Engineering Selection Recommendations

CAT16-130J4LF (Bourns Inc.) is the primary substitute for the obsolete CAT16-130J4GLF. Both components are manufactured by Bourns Inc. within the same CAT16 series and maintain identical electrical specifications and package configuration. The CAT16-130J4LF carries active product status, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain continuity. This part is ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current regulatory requirements.

EXB-V8V130JV (Panasonic Electronic Components) serves as a cross-manufacturer equivalent. This component meets all critical electrical parameters and maintains the same 1206 surface mount package footprint. The EXB-V8V130JV is also active in production with ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status. Physical dimensions show minor variations (height 0.028" vs. 0.024" maximum seated height), which remain within acceptable PCB assembly tolerances for standard reflow processes.

Both substitute parts are suitable for direct replacement in applications requiring the CAT16-130J4GLF specifications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can CAT16-130J4LF directly replace CAT16-130J4GLF on existing PCBs?

A: Yes. The CAT16-130J4LF maintains identical electrical specifications, pin configuration, and 1206 package footprint. The primary difference is product status (active vs. obsolete) and packaging format. No PCB redesign is required.

Q: What is the difference between CAT16-130J4GLF and CAT16-130J4LF?

A: Both parts are Bourns Inc. CAT16 series 13 Ohm 4-resistor arrays with identical electrical characteristics. The CAT16-130J4GLF is obsolete, while CAT16-130J4LF is active production. The suffix variation indicates packaging or manufacturing process differences that do not affect electrical performance.

Q: Is EXB-V8V130JV compatible with CAT16-130J4GLF?

A: Yes. The EXB-V8V130JV is a Panasonic equivalent meeting all electrical specifications: 13 Ohm resistance, ±5% tolerance, 4-resistor isolated configuration, 62.5mW power per element, ±200ppm/°C temperature coefficient, and -55°C to 125°C operating range. The 1206 package footprint is identical. Minor physical dimension variations do not affect PCB assembly compatibility.

Q: Are there any compliance differences between the substitute parts?

A: No. All three parts (CAT16-130J4GLF, CAT16-130J4LF, and EXB-V8V130JV) are ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating. Regulatory status is equivalent across all options.

Q: Which substitute should be selected for new designs?

A: CAT16-130J4LF or EXB-V8V130JV are both suitable for new designs. Selection may be based on supplier availability, lead time, or established vendor relationships. Both parts carry active product status and meet all current regulatory requirements.

Q: What is the significance of the 1206 package designation?

A: 1206 refers to the surface mount package size (0.126" L x 0.061" W / 3.20mm x 1.55mm). All substitute parts use this identical package, ensuring footprint compatibility without PCB modification.
