Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The 90J15RE qualifies as a parametric equivalent to the 90J15R based on the following criteria:

All electrical parameters are identical: 15 Ohm resistance, ±5% tolerance, 11W power rating, ±30ppm/°C temperature coefficient, and wirewound composition. The mechanical specifications match exactly: axial package, 0.343" diameter by 1.811" length, and 2 terminations. Both parts feature flame retardant coating and safety characteristics. The primary distinction is RoHS compliance status: the 90J15R is RoHS non-compliant, while the 90J15RE is ROHS3 compliant. This compliance difference does not affect electrical or mechanical interchangeability.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the 90J15R and 90J15RE are active production components from Ohmite with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Selection between these parts should be based on regulatory and compliance requirements. The 90J15RE is suitable for applications requiring ROHS3 compliance. The 90J15R remains appropriate for applications where RoHS compliance is not mandated. Both parts are in adequate stock levels and maintain equivalent performance characteristics across all specified operating parameters.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 90J15RE be used as a direct replacement for the 90J15R? A: Yes. The 90J15RE is electrically and mechanically identical to the 90J15R. All resistance, tolerance, power rating, temperature coefficient, and physical dimensions are equivalent. The parts are directly interchangeable in circuit applications.

Q: What is the difference between these two part numbers? A: The primary difference is RoHS compliance status. The 90J15R is RoHS non-compliant, while the 90J15RE is ROHS3 compliant. All other specifications are identical.

Q: Are the physical dimensions identical? A: Yes. Both parts measure 0.343" diameter by 1.811" length (8.70mm x 46.00mm) and use the same axial package configuration.

Q: Do these parts have the same temperature coefficient? A: Yes. Both the 90J15R and 90J15RE have a temperature coefficient of ±30ppm/°C.

Q: Which part should I select for new designs? A: Selection depends on your application's compliance requirements. For designs requiring ROHS3 compliance, use the 90J15RE. For applications without RoHS requirements, either part is suitable based on availability and procurement preferences.

Q: Are both parts currently available? A: Yes. The 90J15R has 987 units in stock, and the 90J15RE has 1035 units in stock.
