Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

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

• Resistance value: 698 Ohms
• Tolerance: ±1%
• Power rating: 0.05W (1/20W)
• Package format: 0201 (0603 Metric)
• Composition: Thick Film
• Temperature coefficient: ±200ppm/°C
• Physical dimensions: 0.024" L × 0.012" W, height ≤0.010"
• Termination count: 2
• RoHS3 compliance
• MSL rating: 1 (Unlimited)

All substitute parts listed meet these core electrical and mechanical specifications. Operating temperature range variations and product status differences are noted in the comparison table but do not preclude substitution where application requirements permit.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Selection (Preferred): RC0201FR-07698RL (YAGEO) or CRCW0201698RFNED (Vishay Dale) are recommended as primary alternatives. Both are active products with high inventory availability. RC0201FR-07698RL maintains YAGEO series continuity with the main part. CRCW0201698RFNED provides cross-manufacturer redundancy from an established supplier.

Secondary Selection: ERJ-1GNF6980C (Panasonic) is an active product with the highest inventory level (84072 pcs) and serves as a viable alternative for applications where the -55°C to 125°C operating range is acceptable.

Not Recommended for New Designs: ERJ-1GEF6980C is obsolete and should not be selected for new production designs despite current inventory availability.

Temperature Consideration: Applications requiring the full -55°C to 155°C range must use AC0201FR-07698RL or CRCW0201698RFNED. Applications limited to -55°C to 125°C may use any listed part.

Packaging Note: RC0201FR-07698RL is supplied in Tape & Reel format matching the main part. ERJ-1GNF6980C is also Tape & Reel. CRCW0201698RFNED is Tape & Reel. ERJ-1GEF6980C uses Cut Tape & Digi-Reel packaging.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RC0201FR-07698RL replace AC0201FR-07698RL in all applications? A: RC0201FR-07698RL is electrically and mechanically equivalent with one exception: operating temperature range is -55°C to 125°C versus -55°C to 155°C. Substitution is valid for applications not exceeding 125°C. For applications requiring operation above 125°C, use AC0201FR-07698RL or CRCW0201698RFNED.

Q: What is the difference between YAGEO AC and RC series? A: Both are YAGEO 0201 thick film resistors with identical electrical specifications (698 Ω, ±1%, 0.05W, ±200ppm/°C). AC series includes automotive AEC-Q200 qualification and moisture resistance. RC series includes moisture resistance but lacks AEC-Q200 rating. Selection depends on automotive qualification requirements.

Q: Is ERJ-1GEF6980C suitable for new production? A: No. ERJ-1GEF6980C is marked obsolete and should not be used in new designs. Use ERJ-1GNF6980C (active Panasonic equivalent) or other active alternatives instead.

Q: Are all substitute parts RoHS3 compliant? A: Yes. All listed parts are ROHS3 compliant with MSL rating 1 (unlimited moisture sensitivity level).

Q: Does packaging format affect substitution? A: All parts use 0201 (0603 Metric) package with identical dimensions (0.024" L × 0.012" W, height ≤0.010"). Packaging format is compatible across all substitutes. Tape & Reel and Cut Tape formats are both suitable for automated assembly.

Q: Can I mix manufacturers in the same production batch? A: Yes. All substitute parts meet identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Cross-manufacturer substitution is valid provided application temperature requirements are met and any automotive qualification requirements are satisfied.
