Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility is determined by matching the following critical parameters across all candidates:

  • Resistance value: 255 Ohms
  • Tolerance: ±1%
  • Power rating: 0.05W (1/20W)
  • Package: 0201 (0603 Metric)
  • Composition: Thick Film
  • Temperature coefficient: ±200ppm/°C
  • RoHS compliance: ROHS3
  • MSL rating: 1 (Unlimited)
  • Number of terminations: 2

All identified substitutes meet these core electrical and mechanical requirements. Operating temperature range varies between -55°C to 155°C (AC0201FR-07255RL, CRCW0201255RFNED, RMCF0201FT255R) and -55°C to 125°C (RC0201FR-07255RL, ERJ-1GNF2550C). AEC-Q200 automotive qualification is present on AC0201FR-07255RL and RMCF0201FT255R only.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For applications requiring AEC-Q200 automotive qualification, AC0201FR-07255RL (primary) and RMCF0201FT255R (substitute) are the qualified options. Both support the full -55°C to 155°C operating range.

For non-automotive applications or where the upper temperature limit of 125°C is acceptable, RC0201FR-07255RL, CRCW0201255RFNED, and ERJ-1GNF2550C provide equivalent electrical performance with ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 rating.

All parts are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected. Selection should account for application temperature requirements, supply availability, and procurement lead times.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RC0201FR-07255RL replace AC0201FR-07255RL in automotive applications?

A: RC0201FR-07255RL lacks AEC-Q200 qualification and operates only to 125°C versus 155°C. Use only if the application does not require automotive qualification and operates within the 125°C limit.

Q: What is the height difference between RMCF0201FT255R and other substitutes?

A: RMCF0201FT255R has a maximum seated height of 0.011" (0.28mm) compared to 0.010" (0.26mm) for most other parts. This 0.001" difference is within typical PCB assembly tolerances for 0201 packages but should be confirmed for high-density layouts.

Q: Are all substitutes in the same 0201 package?

A: Yes. All parts use the 0201 (0603 Metric) package with identical footprint dimensions of 0.024" L x 0.012" W (0.60mm x 0.30mm), ensuring direct PCB compatibility.

Q: Which substitute has the highest inventory availability?

A: ERJ-1GNF2550C (Panasonic) has 54,023 units in stock, followed by RC0201FR-07255RL (YAGEO) with 20,663 units.

Q: Do all substitutes have the same temperature coefficient?

A: Yes. All parts, including the main part AC0201FR-07255RL, have a temperature coefficient of ±200ppm/°C.

Q: What is the difference between operating temperature ranges?

A: AC0201FR-07255RL, CRCW0201255RFNED, and RMCF0201FT255R operate to 155°C. RC0201FR-07255RL and ERJ-1GNF2550C operate to 125°C. Select based on application maximum temperature requirements.
