Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the CSC08A032K00GEK is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters: resistance value (2kΩ), tolerance (±2%), number of resistors (4), circuit topology (isolated), power rating per element (300mW), temperature coefficient (±100ppm/°C), operating temperature range (-55°C to 125°C), pin count (8), and package designation (8-SIP). Both identified substitute parts—4308R-102-202LF and 4608X-102-202LF from Bourns Inc.—meet all mandatory electrical and mechanical specifications. Variations in physical dimensions, resistor-ratio-drift specifications, and packaging formats (tube versus bulk) do not affect functional interchangeability within the defined parameter set.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three parts—CSC08A032K00GEK, 4308R-102-202LF, and 4608X-102-202LF—maintain active product status and satisfy ROHS3 compliance requirements. The CSC08A032K00GEK carries REACH Unaffected status, while 4308R-102-202LF is REACH Affected and 4608X-102-202LF is REACH Unaffected. Selection between these parts should be based on supply chain requirements, packaging format preference (tube or bulk), and regulatory compliance obligations specific to the end application. All parts are functionally equivalent within the specified electrical and mechanical parameter boundaries.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 4308R-102-202LF and 4608X-102-202LF be used interchangeably with CSC08A032K00GEK?

A: Yes. Both Bourns parts meet all critical electrical parameters: 2kΩ resistance, ±2% tolerance, 4-resistor isolated configuration, 300mW per element, ±100ppm/°C temperature coefficient, and 8-SIP through-hole package. Physical dimension variations and packaging formats do not affect functional compatibility.

Q: What is the difference between the two Bourns substitute parts?

A: The 4308R-102-202LF is supplied in tube packaging, while 4608X-102-102LF is supplied in bulk packaging. Electrical specifications are identical. The 4308R series has a specified resistor-ratio-drift of 50ppm/°C, whereas the 4608X series does not specify this parameter. Both parts are ROHS3 compliant.

Q: Are there any compliance differences between these parts?

A: The CSC08A032K00GEK and 4608X-102-202LF are both REACH Unaffected. The 4308R-102-202LF is REACH Affected. All three parts are ROHS3 compliant and carry EAR99 ECCN classification.

Q: Do physical dimensions affect substitution?

A: Physical dimensions vary slightly between parts (length ranges from 19.91mm to 20.27mm, width from 2.16mm to 2.49mm, height from 4.95mm to 5.08mm). These variations are within typical manufacturing tolerances for 8-SIP packages and do not prevent functional substitution in standard through-hole PCB applications.

Q: What packaging options are available?

A: CSC08A032K00GEK is supplied in bulk packaging. 4308R-102-202LF is supplied in tube packaging. 4608X-102-202LF is supplied in bulk packaging. Selection depends on procurement and assembly requirements.
