Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the CRCW0805825RFKEAC is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

  • Resistance value: 825 Ohms (exact match required)
  • Tolerance: ±1% (exact match required)
  • Power rating: 0.125W / 1/8W (exact match required)
  • Package type: 0805 (2012 Metric) (exact match required)
  • Composition: Thick Film (exact match required)
  • Temperature coefficient: ±100ppm/°C (exact match required)
  • Operating temperature range: -55°C ~ 155°C (exact match or wider range acceptable)
  • Physical dimensions: 0.079" L x 0.049" W / 2.00mm x 1.25mm (exact match required)
  • Regulatory compliance: RoHS3 Compliant, REACH Unaffected (minimum requirement)

The CR0805-FX-8250ELF from Bourns Inc. meets all substitution criteria with identical electrical specifications and mechanical compatibility. The addition of moisture-resistant thick film composition in the Bourns variant provides enhanced environmental protection while maintaining full functional equivalence.
