Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the CRL0805-FW-R240ELF is determined by the following criteria:

• Resistance value: 240 mOhms ±1%
• Package type: 0805 (2012 Metric)
• Composition: Thick Film
• Mechanical compatibility: 0.079" L x 0.049" W (2.00mm x 1.25mm), Height ≤ 0.024" (0.60mm)
• Regulatory compliance: ROHS3 Compliant, REACH Unaffected
• Moisture Sensitivity: MSL 1 or better

The RL0805FR-070R24L from YAGEO meets these core substitution criteria. Differences in power rating, temperature coefficient, and operating temperature range are noted but do not preclude substitution when application requirements permit.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both components are actively manufactured and ROHS3 compliant. The RL0805FR-070R24L includes AEC-Q200 automotive qualification and moisture-resistant characteristics. Selection between these parts depends on application-specific requirements:

The CRL0805-FW-R240ELF provides 0.25W power dissipation capacity and lower temperature coefficient (±200ppm/°C), suitable for applications requiring higher power handling or tighter thermal stability.

The RL0805FR-070R24L provides automotive-grade reliability (AEC-Q200) with extended operating temperature range to 155°C, appropriate for automotive and high-temperature environments where 0.125W power rating is sufficient.

Both components maintain identical mechanical footprint, resistance value, tolerance, and regulatory compliance status.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RL0805FR-070R24L replace CRL0805-FW-R240ELF in all applications?

A: Mechanical and electrical compatibility is maintained for resistance value, tolerance, and package dimensions. The substitute has lower power rating (0.125W vs 0.25W) and higher temperature coefficient (±600ppm/°C vs ±200ppm/°C). Applications must accommodate these differences.

Q: Are there package compatibility concerns?

A: Both components use identical 0805 (2012 Metric) package with matching footprint dimensions (0.079" L x 0.049" W) and maximum seated height (0.024"). PCB layout compatibility is maintained.

Q: What is the significance of the temperature coefficient difference?

A: The CRL0805-FW-R240ELF has ±200ppm/°C while RL0805FR-070R24L has ±600ppm/°C. Applications requiring stable resistance across temperature variations should account for this specification difference.

Q: Does AEC-Q200 qualification affect substitution?

A: AEC-Q200 is an additional qualification present on RL0805FR-070R24L. This does not prevent substitution but indicates automotive-grade reliability testing. Applications not requiring automotive qualification are unaffected.

Q: Are both parts RoHS and REACH compliant?

A: Both components are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current regulatory requirements for electronic component manufacturing and use.
