Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three parts—PCF14JT15K0, CF14JT15K0, and CFM14JT15K0—are Active status components manufactured by Stackpole Electronics Inc and maintain full ROHS3 and REACH compliance. Selection between these parts depends on package and dimensional requirements for your application.

The PCF14JT15K0 supports both axial and radial bend package configurations. The CF14JT15K0 is configured as axial only with identical dimensions to the PCF14JT15K0 axial variant. The CFM14JT15K0 is a compact axial variant with reduced physical dimensions (0.067" Dia x 0.130" L versus 0.091" Dia x 0.236" L), suitable for space-constrained designs where the smaller footprint is compatible with board layout requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can CF14JT15K0 replace PCF14JT15K0 in all applications?

A: CF14JT15K0 is electrically and functionally equivalent to the PCF14JT15K0 when the axial package configuration is acceptable for your circuit board layout. Both parts share identical electrical specifications, temperature characteristics, and compliance certifications. The primary difference is that PCF14JT15K0 supports both axial and radial bend options, while CF14JT15K0 is axial only.

Q: What are the dimensional differences between CFM14JT15K0 and the other substitutes?

A: CFM14JT15K0 has a smaller physical footprint (0.067" Dia x 0.130" L) compared to PCF14JT15K0 and CF14JT15K0 (0.091" Dia x 0.236" L). This compact size makes CFM14JT15K0 suitable for applications with space constraints, provided the smaller dimensions are compatible with your PCB design and component placement requirements.

Q: Are all three parts suitable for the same operating temperature range?

A: Yes. All three parts operate across the identical temperature range of -55°C to 155°C with the same temperature coefficient of 0 / -500ppm/°C, ensuring consistent performance across thermal cycling and environmental conditions.

Q: Do package differences affect electrical performance?

A: No. Package configuration (axial versus radial bend, or compact axial) does not affect the electrical performance of the resistor. All parts deliver identical resistance value, tolerance, power dissipation capability, and frequency response characteristics. Package selection is determined by mechanical fit and board layout requirements only.

Q: Are all substitutes ROHS3 and REACH compliant?

A: Yes. PCF14JT15K0, CF14JT15K0, and CFM14JT15K0 are all ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current regulatory requirements for electronic component manufacturing and use.
