Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the 90J6R8 are qualified based on the following critical parameters that determine functional equivalence:

• Resistance value: 6.8 Ohms (exact match required)
• Tolerance: ±5% (exact match required)
• Power rating: 11W (exact match required)
• Composition: Wirewound (exact match required)
• Package type: Axial through-hole (exact match required)
• Termination count: 2 (exact match required)
• Manufacturer: Ohmite (same manufacturer ensures design consistency)
• RoHS compliance status: RoHS non-compliant (matching regulatory classification)

The 90J6R8E qualifies as a parametric equivalent based on these core electrical and mechanical specifications. Both parts share identical resistance, tolerance, power rating, composition, and package configuration, ensuring direct functional substitution in circuit applications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the 90J6R8 and 90J6R8E maintain active product status with current manufacturing support. Selection between these parts should be based on:

• Inventory availability: The 90J6R8 has 1161 units in stock versus 1034 units for the 90J6R8E
• Packaging format: The 90J6R8 is supplied in standard packaging while the 90J6R8E is supplied in bulk packaging
• Regulatory compliance: Both parts carry identical RoHS non-compliant status, suitable for applications where RoHS exemptions apply
• ECCN and HTSUS classifications: Both parts share identical export control and tariff classifications (EAR99 and 8533.21.0080)

For applications requiring flame retardant coating specifications, verify that the 90J6R8E meets the same safety construction requirements as the primary part before substitution.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 90J6R8E be used as a direct replacement for the 90J6R8?

A: Yes. Both parts are manufactured by Ohmite with identical electrical specifications (6.8 Ohms, ±5%, 11W) and axial through-hole package configuration. They are functionally equivalent for circuit applications requiring these parameters.

Q: What is the difference between the 90J6R8 and 90J6R8E?

A: The primary differences are packaging format (standard versus bulk) and inventory levels. The 90J6R8 is supplied in standard packaging with 1161 units available, while the 90J6R8E is supplied in bulk packaging with 1034 units available. Electrical and mechanical specifications are identical.

Q: Are there any compliance differences between these parts?

A: No. Both parts carry identical RoHS non-compliant status and share the same ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8533.21.0080) classifications.

Q: What packaging options are available?

A: The 90J6R8 is available in standard packaging, while the 90J6R8E is available in bulk packaging. Both use axial through-hole configuration suitable for PCB insertion.

Q: Can these parts be used in RoHS-compliant applications?

A: No. Both the 90J6R8 and 90J6R8E are RoHS non-compliant and are not suitable for applications requiring RoHS compliance.
