MPN Structure

   |      |      |        |       |          |
   |      |      |        |       |          +-- Termination code (NC, MC, etc.)
   |      |      |        |       +-- Tolerance: M=+/-20%, N=+/-30%, J=+/-5%
   |      |      |        +-- Inductance value (R-notation: 4R7 = 4.7uH)
   |      |      +-- Optional suffix (NP=Non-magnetic, etc.)
   |      +-- Size code (series-dependent encoding)
   +-- Series prefix (CDRH, CDR, CDEP, CR, CLF, etc.)

Example Decoding

Size Code Reference by Series

CDRH Series Size Codes

CDRH uses format [L]D[H] where L=length/width, D=delimiter, H=height:

| Code | Dimensions (L x W x H) | Notes | |------|------------------------|-------| | 4D28 | 4.0mm x 4.0mm x 2.8mm | Compact | | 6D28 | 6.0mm x 6.0mm x 2.8mm | Standard | | 8D43 | 8.0mm x 8.0mm x 4.3mm | Higher current | | 10D43 | 10.0mm x 10.0mm x 4.3mm | High current | | 12D58 | 12.0mm x 12.0mm x 5.8mm | Very high current |

Height decoding: 28 = 2.8mm, 43 = 4.3mm, 58 = 5.8mm

CDR Series Size Codes

CDR uses diameter encoding:

| Code | Diameter | Notes | |------|----------|-------| | 74 | 7.4mm | Standard | | 104 | 10.4mm | Higher current | | 125 | 12.5mm | High current | | 127 | 12.7mm | Alternative 12.5mm |

Package Code Extraction

The handler extracts and decodes size codes to human-readable dimensions:

| MPN | Extracted Package | |-----|-------------------| | CDRH6D28NP-4R7NC | 6x6x2.8mm | | CDRH4D28NP-1R5NC | 4x4x2.8mm | | CDRH8D43NP-100MC | 8x8x4.3mm | | CDR74NP-100MC | 7.4mm | | CDR125NP-220MC | 12.5mm | | CDEP104NP-1R5MC | 10x10x4mm | | CDEP105NP-4R7MC | 10x10x5mm | | CR21-100JM | 2.1mm | | CLF10040-470MC | 10x10x4.0mm |

---

Series Extraction

The handler extracts the series prefix (without size code):

| MPN | Extracted Series | |-----|------------------| | CDRH6D28NP-4R7NC | CDRH | | CDRH4D28NP-1R5NC | CDRH | | CDR125NP-100MC | CDR | | CDEP104NP-1R5MC | CDEP | | CDEF38NP-100MC | CDEF | | CR21-100JM | CR | | RCH110NP-1R0MC | RCH | | CEP105NP-4R7MC | CEP | | CDC2G2NP-100MC | CDC | | CLF10040-470MC | CLF |

Series Extraction Order (Important)

Due to prefix overlap, series must be checked in this order:

1. CDRH (before CDR)
2. CDEP (before CDE)
3. CDEF (before CDE)
4. CDC
5. CDR (generic CD prefix)
6. CLF
7. CR
8. RCH
9. CEP

Supported Component Types

The SumidaHandler supports:

• ComponentType.INDUCTOR - Base inductor type

Note: Sumida does not have a manufacturer-specific inductor type (e.g., INDUCTOR_SUMIDA) in this codebase.

Handler Implementation Notes

Pattern Matching

// Sumida patterns have series-specific structures:
// CDRH series: CDRH + size code (nDnn format) + optional suffix + hyphen + value
"^CDRH[0-9]+[A-Z]?[0-9]*[A-Z]*-?[0-9R]+[A-Z]*$"

// CDR drum core: CDR + size code (2-3 digits) + optional suffix + hyphen + value
"^CDR[0-9]+[A-Z]*-?[0-9R]+[A-Z]*$"

// CR chip: CR + size (2 digits) + hyphen + value
"^CR[0-9]+[A-Z]*-?[0-9R]+[A-Z]*$"

// Combined pattern for quick Sumida detection:
"^(CDRH|CDR|CDEP|CDEF|CR|RCH|CEP|CDC|CLF)[0-9A-Z]+-?[0-9R]*[A-Z]*$"

Inductance Value Extraction

The handler includes extractInductanceValue() method that:

1. Finds the value portion after the hyphen
2. Parses R-notation (4R7 = 4.7uH, R47 = 0.47uH, 10R = 10uH)
3. Parses EIA 3-digit code (100 = 10uH, 101 = 100uH)
4. Returns formatted string (e.g., "4.7uH", "10uH")

Official Replacement Check

Two Sumida parts are considered official replacements if:

1. Same series (e.g., both CDRH)
2. Same inductance value (e.g., both 4.7uH)

Different size codes, tolerances, or termination options are NOT automatic replacements because they affect electrical performance and footprint compatibility.

Utility Methods

The handler provides additional helper methods:

// Check if MPN is a Sumida inductor
boolean isSumidaInductor(String mpn)

// Get human-readable inductor type description
String getInductorTypeDescription(String mpn)
// Returns: "SMD Power Inductor", "Drum Core Inductor", etc.

Learnings & Edge Cases

• Hyphen is optional: MPNs may appear as CDRH6D28NP-4R7NC or CDRH6D28NP4R7NC
• R-notation ambiguity: 10R means 10uH (R as terminator), but 1R0 also means 1.0uH (R as decimal)
• NP suffix common: Most Sumida inductors use NP (non-magnetic) suffix before the value separator
• CDC series alphanumeric: CDC series uses alphanumeric size codes (e.g., CDC2G2) unlike numeric-only codes in other series
• CDRH vs CDR prefix: CDRH is the SMD variant, CDR is drum core - pattern matching must check CDRH first to avoid false CDR match
• Series check order matters: Due to prefix overlaps (CDRH/CDR, CDEP/CDEF/CDC), check longer prefixes before shorter ones
• Height encoding varies: CDRH uses 2-digit encoding (28=2.8mm), CDEP uses 1-digit (4=4mm), CLF uses 2-digit different format
• getSupportedTypes() uses Set.of(): Handler correctly uses immutable Set.of() pattern (not HashSet)
• No manufacturer-specific type: Unlike some handlers, Sumida only uses base INDUCTOR type, not INDUCTOR_SUMIDA

Common MPN Variants

CDRH6D28NP-4R7NC   - Standard shielded SMD
CDRH6D28NP-4R7MC   - Magnetic terminals
CDRH6D28-4R7NC    - No NP suffix
CDRH6D284R7NC     - No hyphen separator

Size Code Decoding Edge Cases

The size code decoding assumes specific formats:

• CDRH: [L]D[HH] - Letter D is always delimiter, not "10" like "10D43"
• CDR: Pure numeric diameter
• CDEP: [WW][H] - First 2 digits are width, last is height
• CLF: [LL][WW][H] - Format may vary for different sizes

When decoding produces unexpected results, verify against datasheet.
