Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The PE2512FKE7W0R03L from YAGEO qualifies as a direct substitute for the CSRF2512FT30L0 based on the following critical parameters:

Electrical specifications match exactly: 30 mOhms resistance, ±1% tolerance, 2W power rating, and ±50ppm/°C temperature coefficient. Both parts operate across the identical temperature range of -55°C to 170°C and carry AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. Package designation remains 2512 (6432 Metric) with two terminations. Compliance certifications are equivalent: both are ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and classified under ECCN EAR99. Moisture sensitivity level is identical at MSL 1 (Unlimited).

The primary composition difference—metal foil versus metal film—does not disqualify substitution, as both materials achieve the specified electrical performance and tolerance within the defined operating parameters. Physical dimensions show minor variation within acceptable tolerances for the 2512 package footprint.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the CSRF2512FT30L0 and PE2512FKE7W0R03L are active production parts with equivalent electrical performance and automotive qualification. Selection between these components should be based on availability, supply chain requirements, and procurement lead times. Both parts satisfy ROHS3 compliance and REACH requirements for regulated markets. The AEC-Q200 certification on both parts confirms suitability for automotive current sensing applications. Physical footprint compatibility is maintained across both options within the 2512 package specification.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can PE2512FKE7W0R03L replace CSRF2512FT30L0 in automotive applications?

A: Yes. Both parts carry AEC-Q200 qualification, identical electrical specifications (30 mOhms ±1%, 2W, ±50ppm/°C), and operate across -55°C to 170°C. The 2512 package footprint is compatible.

Q: What is the difference between metal foil and metal film composition in these resistors?

A: Both compositions achieve the specified ±1% tolerance and ±50ppm/°C temperature coefficient. The composition difference does not affect electrical performance within the defined parameters.

Q: Are the physical dimensions identical between these parts?

A: Dimensions are within acceptable tolerance for the 2512 (6432 Metric) package. CSRF2512FT30L0 measures 0.254" L × 0.128" W (6.45mm × 3.25mm) with 0.037" max height. PE2512FKE7W0R03L measures 0.250" L × 0.125" W (6.35mm × 3.18mm) with 0.035" max height. Both fit standard 2512 footprints.

Q: Do both parts meet compliance requirements for regulated markets?

A: Yes. Both are ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and classified as EAR99. MSL rating is 1 (Unlimited) for both parts.

Q: Which part should be selected for new designs?

A: Either part is acceptable. Selection should be based on supplier availability, inventory levels, and procurement timelines. Both meet identical electrical and compliance specifications.
