WHA10RFE Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The WHA10RFE is a 10 Ohm ±1% 0.5W through-hole resistor manufactured by Ohmite in axial wirewound composition. This component is classified as Active product status and is ROHS3 compliant. Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical specifications and mechanical compatibility are maintained across the allowed parameter set for axial wirewound resistors in this resistance and power rating category.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the WHA10RFE is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Resistance value: 10 Ohms
• Tolerance: ±1%
• Power rating: 0.5W (1/2W)
• Composition: Wirewound
• Package: Axial
• Temperature coefficient: ±50ppm/°C
• Operating temperature range: -55°C ~ 150°C
• Physical dimensions: 0.100" Dia x 0.200" L (2.54mm x 5.08mm)
• Compliance: ROHS3 Compliant

The WHA10RFET meets all substitution criteria as a direct equivalent part from the same manufacturer and series.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both WHA10RFE and WHA10RFET are Active status components manufactured by Ohmite within the WH series. Both parts maintain full ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status. The WHA10RFET is supplied in Cut Tape (CT) packaging, while the WHA10RFE is supplied in standard packaging. Selection between these parts depends on procurement requirements and packaging format compatibility with assembly processes. Both parts are electrically and mechanically equivalent for circuit applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can WHA10RFET replace WHA10RFE in existing designs? A: Yes. Both parts are electrically and mechanically identical across all specified parameters including resistance, tolerance, power rating, temperature coefficient, and operating temperature range. The difference is packaging format only.

Q: What is the difference between WHA10RFE and WHA10RFET? A: The primary difference is packaging. WHA10RFE uses standard packaging while WHA10RFET is supplied in Cut Tape (CT) format. All electrical and mechanical specifications are identical.

Q: Are both parts suitable for -55°C to 150°C operating environments? A: Yes. Both WHA10RFE and WHA10RFET are rated for -55°C ~ 150°C operating temperature range with ±50ppm/°C temperature coefficient.

Q: Do both parts meet RoHS compliance requirements? A: Yes. Both WHA10RFE and WHA10RFET are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected.

Q: Can these parts be used interchangeably in PCB assembly? A: Yes, provided the assembly process is compatible with the packaging format. WHA10RFET in Cut Tape format is suitable for automated pick-and-place assembly, while WHA10RFE standard packaging may require different handling.
