PCF14JT56K0 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The PCF14JT56K0 is a 56 kOhms ±5% 0.25W carbon film through-hole resistor manufactured by Stackpole Electronics Inc. This component is actively produced and widely used in electronic assemblies requiring precision resistive elements with flame retardant coating and safety features. The part is supplied in Tape & Reel packaging with axial and radial bend configurations. Equivalent and substitute parts are identified when component availability is limited, supply chain disruptions occur, or design flexibility permits alternative packaging formats while maintaining electrical and mechanical compatibility.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the PCF14JT56K0 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

  • Resistance value: 56 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
  • Flame retardant coating and safety features
  • RoHS3 compliance
  • REACH unaffected status
  • Two terminations (axial configuration)

Substitute parts must maintain identical electrical specifications and regulatory compliance. Packaging format differences (Tape & Reel versus Cut Tape) and physical dimensions do not affect electrical substitutability when the core parameters remain constant.
