Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The CW00525K00JE73 qualifies as a parametric equivalent to the CW00525K00JS73 based on the following criteria:

All electrical parameters are identical: 25 kOhms resistance, ±5% tolerance, 6.5W power rating, ±30ppm/°C temperature coefficient, and -65°C to 350°C operating temperature range. Physical dimensions remain unchanged at 0.312" Dia x 0.875" L. Both parts use wirewound composition with moisture-resistant features and maintain two terminations.

The primary difference is packaging format: CW00525K00JS73 is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) configuration, while CW00525K00JE73 is supplied in Cut Tape (CT) configuration. Both packaging formats are standard industry options for axial resistors and do not affect component performance or board-level compatibility.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both CW00525K00JS73 and CW00525K00JE73 are active production parts from Vishay Dale with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Selection between these parts depends on procurement and assembly requirements:

CW00525K00JS73 in Tape & Reel format is suitable for high-volume automated assembly operations where continuous tape feeding is required. CW00525K00JE73 in Cut Tape format accommodates lower-volume production, manual assembly, or situations where individual component handling is preferred.

The CW00525K00JE73 offers ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, providing advantages for applications subject to environmental regulations. The CW00525K00JS73 maintains RoHS non-compliant and REACH affected designations.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can CW00525K00JE73 be used as a direct replacement for CW00525K00JS73?

A: Yes. Both parts are electrically and mechanically identical with matching resistance, tolerance, power rating, temperature coefficient, and operating temperature range. The difference is packaging format only.

Q: What is the difference between Tape & Reel and Cut Tape packaging?

A: Tape & Reel (TR) supplies components on continuous tape wound on a reel, optimized for automated pick-and-place assembly. Cut Tape (CT) supplies components on tape segments, suitable for manual handling or lower-volume assembly processes. Both formats contain identical components.

Q: Does packaging format affect component performance?

A: No. Packaging format is a supply and handling consideration only. Electrical performance, thermal characteristics, and reliability are identical between TR and CT formats of the same component.

Q: What are the compliance differences between these parts?

A: CW00525K00JE73 is ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected. CW00525K00JS73 is RoHS non-compliant and REACH affected. Select based on regulatory requirements for your application.

Q: Are both parts currently available?

A: Yes. Both parts maintain active production status. CW00525K00JE73 has higher inventory availability at 1892 pieces, while CW00525K00JS73 has 988 pieces in stock.
