Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the 95J68R are qualified based on matching the following critical parameters: resistance value (68 Ohms), tolerance (±5%), power rating (5W), composition (wirewound), package type (axial), physical dimensions (0.264" Dia x 0.969" L), temperature coefficient (±30ppm/°C), and features (flame retardant coating, safety). All identified substitutes maintain identical electrical performance and mechanical compatibility. Differences between the main part and substitutes are limited to packaging format (bulk versus standard) and regulatory compliance certifications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 95J68R, 95J68RE, and 95J68RE-B are electrically and mechanically equivalent components within the Ohmite 90 series. Selection between these parts is determined by packaging requirements and regulatory compliance needs.

For applications requiring ROHS3 compliance, the 95J68RE is the appropriate selection. The 95J68RE-B provides equivalent electrical performance with bulk packaging and is suitable for high-volume applications where packaging format is not a constraint.

The 95J68R remains the standard selection for applications without specific RoHS compliance mandates and where standard packaging is preferred. All three parts maintain identical electrical characteristics, dimensional specifications, and thermal performance across the operating range.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are the 95J68R, 95J68RE, and 95J68RE-B electrically interchangeable?

A: Yes. All three parts share identical resistance value (68 Ohms), tolerance (±5%), power rating (5W), temperature coefficient (±30ppm/°C), and composition (wirewound). They are direct electrical equivalents.

Q: What is the difference between these substitute parts?

A: The primary differences are packaging format (standard versus bulk) and regulatory compliance certifications. The 95J68RE carries ROHS3 compliance, while the 95J68R is RoHS non-compliant. The 95J68RE-B is supplied in bulk packaging.

Q: Can these parts be used interchangeably in PCB designs?

A: Yes. All parts share identical axial package dimensions (0.264" Dia x 0.969" L) and two-terminal configuration, ensuring mechanical and electrical compatibility in circuit board layouts.

Q: Which part should be selected for new designs?

A: Selection depends on regulatory requirements. For designs requiring ROHS3 compliance, specify the 95J68RE. For applications without specific compliance mandates, any of the three parts may be used based on packaging and inventory availability.

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

A: No. All three parts maintain identical temperature coefficient (±30ppm/°C) and power dissipation characteristics (5W rating).
