Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the UB5C-560RF1 are qualified based on the following criteria:

Electrical Parameters (Must Match):

  • Resistance value: 560 Ohms
  • Tolerance: ±1%
  • Power rating: 5W
  • Composition: Wirewound
  • Temperature coefficient: ±20ppm/°C

Mechanical Parameters (Must Match):

  • Package type: Axial
  • Number of terminations: 2

Allowed Variations:

  • Operating temperature range: Substitute parts must support at least the minimum operating temperature of -55°C; maximum temperature may exceed 250°C
  • Physical dimensions: Axial package dimensions may vary within standard through-hole specifications
  • Features: Additional features (non-inductive, moisture resistant) do not disqualify substitution
  • RoHS compliance: Both ROHS3 and RoHS compliant parts are acceptable

The three substitute parts (45F560E, RS005560R0FE73, WHE560FET) meet all mandatory electrical and mechanical criteria and are therefore direct equivalents for the UB5C-560RF1.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three substitute parts (45F560E, RS005560R0FE73, WHE560FET) are Active status components with established RoHS compliance. Selection between these equivalents depends on application-specific constraints:

45F560E (Ohmite): Supports extended maximum operating temperature to 275°C. Suitable for high-temperature applications within the 5W, 560 Ohm specification.

RS005560R0FE73 (Vishay Dale): Extends minimum operating temperature to -65°C and includes moisture-resistant construction. ROHS3 compliant. Suitable for wide temperature range and moisture-sensitive environments.

WHE560FET (Ohmite): Features non-inductive construction. Operating temperature maximum is 150°C, which is below the UB5C-560RF1 specification. Use only in applications where maximum operating temperature does not exceed 150°C.

Physical dimensions vary among all parts. PCB layout and mechanical clearance must be verified before substitution.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 45F560E replace UB5C-560RF1 in all applications? A: Yes, provided the application does not require operation above 275°C. The 45F560E meets all electrical and mechanical substitution criteria with extended high-temperature capability.

Q: What is the key difference between RS005560R0FE73 and the other substitutes? A: RS005560R0FE73 extends the minimum operating temperature to -65°C and includes moisture-resistant construction. It is ROHS3 compliant, matching the original part's compliance level.

Q: Is WHE560FET a suitable substitute for all UB5C-560RF1 applications? A: WHE560FET is suitable only for applications where maximum operating temperature does not exceed 150°C. The original UB5C-560RF1 supports operation to 250°C. The WHE560FET features non-inductive construction, which may be beneficial in specific circuit designs.

Q: Do physical dimension differences affect substitution? A: Physical dimensions vary among all parts. PCB layout, component spacing, and mechanical clearance must be verified. All parts maintain axial package configuration and 2-termination design.

Q: Are all substitute parts RoHS compliant? A: Yes. The UB5C-560RF1 is ROHS3 compliant. All substitutes (45F560E, RS005560R0FE73, WHE560FET) are RoHS compliant. RS005560R0FE73 is ROHS3 compliant, matching the original specification level.

Q: What electrical parameters must remain constant for substitution? A: Resistance (560 Ohms), tolerance (±1%), power rating (5W), composition (wirewound), and temperature coefficient (±20ppm/°C) must remain constant. All listed substitutes maintain these parameters.
