PCF14JT3M00 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The PCF14JT3M00 is a 3 MOhms ±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 axial and radial bend configuration options. Substitute parts are identified when packaging format changes or when sourcing from alternative inventory channels becomes necessary while maintaining identical electrical and mechanical specifications.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the PCF14JT3M00 is determined by strict equivalence across the following parameters: resistance value (3 MOhms), tolerance (±5%), power rating (0.25W), composition (carbon film), temperature coefficient (0 / -1500ppm/°C), operating temperature range (-55°C to 155°C), and physical dimensions (0.091" Dia x 0.236" L). The primary difference between the main part and its substitute is the packaging format: the main part is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) configuration, while the substitute part CF14JT3M00 is supplied in Cut Tape (CT) configuration. Both parts maintain identical electrical performance, compliance certifications (ROHS3, REACH Unaffected), and physical form factor. The package / case designation remains Axial for the substitute, confirming mechanical compatibility in standard through-hole applications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both PCF14JT3M00 and CF14JT3M00 are Active status components from Stackpole Electronics Inc and maintain full compliance with ROHS3 and REACH requirements. Selection between these parts should be based on packaging requirements and inventory availability. The main part (PCF14JT3M00) in Tape & Reel format is suitable for automated assembly processes requiring continuous reel feeding. The substitute part (CF14JT3M00) in Cut Tape format is appropriate for manual assembly, small-batch production, or applications where individual component handling is preferred. Both parts deliver identical electrical performance and thermal characteristics across the specified operating range of -55°C to 155°C.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can CF14JT3M00 be used as a direct replacement for PCF14JT3M00 in production? A: Yes. Both parts are electrically and mechanically identical. The difference is packaging format only: Tape & Reel versus Cut Tape. Selection depends on assembly method and process requirements.

Q: Are there any performance differences between the two parts? A: No. Both parts share identical resistance (3 MOhms), tolerance (±5%), power rating (0.25W), composition (carbon film), temperature coefficient (0 / -1500ppm/°C), and operating temperature range (-55°C to 155°C).

Q: What is the significance of the packaging format difference? A: Tape & Reel (TR) packaging is optimized for high-speed automated pick-and-place assembly. Cut Tape (CT) packaging is suited for manual assembly, prototyping, or lower-volume production runs where components are handled individually.

Q: Do both parts meet the same compliance standards? A: Yes. Both PCF14JT3M00 and CF14JT3M00 are ROHS3 Compliant and REACH Unaffected, ensuring regulatory compliance for equivalent applications.

Q: Are the physical dimensions identical? A: Yes. Both parts maintain the same axial form factor with dimensions of 0.091" Dia x 0.236" L (2.30mm x 6.00mm), ensuring mechanical compatibility in standard through-hole PCB layouts.
