Sunlord
Same family part with matching 0402 package and current, but inductance is 56nH. Check application tolerance.
Finding a substitute for the Sunlord SDCL1005C68NJTDF 68nH inductor involves balancing electrical parameters and package size. This guide reviews alternatives for various design constraints.
Using a part with lower current rating or different inductance can cause failure or malfunction.
Using a different package size requires a PCB redesign, increasing cost and effort.
No exact drop-in replacement with identical or better specs was found. VHF100505HQ68NJT matches inductance and package but has a lower current rating, requiring careful review.
For a drop-in replacement, prioritize parts in the same 0402 package, but carefully check current ratings. For new designs, larger packages may offer better electrical performance.
The primary risk is substituting with a part that has a lower current rating or a different inductance value, which can affect circuit performance and reliability.

| Feature / factor | SDCL1005C68NJTDF | SDCL1005C56NJTDF | VHF201209H68NJT | VHF100505HQ68NJT | Compatibility / risk |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Package | 0402 (1005 Metric) | 0402 (1005 Metric) | 0805 | 0402 | 0402 (1005 Metric) / 0805 — Package size matches.; VHF201209H68NJT: Larger package requires PCB redesign.; VHF100505HQ68NJT: Package size matches.; VHF100505HQ82NJT: Package size matches. |
| Inductance | 68 nH | 56 nH | 68 nH | 68 nH | 56 nH / 68 nH / 82 nH — Inductance is ~18% lower.; VHF201209H68NJT: Inductance matches.; VHF100505HQ68NJT: Inductance matches.; VHF100505HQ82NJT: Inductance is ~20% higher. |
| Current | 200 mA | 200 mA | 300 mA | 180 mA | 200 mA / 300 mA / 180 mA — Current rating matches.; VHF201209H68NJT: Higher current rating is an upgrade.; VHF100505HQ68NJT: Lower current rating is a critical risk.; VHF100505HQ82NJT: Current rating matches. |
| Dcr | 1.1 Ω | 1.2 Ω | 0.8 Ω | 1.4 Ω | 1.2 Ω / 0.8 Ω / 1.4 Ω / 1.6 Ω — DCR is slightly higher.; VHF201209H68NJT: Lower DCR reduces power loss.; VHF100505HQ68NJT: Higher DCR increases power loss.; VHF100505HQ82NJT: Higher DCR increases power loss. |
The best alternative depends on your design constraints. For matching inductance in the same package, VHF100505HQ68NJT is an option, but has a lower current rating. If board space allows, VHF201209H68NJT offers better performance in a larger 0805 package.
