Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The Ohmite 95J620E qualifies as a parametric equivalent based on the following criteria:

• Identical resistance value: 620 Ohms
• Matching tolerance: ±5%
• Equivalent power rating: 5W
• Same composition: Wirewound
• Identical package configuration: Axial
• Matching temperature coefficient: ±30ppm/°C
• Identical physical dimensions: 0.264" Dia x 0.969" L (6.70mm x 24.60mm)
• Equivalent features: Flame Retardant Coating, Safety construction
• Same number of terminations: 2

The primary distinction between these parts is packaging format (standard vs. bulk) and RoHS compliance status.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the 95J620 and 95J620E are active products from Ohmite's Series 90 wirewound resistor line. Selection between these parts should be based on regulatory and compliance requirements:

The 95J620E is RoHS compliant with MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited), making it suitable for applications subject to RoHS directives and environments with no moisture sensitivity constraints.

The 95J620 is RoHS non-compliant and should be selected only when legacy designs or specific application requirements mandate non-compliant components.

Both parts are electrically and mechanically interchangeable within the same circuit design, provided compliance requirements are satisfied.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 95J620E directly replace the 95J620 in existing designs?

A: Yes, from an electrical and mechanical standpoint. The 95J620E maintains identical resistance, tolerance, power rating, temperature coefficient, and physical dimensions. Compliance verification is required based on your application's regulatory requirements.

Q: What is the difference between these two part numbers?

A: The primary differences are packaging format and RoHS compliance status. The 95J620E is supplied in bulk packaging and is RoHS compliant, while the 95J620 uses standard packaging and is RoHS non-compliant. All electrical and mechanical specifications are identical.

Q: Are there any thermal or performance differences between these parts?

A: No. Both parts share identical temperature coefficient (±30ppm/°C), power rating (5W), and thermal characteristics. Performance in thermal applications is equivalent.

Q: Which part should I specify for new designs?

A: Selection depends on your design's compliance requirements. For RoHS-regulated applications, specify the 95J620E. For legacy or non-regulated applications, either part is suitable based on availability and packaging needs.

Q: Do these parts have different lead times or availability?

A: Current inventory shows 933 units of 95J620 and 749 units of 95J620E in stock. Availability may vary; consult your supplier for current lead time information.
