Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the 23JR15 are determined by strict equivalence in the following parameters:

• Resistance value: 150 mOhms
• Tolerance: ±5%
• Power rating: 3W
• Composition: Wirewound
• Package type: Axial
• Physical dimensions: 0.220" Dia x 0.516" L (5.60mm x 13.10mm)
• Number of terminations: 2
• Series classification: 20

The 23JR15E is classified as a parametric equivalent based on identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Variations in packaging format (Bulk vs. standard) and compliance certifications do not affect functional interchangeability in circuit applications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the 23JR15 and 23JR15E are Active status components suitable for direct substitution based on electrical and mechanical equivalence. The primary distinction is RoHS compliance status: the 23JR15E is RoHS Compliant, while the 23JR15 is RoHS non-compliant. Selection between these parts should be based on regulatory requirements applicable to the end application. Both components carry identical ECCN classification (EAR99) and are manufactured by Ohmite within Series 20.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 23JR15E replace the 23JR15 in existing designs?

A: Yes. The 23JR15E is electrically and mechanically equivalent to the 23JR15. Both components have identical resistance values (150 mOhms), tolerance (±5%), power rating (3W), composition (Wirewound), axial package type, and physical dimensions (0.220" Dia x 0.516" L). Direct substitution is valid from a functional standpoint.

Q: What is the difference between the 23JR15 and 23JR15E?

A: The primary differences are packaging format and RoHS compliance. The 23JR15E is supplied in Bulk packaging and is RoHS Compliant, while the 23JR15 is RoHS non-compliant. Electrical and mechanical specifications are identical.

Q: Are there any compatibility concerns when switching between these parts?

A: No compatibility concerns exist. Both parts are axial wirewound resistors with identical dimensions and termination configuration. They are mechanically and electrically interchangeable in circuit applications.

Q: Which part should I select for new designs?

A: Selection depends on regulatory compliance requirements. For applications requiring RoHS compliance, the 23JR15E is the appropriate choice. Both parts are Active status and suitable for production use.

Q: Do these parts have different temperature or environmental specifications?

A: No temperature coefficient or operating temperature data is provided for either part. Both components feature flame retardant coating and safety classification. Consult the manufacturer datasheet for detailed environmental performance specifications.
