Part Overview

The AC0201FR-07976KL is a 976 kOhms ±1% thick film chip resistor in 0201 package (0.60mm x 0.30mm) rated for 0.05W power dissipation. This automotive-grade component features AEC-Q200 qualification and moisture resistance, designed for high-reliability applications operating across -55°C to 155°C. The part is active in production with 929 units in current inventory. Equivalent and substitute parts are identified based on matching electrical specifications, package dimensions, and compliance certifications to ensure direct functional interchangeability in circuit designs.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters: resistance value (976 kOhms), tolerance (±1%), power rating (0.05W), package type (0201), composition (thick film), temperature coefficient (±200ppm/°C), and compliance certifications (ROHS3, MSL 1). All identified substitutes match these core electrical and mechanical specifications. Operating temperature range variations and feature differences (such as automotive AEC-Q200 rating) are noted but do not preclude functional substitution when application requirements permit.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All listed substitute parts maintain electrical equivalence to the AC0201FR-07976KL across resistance, tolerance, power rating, and thermal characteristics. Selection should prioritize application requirements regarding operating temperature range and automotive qualification status.

For applications requiring full -55°C to 155°C operation with AEC-Q200 automotive compliance, the AC0201FR-07976KL (original) and RMCF0201FT976K (Stackpole) are direct matches. Both parts carry AEC-Q200 ratings and support the extended upper temperature limit.

For applications with -55°C to 125°C operating requirements, RC0201FR-07976KL (YAGEO) and ERJ-1GNF9763C (Panasonic) provide functional equivalence without automotive qualification. The CRCW0201976KFNED (Vishay Dale) supports -55°C to 155°C operation but lacks AEC-Q200 certification.

All parts are ROHS3 compliant with MSL 1 moisture sensitivity rating and 0201 package compatibility. Inventory availability ranges from 893 to 170904 units across suppliers.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RC0201FR-07976KL replace AC0201FR-07976KL in automotive applications?

A: RC0201FR-07976KL matches all electrical parameters but operates only to 125°C versus 155°C for the original part. It lacks AEC-Q200 automotive certification. Substitution is valid only if the application's maximum operating temperature does not exceed 125°C and automotive qualification is not required.

Q: What is the difference between RMCF0201FT976K and CRCW0201976KFNED?

A: Both parts support -55°C to 155°C operation and match all electrical specifications. RMCF0201FT976K carries AEC-Q200 automotive qualification; CRCW0201976KFNED does not. Height-seated maximum differs slightly (0.011" vs 0.010"), which may affect PCB layout in space-constrained designs.

Q: Are all substitute parts in the same 0201 package?

A: Yes. All listed parts use the 0201 (0603 Metric) package with identical length and width (0.024" x 0.012" / 0.60mm x 0.30mm). Height-seated maximum is 0.010" for most parts, with RMCF0201FT976K at 0.011". This minor variation is within standard PCB assembly tolerances.

Q: Which substitute offers the best inventory availability?

A: ERJ-1GNF9763C (Panasonic) has the highest inventory at 170904 units. However, it operates only to 125°C and lacks AEC-Q200 certification. For automotive applications requiring full temperature range, CRCW0201976KFNED (Vishay Dale) offers 22324 units.

Q: Do all parts meet RoHS and REACH compliance?

A: Yes. All listed parts are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected. Moisture sensitivity level is MSL 1 (unlimited) for all parts, indicating no special storage or handling requirements.
