Find and compare suitable replacements for the TDK MLP2016H2R2MT0S1, a 2.2µH power inductor. This guide analyzes alternatives based on key electrical and physical parameters.

AI replacement insight

Electrical riskmedium

Mismatched DCR or current ratings can affect circuit performance and reliability.

Package risklow

All candidates share the 2016 package, ensuring physical compatibility.

Can it be replaced directly?

Sunltech SLM20162R2MIT is a very close parametric match, but requires verification of its saturation current. No drop-in replacement is confirmed without full datasheet review.

Best replacement path

Sunlord MWTC201608S2R2MT is an excellent upgrade, offering much higher current ratings while matching the DCR and package.

Main risk

The main risk is selecting a part with higher DC resistance (DCR), which increases power loss, or a lower temperature rating.
