HR01161J Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The HR01161J is a 160 Ohm ±5% 1/16W axial through-hole resistor manufactured by KYOCERA AVX using thick film composition. This component is classified as obsolete, making equivalent substitutes necessary for ongoing production and maintenance applications. The part operates across a temperature range of -55°C to 125°C and is not RoHS compliant.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The CFR-12JB-52-160R from YAGEO qualifies as a functional substitute based on the following critical parameters:

  • Identical resistance value: 160 Ohms
  • Matching tolerance: ±5%
  • Identical package configuration: Axial through-hole
  • Matching number of terminations: 2
  • Compatible operating temperature range: -55°C ~ 155°C (exceeds original specification)
  • Higher power rating: 0.167W (1/6W) provides margin above the original 0.063W requirement

The substitute uses carbon film composition instead of thick film. Both compositions are acceptable for general-purpose resistor applications with matching electrical specifications. The CFR-12JB-52-160R is currently in active production status with high inventory availability.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The CFR-12JB-52-160R is the appropriate substitute for HR01161J applications based on the following factors:

The original HR01161J is obsolete with no ongoing manufacturing support. The CFR-12JB-52-160R maintains all critical electrical parameters: identical 160 Ohm resistance, ±5% tolerance, and axial package configuration. The substitute's higher power rating (0.167W versus 0.063W) provides operational margin without introducing incompatibility. The extended operating temperature range (-55°C to 155°C) encompasses the original specification.

The CFR-12JB-52-160R is ROHS3 compliant, addressing regulatory requirements that may apply to new designs or production runs. Both components share identical termination configuration and footprint compatibility for through-hole applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can CFR-12JB-52-160R directly replace HR01161J in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both components are axial through-hole resistors with identical 160 Ohm resistance and ±5% tolerance. The substitute's higher power rating and extended temperature range do not create compatibility issues.

Q: What is the difference between thick film and carbon film composition?

A: Both are standard resistor compositions suitable for general-purpose applications. Carbon film resistors typically exhibit different temperature coefficients and noise characteristics, but both meet the electrical requirements for this 160 Ohm, ±5% specification.

Q: Does the higher power rating of the substitute affect circuit performance?

A: No. A higher power rating indicates the component can safely dissipate more power. If the original circuit design requires only 0.063W dissipation, the 0.167W-rated substitute operates safely with additional thermal margin.

Q: Are there any PCB layout considerations when substituting?

A: Both components use identical axial package configuration. Physical dimensions differ slightly (original: 0.036" square x 0.075" L; substitute: 0.075" diameter x 0.134" L), but both fit standard through-hole axial resistor footprints without modification.

Q: Is the CFR-12JB-52-160R suitable for new product designs?

A: Yes. The CFR-12JB-52-160R is in active production with ROHS3 compliance, making it appropriate for new designs and production applications.
