Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the 90J680 and 90J680E are active production components from Ohmite with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Selection between these parts should be based on the following factors:

90J680E Selection Criteria:

  • Applications requiring ROHS3 compliance
  • Projects with REACH compliance requirements
  • Bulk packaging requirements for high-volume production
  • Higher inventory availability (1143 units in stock)

90J680 Selection Criteria:

  • Applications where RoHS compliance is not a requirement
  • Standard packaging requirements
  • Existing supply chain integration with standard packaging

Both parts are functionally interchangeable in circuit applications due to identical electrical parameters, power rating, tolerance, and physical dimensions.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are the 90J680 and 90J680E electrically identical? A: Yes. Both parts have identical resistance (680 Ohms), tolerance (±5%), power rating (11W), temperature coefficient (±30ppm/°C), and wirewound composition.

Q: What is the difference between these two part numbers? A: The primary difference is packaging configuration. The 90J680E is supplied in bulk packaging, while the 90J680 uses standard packaging. Additionally, the 90J680E carries ROHS3 compliance and REACH Unaffected status, whereas the 90J680 is RoHS non-compliant.

Q: Can I use 90J680E as a direct replacement for 90J680? A: Yes, from an electrical and mechanical standpoint. However, verify compliance requirements for your application, as the 90J680E offers ROHS3 compliance while the 90J680 does not.

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

Q: Which part should I select for new designs? A: For new designs, the 90J680E is recommended due to ROHS3 compliance and REACH Unaffected status, ensuring compatibility with current regulatory requirements.

Q: Does packaging affect circuit performance? A: No. Packaging differences do not affect electrical performance or thermal characteristics. Selection should be based on supply chain requirements and compliance needs.
