Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the Ohmite 23J820 are qualified based on the following criteria:

• Identical resistance value: 820 Ohms
• Matching tolerance: ±5%
• Equal power rating: 3W
• Same composition: Wirewound
• Identical package configuration: Axial
• Matching temperature coefficient: ±30ppm/°C
• Equivalent physical dimensions: 0.220" Dia x 0.516" L
• Same number of terminations: 2
• Equivalent safety and flame retardant features

The substitute part 23J820E meets all these criteria and is therefore electrically and mechanically interchangeable with the primary part number.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the 23J820 and 23J820E are Active product status components manufactured by Ohmite with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. The primary distinction is regulatory compliance: the 23J820E achieves ROHS3 compliance, while the 23J820 is RoHS non-compliant. Selection between these parts should be based on application regulatory requirements. For applications requiring RoHS3 compliance, the 23J820E is the appropriate selection. For applications without RoHS compliance mandates, either part provides equivalent functional performance. Both components carry EAR99 export classification and are REACH Unaffected.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 23J820E be used as a direct replacement for the 23J820?

A: Yes. The 23J820E is electrically and mechanically identical to the 23J820, with all core parameters matching: 820 Ohms resistance, ±5% tolerance, 3W power rating, wirewound composition, axial package, and identical physical dimensions. Direct substitution is valid from a functional standpoint.

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

A: The primary difference is RoHS compliance status. The 23J820E is ROHS3 compliant, while the 23J820 is RoHS non-compliant. All other electrical, mechanical, and performance characteristics are identical.

Q: Does packaging differ between 23J820 and 23J820E?

A: The 23J820 is supplied in standard packaging, while the 23J820E is supplied in Bulk packaging. Both maintain identical component specifications and axial lead configuration.

Q: Are there inventory considerations when selecting between these parts?

A: The 23J820 has 881 pieces in stock, while the 23J820E has 999 pieces in stock. Availability may influence selection based on project timeline requirements.

Q: Which part should be selected for new designs?

A: Selection depends on regulatory requirements. For designs requiring RoHS3 compliance, specify the 23J820E. For applications without RoHS compliance mandates, either part is functionally equivalent.
