Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the TWM5J200 is determined by strict equivalence across all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. The substitute part must match:

• Resistance value: 200 Ohms
• Tolerance: ±5%
• Power rating: 5W
• Composition: Metal Oxide Film
• Package configuration: Radial with 2 terminations
• Physical dimensions: 0.492" L x 0.354" W, 1.024" max seated height
• Temperature coefficient: ±350ppm/°C
• Operating temperature range: -55°C to 275°C

The TWM5J200E meets all these criteria and is classified as an active product, providing continuity for applications currently using the obsolete TWM5J200.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The TWM5J200E is the direct active equivalent for the obsolete TWM5J200. Both components are manufactured by Ohmite within the TWM series and maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications. The primary distinction is product status and regulatory compliance: the TWM5J200E is actively produced and ROHS3 compliant, whereas the TWM5J200 is obsolete and RoHS non-compliant. For new designs or component replenishment, the TWM5J200E is the appropriate selection. Both components share identical REACH and ECCN classifications, ensuring regulatory consistency in applications requiring these certifications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can TWM5J200E be used as a direct replacement for TWM5J200?

A: Yes. The TWM5J200E is electrically and mechanically identical to the TWM5J200 across all specified parameters, including resistance, tolerance, power rating, composition, package type, temperature coefficient, and operating temperature range. Physical dimensions and termination configuration are identical.

Q: What is the primary reason to transition from TWM5J200 to TWM5J200E?

A: The TWM5J200 is classified as obsolete, making long-term procurement unreliable. The TWM5J200E is an active product with ongoing manufacturing support. Additionally, the TWM5J200E is ROHS3 compliant, whereas the TWM5J200 is RoHS non-compliant, which may be required for applications subject to RoHS regulations.

Q: Are there any differences in packaging between these parts?

A: The TWM5J200 is supplied in standard packaging, while the TWM5J200E is supplied in bulk packaging. Both maintain identical component specifications and radial lead configuration. Packaging format does not affect electrical or mechanical performance.

Q: Do both parts meet the same regulatory standards?

A: Both components share identical REACH and ECCN classifications (REACH Unaffected, EAR99). The TWM5J200E provides enhanced regulatory compliance through ROHS3 certification, which the TWM5J200 does not possess.

Q: Are the physical dimensions identical?

A: Yes. Both components have identical dimensions of 0.492" L x 0.354" W (12.50mm x 9.00mm) with a maximum seated height of 1.024" (26.00mm), ensuring direct mechanical compatibility in PCB layouts and through-hole applications.
