Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 13FR005 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Resistance value: 5 mOhms
• Tolerance: ±1%
• Power rating: 3W
• Composition: Metal Element
• Features: Current Sense, Non-Inductive
• Temperature coefficient: ±100ppm/°C
• Operating temperature range: -55°C to 275°C
• Package type: Axial
• Physical dimensions: 0.205" Dia × 0.571" L (5.20mm × 14.50mm)
• Number of terminations: 2

The substitute part 13FR005E meets all electrical and mechanical parameters identical to the main part. Packaging configuration differs (Bulk versus standard packaging), but this does not affect functional compatibility or circuit performance.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the 13FR005 and 13FR005E are active production parts from Ohmite with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. The primary distinction is regulatory compliance: the 13FR005E carries ROHS3 compliance, while the 13FR005 is RoHS non-compliant. Selection between these parts should be based on application regulatory requirements. For applications requiring RoHS3 compliance, the 13FR005E is the appropriate selection. For applications without RoHS compliance mandates, either part is functionally equivalent. Both parts maintain REACH Unaffected status and EAR99 export classification.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 13FR005E be used as a direct replacement for 13FR005?

A: Yes. The 13FR005E is electrically and mechanically identical to the 13FR005. All critical parameters—resistance, tolerance, power rating, temperature coefficient, operating temperature range, and physical dimensions—are equivalent. The parts are interchangeable from a functional standpoint.

Q: What is the difference between 13FR005 and 13FR005E?

A: The primary difference is RoHS compliance status. The 13FR005E is ROHS3 compliant, while the 13FR005 is RoHS non-compliant. Packaging configuration also differs (Bulk for 13FR005E). Electrical performance and mechanical specifications are identical.

Q: Does packaging type affect circuit performance?

A: No. Packaging configuration (Bulk versus standard) does not affect electrical performance or circuit compatibility. Both parts use identical axial package construction with the same physical dimensions and termination configuration.

Q: Are there any temperature or environmental limitations when substituting these parts?

A: No. Both parts operate across the identical temperature range of -55°C to 275°C with the same temperature coefficient of ±100ppm/°C. Environmental operating conditions are equivalent.

Q: Which part should I select for new designs?

A: For new designs, the 13FR005E is recommended if RoHS3 compliance is required by application or regulatory standards. Both parts are active production items with equivalent availability and lead times.
