Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the PCF14JT16R0 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Resistance value: 16 Ohms (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 / -400ppm/°C (exact match required)
• Operating temperature range: -55°C to 155°C (exact match required)
• Physical dimensions: 0.091" Dia × 0.236" L (exact match required)
• Compliance certifications: RoHS3 Compliant, REACH Unaffected (exact match required)

The identified substitute part CF14JT16R0 meets all electrical and mechanical requirements. The primary distinction is packaging format: the main part is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) configuration, while the substitute is available in Cut Tape (CT) format. Both configurations contain identical component specifications and are suitable for automated assembly processes.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both PCF14JT16R0 and CF14JT16R0 are Active products from Stackpole Electronics Inc with full RoHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status. Selection between these parts should be based on packaging requirements and assembly process compatibility:

• PCF14JT16R0 in Tape & Reel format is suitable for high-volume automated pick-and-place assembly operations requiring continuous reel feeding.
• CF14JT16R0 in Cut Tape format is suitable for lower-volume applications, manual assembly, or processes requiring individual component handling.

Both parts satisfy identical electrical performance, thermal characteristics, and regulatory compliance requirements. No functional or performance differences exist between the two options.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can CF14JT16R0 be used as a direct replacement for PCF14JT16R0?

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

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

A: Tape & Reel packaging supplies components on a continuous reel suitable for automated assembly equipment with reel feeders. Cut Tape packaging supplies components on tape segments, typically used for lower-volume production or manual assembly processes. Both formats contain identical components.

Q: Are there any performance differences between these two part numbers?

A: No. Both parts have identical electrical specifications, thermal characteristics, physical dimensions, and compliance certifications. Performance is equivalent across all operating conditions within the specified temperature range of -55°C to 155°C.

Q: What compliance certifications apply to both parts?

A: Both PCF14JT16R0 and CF14JT16R0 are RoHS3 Compliant and REACH Unaffected, meeting current regulatory requirements for electronic component manufacturing and use.

Q: Can these parts be used interchangeably in circuit designs?

A: Yes. From an electrical and thermal perspective, these parts are fully interchangeable. Circuit design, PCB layout, and component selection remain unchanged. Only the procurement and assembly process specifications differ based on packaging format.
