WHD560FET Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The WHD560FET is a 560 Ohms ±1% 3W through-hole resistor manufactured by Ohmite in axial wirewound composition. This component is classified as Active product status with 671 pieces currently in stock. The WHD560FET is packaged in Cut Tape (CT) format and is designed for applications requiring precision resistive elements with stable thermal characteristics across industrial temperature ranges.

Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical specifications, mechanical dimensions, and compliance certifications align with the original component, enabling direct replacement in circuit designs without performance degradation.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the WHD560FET is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Resistance value: 560 Ohms (exact match required)
• Tolerance: ±1% (exact match required)
• Power rating: 3W (exact match required)
• Composition: Wirewound (exact match required)
• Package type: Axial (exact match required)
• Temperature coefficient: ±20ppm/°C (exact match required)
• Operating temperature range: -55°C to 150°C (exact match required)
• Physical dimensions: 0.217" Dia x 0.533" L (exact match required)

The WND560FET meets all substitution criteria. Packaging format differs (Tape & Reel vs. Cut Tape), which does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility in circuit applications. The WND560FET incorporates non-inductive construction, an additional feature that does not compromise substitution eligibility.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both WHD560FET and WND560FET are Active status components manufactured by Ohmite with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Selection between these parts is determined by procurement and assembly requirements rather than circuit performance.

The WHD560FET in Cut Tape packaging is suitable for manual assembly and lower-volume applications. The WND560FET in Tape & Reel packaging is optimized for automated pick-and-place assembly processes and higher-volume production runs. Both components maintain RoHS compliance and are suitable for industrial temperature applications from -55°C to 150°C.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can WND560FET replace WHD560FET in existing circuit designs?

A: Yes. Both components share identical electrical specifications (560 Ohms ±1%, 3W), thermal characteristics (±20ppm/°C, -55°C to 150°C operating range), and physical dimensions (0.217" Dia x 0.533" L). The difference in packaging format (Tape & Reel vs. Cut Tape) does not affect circuit performance or component mounting compatibility.

Q: What is the difference between Cut Tape and Tape & Reel packaging?

A: Cut Tape (CT) packaging provides individual component strips suitable for manual assembly and small-quantity applications. Tape & Reel (TR) packaging supplies components on continuous reels optimized for automated assembly equipment. Both formats contain identical components with no electrical or mechanical differences.

Q: Does the non-inductive feature of WND560FET affect substitution compatibility?

A: No. Non-inductive construction is an additional design feature that reduces parasitic inductance. This characteristic does not compromise substitution eligibility and may provide performance benefits in high-frequency applications.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. WHD560FET is ROHS3 Compliant. WND560FET is RoHS Compliant. Both meet regulatory requirements for hazardous substance restrictions.

Q: What inventory levels are available?

A: WHD560FET (Cut Tape): 671 pieces in stock. WND560FET (Tape & Reel): 1602 pieces in stock.
