Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RR01J16RTB is determined by strict alignment of the following parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Resistance value: 16 Ohms
• Tolerance: ±5%
• Power rating: 1W
• Composition: Metal Film
• Package configuration: Axial through-hole
• Termination count: 2
• Regulatory compliance: RoHS3 Compliant, REACH Unaffected

Acceptable Variation Parameters:

• Operating temperature range: Substitute may have narrower range than -55°C ~ 235°C
• Temperature coefficient: Substitute may differ within typical metal film specifications
• Physical dimensions: Minor variations acceptable within axial package standards
• Additional certifications: Substitute may include automotive or enhanced safety ratings

The PR01000101609JR500 qualifies as a direct substitute based on matching all mandatory parameters while providing automotive AEC-Q200 certification and fusible safety features as additional capabilities.

• Applications with operating temperature ceiling at 155°C or below

Both parts maintain full RoHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status. Selection between these parts depends on application-specific temperature requirements and automotive certification necessity. The substitute part introduces automotive-grade reliability through AEC-Q200 qualification and fusible construction, while the main part provides extended high-temperature operation capability.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can PR01000101609JR500 replace RR01J16RTB in all applications?

A: PR01000101609JR500 is electrically and mechanically compatible for applications operating at temperatures up to 155°C. Applications requiring operation above 155°C must use RR01J16RTB, which is rated to 235°C.

Q: What is the physical size difference between these parts?

A: RR01J16RTB measures 0.102" diameter × 0.268" length (2.60mm × 6.80mm). PR01000101609JR500 measures 0.098" diameter × 0.256" length (2.50mm × 6.50mm). Both are axial package format and physically compatible in standard PCB layouts.

Q: Are both parts RoHS3 compliant?

A: Yes, both RR01J16RTB and PR01000101609JR500 are RoHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current regulatory requirements for electronic components.

Q: What does AEC-Q200 certification on the substitute part indicate?

A: AEC-Q200 is an automotive electronics council qualification standard. PR01000101609JR500 carries this certification, indicating suitability for automotive applications with enhanced reliability and quality assurance requirements.

Q: Do both parts have identical electrical specifications?

A: Both parts share identical resistance (16 Ohms), tolerance (±5%), and power rating (1W). Temperature coefficient differs slightly: RR01J16RTB at ±300ppm/°C and PR01000101609JR500 at ±250ppm/°C, with the substitute offering superior stability.

Q: What is the fusible feature on the substitute part?

A: The fusible feature on PR01000101609JR500 provides additional safety protection through controlled failure characteristics under fault conditions, typical of automotive-grade resistor construction.

Q: Can these parts be used interchangeably in existing designs?

A: Interchangeability depends on application temperature requirements. For designs operating within -55°C to 155°C, PR01000101609JR500 is a direct substitute. For designs requiring temperatures above 155°C, RR01J16RTB is required.
