Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the PCF14JT3R00 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Resistance value: 3 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: ±400ppm/°C (exact match required)
• Operating temperature range: -55°C to 155°C (exact match required)
• Compliance certifications: ROHS3 Compliant, REACH Unaffected (exact match required)

The CFM14JT3R00 qualifies as a substitute part because it maintains identical electrical specifications, composition, thermal characteristics, and regulatory compliance. The primary difference is packaging format: the main part uses Tape & Reel (TR) with Panasert supplier packaging, while the substitute uses Cut Tape (CT) with Axial supplier packaging. Both parts are manufactured by Stackpole Electronics Inc and belong to the same carbon film resistor family.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the PCF14JT3R00 and CFM14JT3R00 maintain Active product status and identical ROHS3 and REACH compliance certifications. Selection between these parts should be based on packaging and supply chain requirements. The PCF14JT3R00 in Tape & Reel format is suitable for high-volume automated assembly processes. The CFM14JT3R00 in Cut Tape format provides flexibility for lower-volume applications or manual assembly operations. Electrical performance and regulatory compliance are equivalent across both options.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can CFM14JT3R00 replace PCF14JT3R00 in my circuit?

A: Yes. Both parts have identical electrical specifications: 3 Ohms ±5% at 0.25W power rating with ±400ppm/°C temperature coefficient and -55°C to 155°C operating range. Compliance certifications are equivalent.

Q: What is the difference between these two part numbers?

A: The primary differences are packaging format and series designation. PCF14JT3R00 uses Tape & Reel (TR) packaging in the CF series, while CFM14JT3R00 uses Cut Tape (CT) packaging in the CFM series. Electrical and thermal performance are identical.

Q: Are there any dimensional differences?

A: Yes. PCF14JT3R00 measures 0.091" diameter × 0.236" length (2.30mm × 6.00mm). CFM14JT3R00 measures 0.067" diameter × 0.130" length (1.70mm × 3.30mm). Both are through-hole axial resistors with 2 terminations.

Q: Which part should I use for new designs?

A: Selection depends on assembly method and supply chain strategy. Tape & Reel (PCF14JT3R00) is standard for automated pick-and-place assembly. Cut Tape (CFM14JT3R00) is suitable for manual assembly or lower-volume production. Both maintain identical electrical performance and compliance.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both PCF14JT3R00 and CFM14JT3R00 are ROHS3 Compliant and REACH Unaffected.
