PCF14JT180R Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The PCF14JT180R is a 180 Ohms ±5% 0.25W through-hole resistor manufactured by Stackpole Electronics Inc in the CF series. This carbon film resistor features flame retardant coating and safety characteristics, designed for axial or radial bend configurations in Tape & Reel packaging. The part maintains Active product status and is ROHS3 compliant. Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical specifications and mechanical compatibility allow direct replacement in circuit applications.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the PCF14JT180R are qualified based on the following electrical and mechanical parameters:

Electrical equivalence requires identical resistance value (180 Ohms), tolerance (±5%), power rating (0.25W), composition (carbon film), temperature coefficient (0 / -400ppm/°C), and operating temperature range (-55°C to 155°C).

Mechanical compatibility is determined by package type (axial configuration), termination count (2 terminations), and compliance certifications (ROHS3, REACH Unaffected).

The primary distinction between the main part and substitutes is packaging format: the PCF14JT180R is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) with axial or radial bend capability, while direct substitutes are available in Cut Tape (CT) packaging with fixed axial configuration.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

CF14JT180R serves as a direct electrical and mechanical equivalent to PCF14JT180R. Both parts share identical electrical specifications and physical dimensions. The distinction is packaging format: CF14JT180R is supplied in Cut Tape format rather than Tape & Reel. Selection between these parts depends on procurement and assembly requirements.

CFM14JT180R is electrically equivalent but features a smaller physical form factor (0.067" Dia x 0.130" L versus 0.091" Dia x 0.236" L). This part is suitable for applications where space constraints permit the reduced size. All three parts maintain Active product status and identical compliance certifications (ROHS3, REACH Unaffected).

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can CF14JT180R replace PCF14JT180R in all applications?

A: CF14JT180R is electrically and mechanically equivalent to PCF14JT180R. The primary difference is packaging format (Cut Tape versus Tape & Reel). Substitution is valid provided assembly equipment accommodates the packaging change.

Q: What is the key difference between CF14JT180R and CFM14JT180R?

A: Both parts are electrically identical with matching resistance, tolerance, power rating, and temperature characteristics. CFM14JT180R has a smaller physical size (0.067" Dia x 0.130" L) compared to CF14JT180R (0.091" Dia x 0.236" L). Selection depends on available board space and mechanical fit requirements.

Q: Are all three parts ROHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. PCF14JT180R, CF14JT180R, and CFM14JT180R are all ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected.

Q: Does package type affect electrical performance?

A: No. Tape & Reel (TR) and Cut Tape (CT) packaging formats do not alter electrical characteristics. The choice between packaging types is determined by assembly process requirements and inventory management.

Q: Can CFM14JT180R be used in place of PCF14JT180R if space permits?

A: Yes, provided the smaller physical dimensions are compatible with the circuit board layout and component placement requirements. All electrical specifications remain identical.
