Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the D100K10R are qualified based on strict electrical and mechanical parameter matching:

Critical Matching Parameters:

• Resistance value: 10 Ohms
• Power rating: 100 W
• Tolerance: ±10%
• Adjustment type: Slide
• Mounting configuration: Chassis Mount
• Termination style: Solder Lug
• Package type: Radial, 3 Lead, Tubular

Both identified substitutes meet these core requirements. Dimensional variations within manufacturing tolerances (diameter and length) are acceptable for chassis mount applications where mechanical fit accommodates minor dimensional differences.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

D100K10RE (Ohmite): This part is the direct equivalent to D100K10R from the same manufacturer and series. It provides identical electrical and mechanical specifications with the advantage of ROHS3 compliance, addressing regulatory requirements where the original part does not. This substitute is preferred for new designs or applications requiring RoHS certification.

AVT10006E10R00KE (Vishay Huntington Electric Inc.): This cross-manufacturer substitute meets all critical electrical parameters and mounting requirements. Dimensional variations are minimal (0.004" OD difference, 0.004" length difference) and fall within acceptable tolerances for chassis mount applications. This part carries ROHS3 compliance and provides supply diversity from an alternative qualified manufacturer.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can D100K10RE be used as a direct replacement for D100K10R? A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical specifications (10 Ohms, 100 W, ±10% tolerance), adjustment type (Slide), mounting configuration (Chassis Mount), termination (Solder Lug), and package type (Radial, 3 Lead, Tubular). The primary difference is RoHS compliance status.

Q: Are there mechanical compatibility concerns with the Vishay AVT10006E10R00KE substitute? A: No. The dimensional differences are minimal: 0.004" OD and 0.004" length variation. These differences are within manufacturing tolerances and do not affect chassis mount fit or electrical performance in standard applications.

Q: Which substitute should be selected for new product designs? A: Selection depends on regulatory requirements. For designs requiring RoHS compliance, either D100K10RE or AVT10006E10R00KE are suitable. For supply chain flexibility, AVT10006E10R00KE provides cross-manufacturer sourcing from Vishay.

Q: Do all three parts have the same solder lug termination? A: Yes. All three parts use solder lug termination, ensuring compatibility with existing PCB layouts and assembly processes.

Q: What is the significance of the series designation (Dividohm®210 vs. AVT)? A: Series designation indicates the product line. D100K10R and D100K10RE belong to Ohmite's Dividohm®210 series, while AVT10006E10R00KE belongs to Vishay's AVT series. Both series are designed for adjustable power resistor applications and meet the specified electrical and mechanical requirements.
