Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the CMF071K5000GKBF is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Resistance Value: Must be 1.5 kOhms (exact match required)
• Power Rating: Must be 0.5W (1/2W) minimum
• Package Type: Must be Axial configuration
• Physical Dimensions: Must be 0.090" Dia x 0.240" L (2.29mm x 6.10mm)
• Operating Temperature Range: Must support -55°C ~ 175°C
• Composition: Must be Metal Film
• Features: Must include Flame Retardant Coating and Moisture Resistant properties

The identified substitute parts CMF551K5000DHR6 and CMF551K5000FKBF meet all mandatory compatibility criteria. Variations in tolerance specification (±0.5% and ±1% respectively) and packaging format (Cut Tape versus Bulk) represent the primary differences and do not affect functional interchangeability in applications where the CMF071K5000GKBF is specified.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three parts maintain Active product status and identical RoHS non-compliance classification. Selection between CMF071K5000GKBF and its substitutes should be based on tolerance and packaging requirements specific to the application:

• CMF071K5000GKBF (±2% tolerance, Bulk packaging): Suitable for general-purpose applications where standard tolerance is acceptable and bulk quantities are preferred.

• CMF551K5000DHR6 (±0.5% tolerance, Cut Tape packaging): Appropriate for precision applications requiring tighter tolerance control and tape-and-reel format for automated assembly processes.

• CMF551K5000FKBF (±1% tolerance, Bulk packaging): Suitable for applications requiring improved tolerance performance over the original specification while maintaining bulk packaging format.

All substitute parts are manufactured by Vishay Dale and share identical electrical performance characteristics within their respective tolerance bands, physical dimensions, and environmental operating specifications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can CMF551K5000DHR6 be used as a direct replacement for CMF071K5000GKBF?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical resistance value (1.5 kOhms), power rating (0.5W), physical dimensions (0.090" Dia x 0.240" L), operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 175°C), and protective features. The primary difference is tighter tolerance (±0.5% versus ±2%) and Cut Tape packaging format instead of Bulk.

Q: What is the difference between the tolerance specifications?

A: CMF071K5000GKBF carries ±2% tolerance, CMF551K5000FKBF carries ±1% tolerance, and CMF551K5000DHR6 carries ±0.5% tolerance. Tighter tolerance specifications provide greater resistance value accuracy. Selection depends on circuit requirements for precision.

Q: Are there packaging compatibility considerations?

A: CMF071K5000GKBF and CMF551K5000FKBF are supplied in Bulk packaging, while CMF551K5000DHR6 is supplied in Cut Tape (CT) format. Bulk packaging is suitable for manual assembly or small-quantity applications. Cut Tape format is optimized for automated pick-and-place assembly processes.

Q: Do all substitute parts meet the same environmental specifications?

A: Yes. All three parts operate across the identical temperature range (-55°C ~ 175°C) and include Flame Retardant Coating and Moisture Resistant features. All maintain the same RoHS non-compliance status.

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

A: Yes, provided the circuit design accommodates the tolerance variation. Applications sensitive to resistance value accuracy should specify the tighter tolerance options (CMF551K5000DHR6 or CMF551K5000FKBF) during design phase.
