Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the ERJ-S02J3R6X is based on strict equivalence of the following electrical and mechanical parameters:

• Resistance Value: 3.6 Ohms (exact match required)
• Tolerance: ±5% (exact match required)
• Power Rating: 0.1W / 1/10W (exact match required)
• Package Format: 0402 (1005 Metric) (exact match required)
• Composition: Thick Film (exact match required)
• Temperature Coefficient: -100 / +600 ppm/°C (exact match required)
• Operating Temperature Range: -55°C ~ 155°C (exact match required)
• Automotive Qualification: AEC-Q200 (exact match required)
• Anti-Sulfur Feature: Present (exact match required)

The ERJ-U02J3R6X qualifies as a direct substitute based on identical electrical specifications and mechanical dimensions. The primary difference between the main part and substitute is the packaging format and series designation, which does not affect functional performance in the application circuit.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the ERJ-S02J3R6X and ERJ-U02J3R6X are active production parts manufactured by Panasonic Electronic Components with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Selection between these parts is determined by packaging and supply requirements:

ERJ-S02J3R6X is appropriate for applications where standard packaging is specified or when inventory of this specific series designation is required.

ERJ-U02J3R6X is appropriate for high-volume production requiring tape and reel packaging format, offering significantly higher inventory availability (19,008 pieces in stock versus 874 pieces for the main part). Both parts maintain full compliance with ROHS3, REACH, and automotive AEC-Q200 standards.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can ERJ-U02J3R6X be used as a direct replacement for ERJ-S02J3R6X?

A: Yes. Both parts are electrically and mechanically identical with matching resistance values (3.6 Ohms), tolerance (±5%), power rating (0.1W), package format (0402), composition (thick film), temperature characteristics, and automotive qualifications. The primary difference is the packaging format and series designation.

Q: What is the difference between ERJ-S02 and ERJ-U02 series?

A: The ERJ-S02 and ERJ-U02 series are both Panasonic thick film chip resistor lines with identical electrical specifications and package dimensions. The series designation reflects different packaging and distribution formats rather than functional differences.

Q: Are the physical dimensions identical between these parts?

A: Yes. Both parts have identical dimensions of 0.039" L x 0.020" W (1.00mm x 0.50mm) with a maximum seated height of 0.016" (0.40mm). They are fully compatible for PCB assembly without layout modifications.

Q: Do both parts meet automotive standards?

A: Yes. Both ERJ-S02J3R6X and ERJ-U02J3R6X carry AEC-Q200 automotive qualification and feature anti-sulfur properties, making them suitable for automotive and industrial applications requiring high reliability.

Q: What is the moisture sensitivity level for these parts?

A: Both parts have a Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) of 1, indicating unlimited shelf life without special moisture control requirements during storage and handling.

Q: Are these parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both parts are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting environmental and regulatory requirements for electronic component manufacturing and use.
