have significant trade-offs in package, DCR, or inductance.

Best replacement path

Functional alternate requiring PCB redesign or parametric alternative with performance trade-offs.

Main risk

Package mismatch and increased power loss from higher DCR are the primary risks with available alternatives.

Recommended alternatives

Functional alternate with same inductance and higher current, but in a smaller 0805 package with significantly higher DCR.
