Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the 95J3K3 and 95J3K3E are Active status components manufactured by Ohmite with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Selection between these parts is determined by regulatory and compliance requirements:

• 95J3K3: Select for applications where RoHS non-compliant components are acceptable and existing inventory is available.
• 95J3K3E: Select for applications requiring RoHS3 compliance or where improved moisture sensitivity rating (MSL 1) is specified. This variant provides superior regulatory alignment and higher current inventory availability.

Both parts are functionally interchangeable within circuits designed for the specified 3.3 kOhms, 5W, ±5% tolerance parameters.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 95J3K3E replace the 95J3K3 in existing designs?

A: Yes. The 95J3K3E is a direct parametric equivalent with identical resistance, tolerance, power rating, composition, package type, and physical dimensions. The primary difference is RoHS3 compliance status and moisture sensitivity rating.

Q: What is the significance of the RoHS3 compliance difference?

A: RoHS3 compliance indicates the 95J3K3E meets current European Union Restriction of Hazardous Substances regulations. The 95J3K3 is RoHS non-compliant. Selection depends on end-product regulatory requirements and target markets.

Q: Are the physical dimensions identical between both parts?

A: Yes. Both parts measure 0.264" Dia x 0.969" L (6.70mm x 24.60mm) and use identical axial package configuration, ensuring PCB layout compatibility.

Q: What does Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) 1 mean for the 95J3K3E?

A: MSL 1 indicates unlimited shelf life without moisture control requirements. The 95J3K3 lists MSL as Not Applicable, indicating different handling specifications.

Q: Are both parts suitable for the same operating temperature range?

A: Both parts share identical temperature coefficient specifications of ±30ppm/°C. Operating temperature range data was not provided in the component specifications.

Q: Which part should be selected for new designs?

A: Selection is based on regulatory compliance requirements. For applications requiring RoHS3 compliance, the 95J3K3E is the appropriate choice. Both parts are Active status and available in production quantities.
