Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the B8J9K0 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Resistance value: 9 kOhms
• Tolerance: ±5%
• Power rating: 8W
• Composition: Wirewound
• Package type: Axial
• Physical dimensions: 0.313" Dia x 1.000" L (7.94mm x 25.40mm)
• Temperature coefficient: ±260ppm/°C
• Features: Flame Retardant Coating, Safety

The B8J9K0E is identified as a direct substitute, differing only in packaging configuration (Bulk versus standard packaging) and compliance certifications. All electrical and mechanical parameters remain identical.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both B8J9K0 and B8J9K0E are active production components from Ohmite's Brown Devil® 200 series with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Selection between these parts should be based on the following factors:

B8J9K0 is suitable for applications where standard packaging is required and RoHS non-compliance is acceptable for the end application.

B8J9K0E is the appropriate choice for applications requiring ROHS3 compliance and bulk packaging configurations. This variant maintains all electrical performance characteristics while meeting enhanced environmental compliance standards.

Both parts are suitable for direct substitution in circuits requiring 9 kOhms ±5% 8W axial wirewound resistors with flame retardant coating and safety features.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can B8J9K0E be used as a direct replacement for B8J9K0?

A: Yes. Both parts are electrically and mechanically identical. The B8J9K0E differs only in packaging format (Bulk) and RoHS compliance status (ROHS3 Compliant versus non-compliant). Selection depends on application compliance requirements and packaging needs.

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

A: The primary differences are packaging configuration and RoHS certification status. The B8J9K0E is supplied in bulk packaging and meets ROHS3 compliance, while the B8J9K0 uses standard packaging and is RoHS non-compliant.

Q: Are the physical dimensions identical between B8J9K0 and B8J9K0E?

A: Yes. Both parts have identical dimensions of 0.313" Dia x 1.000" L (7.94mm x 25.40mm) and are axial package type, ensuring mechanical compatibility in PCB layouts.

Q: Which part should be selected for RoHS-compliant applications?

A: The B8J9K0E is ROHS3 compliant and is the appropriate selection for applications requiring RoHS compliance. The B8J9K0 is RoHS non-compliant.

Q: Do both parts have the same electrical specifications?

A: Yes. Both B8J9K0 and B8J9K0E have identical electrical specifications: 9 kOhms ±5% tolerance, 8W power rating, ±260ppm/°C temperature coefficient, and wirewound composition with flame retardant coating and safety features.
