AC0201JR-072RL Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The AC0201JR-072RL is a 2 Ohm ±5% thick film chip resistor in 0201 package format, rated for 0.05W (1/20W) power dissipation. This component is manufactured by YAGEO and carries AEC-Q200 automotive qualification with moisture resistance. The part is currently in active production status with 1167 pieces available in inventory.

Substitute parts are identified when electrical specifications, mechanical dimensions, and compliance ratings remain equivalent or superior, enabling direct replacement in circuit applications without design modification.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The RC0201JR-072RL qualifies as a direct substitute based on the following critical parameters:

• Electrical Match: Identical resistance value (2 Ohms) and tolerance (±5%)
• Power Rating: Equivalent 0.05W (1/20W) specification
• Package Compatibility: Identical 0201 (0603 Metric) footprint and physical dimensions
• Composition: Matching thick film construction
• Temperature Coefficient: Identical -100 / +350 ppm/°C specification
• Compliance: ROHS3 compliant with MSL 1 rating
• Moisture Resistance: Both parts feature moisture-resistant construction

The RC0201JR-072RL operates within a -55°C ~ 125°C temperature range, which is narrower than the AC0201JR-072RL (-55°C ~ 155°C). This difference must be evaluated against specific application requirements.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both AC0201JR-072RL and RC0201JR-072RL are active production components from YAGEO with ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 ratings. Selection between these parts depends on application temperature requirements:

• AC0201JR-072RL: Select when operating temperature extends to 155°C or when AEC-Q200 automotive qualification is mandatory
• RC0201JR-072RL: Select for applications operating within -55°C ~ 125°C range where higher inventory availability is advantageous

Both parts are suitable for moisture-sensitive environments due to MSL 1 classification and moisture-resistant thick film construction.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RC0201JR-072RL replace AC0201JR-072RL in all applications?

A: RC0201JR-072RL is electrically and mechanically compatible. Substitution is valid when the application operating temperature does not exceed 125°C. If your circuit operates above 125°C, the AC0201JR-072RL is required.

Q: What is the difference between AC and RC series designations?

A: Both are YAGEO thick film resistor series. The AC series includes AEC-Q200 automotive qualification; the RC_L series does not carry this specific automotive rating. Electrical and mechanical specifications remain equivalent.

Q: Are the physical footprints identical?

A: Yes. Both parts use the 0201 (0603 Metric) package with identical dimensions: 0.024" L x 0.012" W (0.60mm x 0.30mm) and maximum seated height of 0.010" (0.26mm). PCB layout and assembly processes require no modification.

Q: What does MSL 1 (Unlimited) mean for moisture sensitivity?

A: MSL 1 classification indicates the component has unlimited shelf life under standard storage conditions. No special moisture control or baking procedures are required prior to soldering.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both AC0201JR-072RL and RC0201JR-072RL are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected.
