CRCW0805825KFKEAC Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The CRCW0805825KFKEAC is a 825 kOhms ±1% 0.125W thick film chip resistor in 0805 (2012 Metric) package manufactured by Vishay Dale. This component is currently active in production and widely used in general-purpose electronic applications requiring precision resistive elements. Substitute parts become necessary when the primary manufacturer part is unavailable, when design requirements demand specific certifications such as automotive qualification, or when enhanced features like moisture resistance are required for specific application environments.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the CRCW0805825KFKEAC is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters: resistance value (825 kOhms), tolerance (±1%), power rating (0.125W), package type (0805), composition (thick film), temperature coefficient (±100ppm/°C), and operating temperature range (-55°C to 155°C). All identified substitute parts meet these core electrical and mechanical specifications. The substitute parts are grouped into two categories: direct equivalents with standard specifications, and upgraded variants offering enhanced features such as automotive qualification or moisture-resistant construction. Product status and availability are secondary considerations that inform selection priority but do not affect electrical compatibility.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For standard applications where the CRCW0805825KFKEAC is unavailable, the CR0805-FX-8253ELF (Bourns) and KTR10EZPF8253 (Rohm) are preferred substitutes. Both maintain active product status and full ROHS3 compliance. The CR0805-FX-8253ELF offers moisture-resistant construction, suitable for applications exposed to humidity or condensation. The KTR10EZPF8253 carries automotive AEC-Q200 qualification and high-voltage rating, making it appropriate for automotive and industrial applications requiring enhanced reliability standards. The MCR10ERTF8253 (Rohm) is electrically equivalent but carries discontinued status at DiGi Electronics, limiting its suitability for new designs requiring long-term supply assurance.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can MCR10ERTF8253 be used as a direct replacement for CRCW0805825KFKEAC? A: Yes, MCR10ERTF8253 meets all core electrical and mechanical specifications. However, its discontinued status at DiGi Electronics may limit availability for production quantities and future replenishment.

Q: What is the difference between CR0805-FX-8253ELF and the standard CRCW0805825KFKEAC? A: Both parts are electrically identical. CR0805-FX-8253ELF includes moisture-resistant construction, providing enhanced performance in humid environments. Physical dimensions and thermal characteristics remain equivalent.

Q: Is KTR10EZPF8253 suitable for non-automotive applications? A: Yes. KTR10EZPF8253 exceeds the specifications of CRCW0805825KFKEAC through automotive AEC-Q200 qualification and high-voltage rating. These enhanced certifications do not restrict use in general-purpose applications and provide additional design margin.

Q: Are all substitute parts available in the same packaging format? A: All substitute parts use 0805 (2012 Metric) package. Packaging format differs: CRCW0805825KFKEAC and CR0805-FX-8253ELF are supplied in Tape & Reel (TR), while MCR10ERTF8253 is supplied in Cut Tape (CT) & Digi-Reel®, and KTR10EZPF8253 is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR).

Q: Do substitute parts require PCB layout modifications? A: No. All substitute parts share identical 0805 package dimensions (0.079" L x 0.049" W / 2.00mm x 1.25mm) and footprint requirements. Direct PCB substitution is possible without layout changes.

Q: What compliance certifications apply to all substitute options? A: All parts are ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and classified as EAR99 for export control purposes. Moisture Sensitivity Level is 1 (Unlimited) for all options.
