Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the CRL2010-FW-R100ELF is determined by the following criteria:

• Resistance value: 100 mOhms (0.1 Ohm)
• Tolerance: ±1%
• Power rating: 0.75W (3/4W)
• Package format: 2010 (5025 Metric)
• Composition: Thick Film
• Temperature coefficient: ±200ppm/°C
• Physical dimensions: 0.197" L x 0.098" W (5.00mm x 2.50mm), height 0.028" (0.70mm) maximum
• Termination count: 2
• Compliance: ROHS3, MSL 1, REACH Unaffected

The RMCF2010FTR100 from Stackpole Electronics Inc. meets all these criteria and qualifies as a direct substitute.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the CRL2010-FW-R100ELF and RMCF2010FTR100 are active products with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. The RMCF2010FTR100 carries AEC-Q200 automotive qualification and supports an extended operating temperature range to 155°C compared to 125°C for the CRL2010-FW-R100ELF. Selection between these parts depends on application requirements: the Bourns part is suitable for standard industrial applications, while the Stackpole part is qualified for automotive environments and applications requiring the extended upper temperature limit.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RMCF2010FTR100 be used as a direct replacement for CRL2010-FW-R100ELF?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical resistance value (100 mOhms), tolerance (±1%), power rating (0.75W), package format (2010), composition (thick film), temperature coefficient (±200ppm/°C), physical dimensions, and compliance certifications. The RMCF2010FTR100 provides additional AEC-Q200 automotive qualification and extended temperature range capability.

Q: What is the difference in operating temperature range?

A: The CRL2010-FW-R100ELF operates from -55°C to 125°C. The RMCF2010FTR100 operates from -55°C to 155°C. Applications requiring operation above 125°C must use the Stackpole part.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both the CRL2010-FW-R100ELF and RMCF2010FTR100 are ROHS3 compliant with MSL 1 (unlimited moisture sensitivity level) and REACH unaffected status.

Q: Does package compatibility affect substitution?

A: No. Both parts use the identical 2010 (5025 metric) package with matching physical dimensions (0.197" L x 0.098" W, 0.028" maximum height) and two terminations. PCB footprints and reflow profiles are compatible.

Q: What is AEC-Q200 qualification?

A: AEC-Q200 is an automotive electronics qualification standard. The RMCF2010FTR100 carries this certification, indicating suitability for automotive applications. The CRL2010-FW-R100ELF does not specify this rating.
