PCF14JT13K0 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The PCF14JT13K0 is a 13 kOhms ±5% 0.25W carbon film through-hole resistor manufactured by Stackpole Electronics Inc. This component is classified as Active product status and is designed for general-purpose resistive applications requiring flame retardant coating and safety features. The part is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) packaging with Panasert supplier device package designation. Identifying equivalent and substitute parts is necessary when Tape & Reel packaging is unavailable or when alternative packaging formats better suit assembly requirements while maintaining identical electrical and mechanical specifications.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the PCF14JT13K0 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Resistance value: 13 kOhms (exact match required)
• Tolerance: ±5% (exact match required)
• Power rating: 0.25W / 1/4W (exact match required)
• Composition: Carbon Film (exact match required)
• Temperature coefficient: 0 / -500ppm/°C (exact match required)
• Operating temperature range: -55°C ~ 155°C (exact match required)
• Physical dimensions: 0.091" Dia x 0.236" L (exact match required)
• Compliance certifications: ROHS3 Compliant, REACH Unaffected (exact match required)

The primary difference between the main part and substitute part is the packaging format: Tape & Reel (TR) versus Cut Tape (CT). Both formats contain identical component specifications and are sourced from the same manufacturer series (CF). This substitution is valid for applications where packaging format flexibility is acceptable and electrical performance requirements remain unchanged.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both PCF14JT13K0 and CF14JT13K0 are Active status components manufactured by Stackpole Electronics Inc and meet identical electrical, mechanical, and compliance requirements. Selection between these parts should be based on packaging format availability and assembly process requirements. The Tape & Reel format (PCF14JT13K0) is suitable for automated pick-and-place assembly operations. The Cut Tape format (CF14JT13K0) is suitable for manual assembly or lower-volume production runs. Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and REACH Unaffected status, ensuring regulatory compatibility across applications. The substitute part CF14JT13K0 offers higher inventory availability (32,062 pcs) compared to the main part (1,057 pcs), making it a practical alternative when supply constraints exist.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can CF14JT13K0 be used as a direct replacement for PCF14JT13K0?

A: Yes. Both parts are electrically and mechanically identical. The only difference is packaging format: Tape & Reel versus Cut Tape. Substitution is valid provided your assembly process can accommodate Cut Tape format.

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

A: Tape & Reel packaging supplies components on continuous carrier tape wound on a reel, optimized for automated assembly equipment. Cut Tape packaging supplies the same components on tape segments, suitable for manual assembly or lower-volume operations. Electrical performance is identical.

Q: Are there any compliance differences between these parts?

A: No. Both parts are ROHS3 Compliant and REACH Unaffected. Regulatory status is identical.

Q: Can these parts be used interchangeably in the same circuit?

A: Yes. Identical resistance value (13 kOhms), tolerance (±5%), power rating (0.25W), temperature coefficient, and operating temperature range ensure functional equivalence in all circuit applications.

Q: What should I consider when selecting between these two parts?

A: Consider your assembly process requirements. If using automated pick-and-place equipment, Tape & Reel format is standard. If performing manual assembly or prototype work, Cut Tape format may be more practical. Verify packaging compatibility with your assembly line before final selection.
