Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the Ohmite 23J2K7 are qualified based on strict equivalence of the following electrical and mechanical parameters:

• Resistance value: 2.7 kOhms
• Tolerance: ±5%
• Power rating: 3W
• Composition: Wirewound
• Package configuration: Axial
• Physical dimensions: 0.220" Dia x 0.516" L (5.60mm x 13.10mm)
• Temperature coefficient: ±30ppm/°C
• Safety features: Flame retardant coating

The substitute part 23J2K7E meets all these criteria and is therefore electrically and mechanically interchangeable with the main part number.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the 23J2K7 and 23J2K7E are Active status components manufactured by Ohmite with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. The primary distinction is regulatory compliance: the 23J2K7E achieves ROHS3 compliance, while the 23J2K7 is RoHS non-compliant. Selection between these parts should be based on application requirements for RoHS compliance and packaging format (bulk packaging for 23J2K7E versus standard packaging for 23J2K7). Both components maintain equivalent performance in circuits requiring 2.7 kOhms ±5% 3W wirewound resistors with axial configuration.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are the 23J2K7 and 23J2K7E electrically identical?

A: Yes. Both parts have identical resistance (2.7 kOhms), tolerance (±5%), power rating (3W), temperature coefficient (±30ppm/°C), and wirewound composition with flame retardant coating.

Q: What is the difference between these two part numbers?

A: The primary difference is RoHS compliance status. The 23J2K7E is ROHS3 compliant, while the 23J2K7 is RoHS non-compliant. The 23J2K7E is supplied in bulk packaging. Both are manufactured by Ohmite in the same Series 20.

Q: Can I use 23J2K7E as a direct replacement for 23J2K7?

A: Yes, for applications where RoHS compliance is not a requirement. The parts are mechanically and electrically interchangeable due to identical dimensions (0.220" Dia x 0.516" L), axial package configuration, and all electrical parameters.

Q: Should I select based on RoHS compliance?

A: Selection should be based on your application's regulatory requirements. If RoHS3 compliance is mandatory, use 23J2K7E. If RoHS compliance is not required, either part is suitable.

Q: Are the physical dimensions identical?

A: Yes. Both parts measure 0.220" Dia x 0.516" L (5.60mm x 13.10mm) and use axial leads with 2 terminations, ensuring identical PCB footprint and mounting compatibility.
