Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the WHC560FE are qualified based on strict electrical and mechanical parameter matching:

Direct Manufacturer Substitute (Packaging Variant): WHC560FET maintains identical electrical specifications (560 Ohms ±1%, 2W, ±20ppm/°C, -55°C to 150°C operating range) and physical dimensions. The substitution is valid based on packaging format difference (Cut Tape versus standard packaging), with no impact on functional performance.

Parametric Equivalent (Series Variant): WNC560FE provides equivalent electrical performance (560 Ohms ±1%, 2W, ±20ppm/°C, -55°C to 150°C operating range) and identical physical dimensions. The substitution is valid based on series designation change (WN versus WH) and non-inductive construction feature, while maintaining all critical electrical and mechanical parameters.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three parts maintain Active product status with full RoHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected designation. Selection between WHC560FE, WHC560FET, and WNC560FE is determined by packaging and supply requirements rather than electrical performance differences.

WHC560FE and WHC560FET are interchangeable from an electrical standpoint, with differentiation based on packaging format (standard versus Cut Tape). WNC560FE provides an equivalent alternative with non-inductive construction characteristics while maintaining all specified electrical parameters and physical form factor compatibility.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can WHC560FET replace WHC560FE directly in circuit applications? A: Yes. WHC560FET maintains identical electrical specifications (560 Ohms ±1%, 2W, ±20ppm/°C) and physical dimensions (0.180" Dia x 0.449" L). The difference is packaging format (Cut Tape versus standard), which does not affect functional performance.

Q: What is the difference between WHC560FE and WNC560FE? A: Both parts provide 560 Ohms ±1% at 2W with identical operating temperature range (-55°C to 150°C) and physical dimensions. WNC560FE is designated as non-inductive wirewound construction within the WN series, while WHC560FE is standard wirewound in the WH series. Electrical parameters remain equivalent.

Q: Are all three parts suitable for the same PCB layout? A: Yes. All three parts share identical physical dimensions (0.180" Dia x 0.449" L) and axial package type, ensuring compatibility with the same through-hole footprint and PCB layout.

Q: Do all substitute parts meet the same compliance requirements? A: Yes. WHC560FE, WHC560FET, and WNC560FE are all ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting equivalent regulatory and environmental standards.

Q: Which part should be selected based on availability? A: Selection should be based on current inventory and supply chain requirements. WHC560FET offers 3572 pieces in stock, WNC560FE offers 1268 pieces, and WHC560FE offers 976 pieces. All three maintain equivalent electrical and mechanical specifications.
