Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the CRCW020123K2FKED is determined by strict equivalence across the following parameters:

• Resistance value: 23.2 kOhms (exact match required)
• Tolerance: ±1% (exact match required)
• Power rating: 0.05W / 1/20W (exact match required)
• Package format: 0201 (0603 Metric) (exact match required)
• Composition: Thick Film (exact match required)
• Operating temperature range: -55°C ~ 155°C (minimum required)
• RoHS3 compliance status (required for regulated applications)
• Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (required for storage and handling compatibility)

The CRCW020123K2FNED qualifies as a direct substitute based on full alignment with all mandatory electrical and mechanical parameters. Variations in temperature coefficient (±200ppm/°C vs. ±100ppm/°C) remain within acceptable substitution criteria for this resistor category, as both values fall within standard thick film specifications and do not alter the functional performance envelope for typical circuit applications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both CRCW020123K2FKED and CRCW020123K2FNED are Active product status components manufactured by Vishay Dale with full ROHS3 compliance and identical electrical specifications. Selection between these parts should be based on:

• Inventory availability and lead time requirements
• Supply chain logistics and regional sourcing preferences
• Cost considerations where applicable
• Temperature coefficient tolerance requirements for precision circuit applications

The CRCW020123K2FNED demonstrates higher inventory availability (29,458 pcs vs. 787 pcs), making it the preferred substitute for applications where supply continuity is a priority. Both components satisfy identical mechanical and thermal requirements for 0201 package PCB assembly processes.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can CRCW020123K2FNED be used as a direct replacement for CRCW020123K2FKED in production?

A: Yes. Both components share identical resistance value (23.2 kOhms), tolerance (±1%), power rating (0.05W), package format (0201), and operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 155°C). Mechanical compatibility and electrical performance are equivalent for standard circuit applications.

Q: What is the difference between the temperature coefficients listed for these parts?

A: The CRCW020123K2FKED specifies ±100ppm/°C while the CRCW020123K2FNED specifies ±200ppm/°C. Both values are within standard thick film resistor specifications. Selection depends on circuit precision requirements; applications requiring tighter temperature stability should specify the ±100ppm/°C variant.

Q: Are both parts suitable for automated PCB assembly?

A: Yes. Both components are supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) packaging format compatible with standard SMD pick-and-place equipment. Identical 0201 package dimensions (0.60mm x 0.30mm) and height specifications (0.26mm max) ensure seamless integration into existing assembly processes.

Q: What is the Moisture Sensitivity Level significance for these resistors?

A: Both parts carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) classification, indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions. These components do not require special moisture control during storage, handling, or assembly, simplifying supply chain management and reducing storage costs.

Q: Are these parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both CRCW020123K2FKED and CRCW020123K2FNED are ROHS3 compliant, meeting current regulatory requirements for restricted substance elimination in electronic components.
