Ohmite 95J3K0 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Ohmite 95J3K0 is a 3 kOhms ±5% 5W through-hole resistor with axial leads, featuring flame retardant coating and safety wirewound construction. This component is classified as Active product status. Substitute parts become necessary when the primary part number reaches end-of-life status, inventory constraints occur, or when alternative series options provide improved compliance certifications or packaging specifications.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the 95J3K0 are qualified based on matching the following critical parameters: resistance value (3 kOhms), tolerance (±5%), power rating (5W), composition (wirewound), package type (axial), and core features (flame retardant coating, safety construction). All substitute parts maintain identical electrical specifications and mechanical compatibility with the original part number.

The 95J3K0 has two qualified substitutes:

• 25J3K0: MFR Recommended substitute from the Ohmite 20 series
• 95J3K0E: Parametric equivalent from the Ohmite 90 series with improved RoHS compliance

Engineering Selection Recommendations

95J3K0E is the preferred substitute when RoHS compliance is required for new designs or regulatory applications. This part maintains identical electrical and mechanical specifications to the original 95J3K0 while providing RoHS Compliant certification and MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating. Both parts are from the Ohmite 90 series and share identical physical dimensions.

25J3K0 serves as the MFR Recommended alternative when series flexibility is acceptable. This part maintains all critical electrical parameters and core features but features slightly larger physical dimensions (0.276" Dia x 1.016" L versus 0.264" Dia x 0.969" L). The 25J3K0 remains RoHS non-compliant, matching the original part's compliance status.

Selection between 95J3K0E and 25J3K0 depends on design constraints: choose 95J3K0E for RoHS-compliant applications or when identical physical dimensions are required; choose 25J3K0 when series diversity is acceptable and RoHS compliance is not a requirement.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 95J3K0E be used as a direct replacement for 95J3K0?

A: Yes. The 95J3K0E provides identical electrical specifications (3 kOhms ±5% 5W), composition (wirewound), package type (axial), and physical dimensions (0.264" Dia x 0.969" L). The primary difference is improved RoHS compliance status.

Q: What are the physical dimension differences between substitutes?

A: The 95J3K0 and 95J3K0E share identical dimensions: 0.264" Dia x 0.969" L (6.70mm x 24.60mm). The 25J3K0 is slightly larger at 0.276" Dia x 1.016" L (7.00mm x 25.80mm). Verify PCB layout clearances if space constraints exist.

Q: Are all substitutes from the same manufacturer?

A: Yes. All three part numbers (95J3K0, 25J3K0, 95J3K0E) are manufactured by Ohmite and maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications for the 3 kOhms ±5% 5W axial wirewound resistor category.

Q: Which substitute should be selected for new product designs?

A: For new designs requiring regulatory compliance, select 95J3K0E due to RoHS Compliant certification. For applications without RoHS requirements, either 95J3K0E or 25J3K0 are acceptable based on series preference and inventory availability.

Q: Do substitutes maintain the same temperature coefficient?

A: Yes. All three part numbers maintain ±30ppm/°C temperature coefficient, ensuring consistent thermal performance across the substitution group.
