Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the PCF14JT27K0 is determined by the following criteria:

Electrical Parameters (Must Match Exactly):

• Resistance value: 27 kOhms
• Tolerance: ±5%
• Power rating: 0.25W (1/4W)
• Composition: Carbon Film
• Temperature coefficient: 0 / -500ppm/°C
• Operating temperature range: -55°C to 155°C

Mechanical & Compliance Parameters (Allowed Variations):

• Packaging format: Tape & Reel (TR), Cut Tape (CT)
• Package/Case configuration: Axial, Axial with Radial Bend
• Physical dimensions: Variations within series specifications
• Series designation: CF, CFM (same manufacturer, equivalent performance)

All identified substitutes maintain identical electrical specifications and compliance certifications, with variations limited to packaging and physical form factor.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three parts maintain Active product status and are ROHS3 and REACH compliant, ensuring regulatory alignment for current applications.

PCF14JT27K0 to CF14JT27K0: Direct electrical equivalent with identical physical dimensions (0.091" Dia x 0.236" L). The primary difference is packaging format: Tape & Reel (TR) versus Cut Tape (CT). Selection depends on assembly process requirements and volume considerations.

PCF14JT27K0 to CFM14JT27K0: Electrical equivalent from the CFM series with reduced physical dimensions (0.067" Dia x 0.130" L). This substitute is applicable when space constraints or board layout optimization requires a smaller form factor, provided mechanical clearance and lead length accommodate the reduced size.

Component selection should be based on procurement availability, packaging compatibility with assembly equipment, and physical space requirements within the application circuit.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can CF14JT27K0 replace PCF14JT27K0 in all applications?

A: Yes, electrically. CF14JT27K0 is a direct electrical equivalent with identical resistance, tolerance, power rating, and temperature characteristics. The difference is packaging format (Cut Tape versus Tape & Reel). Compatibility depends on assembly process capability to handle Cut Tape format.

Q: What are the physical differences between PCF14JT27K0 and CFM14JT27K0?

A: PCF14JT27K0 measures 0.091" Dia x 0.236" L (2.30mm x 6.00mm), while CFM14JT27K0 measures 0.067" Dia x 0.130" L (1.70mm x 3.30mm). Both maintain identical electrical specifications. The CFM variant is physically smaller and suitable for space-constrained applications.

Q: Are all three parts ROHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. PCF14JT27K0, CF14JT27K0, and CFM14JT27K0 are all ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current environmental and regulatory requirements.

Q: What determines substitution eligibility for this resistor?

A: Electrical parameters must match exactly: 27 kOhms resistance, ±5% tolerance, 0.25W power rating, carbon film composition, and -55°C to 155°C operating range. Packaging format and physical dimensions may vary based on application requirements.

Q: Can CFM14JT27K0 be used in place of PCF14JT27K0 in existing designs?

A: Electrically, yes. However, the reduced physical dimensions (0.067" Dia x 0.130" L versus 0.091" Dia x 0.236" L) require verification of mechanical clearance, lead length compatibility, and board layout accommodation before implementation.
