Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Ohmite 23J10KE provides full electrical and mechanical compatibility with the 23J10K. Selection between these parts should be based on the following factors:

• RoHS compliance requirements: The 23J10KE is ROHS3 compliant, while the 23J10K is non-compliant. Applications subject to RoHS regulations require the 23J10KE variant.
• Inventory availability: The 23J10KE has significantly higher stock levels (6307 units) compared to the 23J10K (727 units), supporting supply chain continuity for high-volume production.
• REACH and ECCN classifications are identical for both parts, indicating no additional regulatory differentiation.

Both parts maintain identical electrical performance, thermal characteristics, and physical form factor, ensuring direct substitution without circuit redesign or board layout modification.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 23J10KE be used as a direct replacement for the 23J10K in existing designs?

A: Yes. The 23J10KE is electrically and mechanically equivalent to the 23J10K across all specified parameters, including resistance, tolerance, power rating, temperature coefficient, and physical dimensions. No circuit modifications are required.

Q: What is the difference between the 23J10K and 23J10KE?

A: The primary difference is RoHS compliance status. The 23J10KE is ROHS3 compliant, while the 23J10K is non-compliant. Both parts are functionally identical in electrical performance and physical form factor.

Q: Does RoHS compliance affect the performance of the resistor?

A: No. RoHS compliance relates to material composition and environmental regulations, not electrical or thermal performance. Both parts deliver identical resistance, tolerance, power dissipation, and temperature coefficient characteristics.

Q: Are the physical dimensions identical between the two parts?

A: Yes. Both the 23J10K and 23J10KE have identical axial package dimensions of 0.220" diameter by 0.516" length (5.60mm x 13.10mm), ensuring compatibility with existing PCB layouts and mechanical assemblies.

Q: Which part should be selected for new designs?

A: For applications subject to RoHS regulations or requiring compliance with modern environmental standards, the 23J10KE is the appropriate selection. For applications without RoHS requirements, either part is suitable based on availability and cost considerations.
