Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the CSRF2512FT6L00 is determined by the following critical parameters:

Resistance value must be 6 mOhms with ±1% tolerance. Power rating must be 2W minimum. Package must be 2512 (6432 Metric) to ensure mechanical and electrical compatibility with PCB layouts. Operating temperature range must span -55°C to 170°C. Automotive AEC-Q200 qualification is required for applications in regulated automotive environments. RoHS3 compliance and MSL 1 rating must be maintained. Temperature coefficient of ±100ppm/°C ensures thermal stability equivalence.

The PE2512FKF7W0R006L from YAGEO meets all substitution criteria with identical electrical specifications and automotive certifications, though composition differs from metal foil to metal film construction.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the CSRF2512FT6L00 and PE2512FKF7W0R006L are active production parts with ROHS3 compliance and AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. Selection between these parts is based on availability and supply chain requirements rather than electrical performance differences. The CSRF2512FT6L00 uses metal foil construction, while the PE2512FKF7W0R006L uses metal film construction; both compositions satisfy the specified electrical parameters and temperature coefficient requirements. Dimensional variations are within acceptable tolerances for 2512 package footprints. Both parts maintain MSL 1 rating, indicating no moisture sensitivity constraints during storage or handling.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can PE2512FKF7W0R006L replace CSRF2512FT6L00 in automotive applications?

A: Yes. Both parts meet AEC-Q200 qualification, maintain identical resistance, tolerance, power rating, and operating temperature specifications. The metal film composition of the YAGEO part does not affect electrical equivalence for current sense applications at the specified parameters.

Q: Are there dimensional compatibility concerns between these parts?

A: Both parts use the 2512 (6432 Metric) package. The YAGEO part has slightly smaller dimensions (0.250" L x 0.125" W versus 0.254" L x 0.128" W) and lower seated height (0.035" versus 0.037"), which remain within standard 2512 package tolerances and do not affect PCB layout compatibility.

Q: Do both parts require the same moisture handling procedures?

A: Yes. Both parts carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) rating, indicating no moisture sensitivity constraints. Standard component storage and handling practices apply equally to both parts.

Q: What is the significance of the ±100ppm/°C temperature coefficient for substitution?

A: The temperature coefficient determines resistance stability across the operating temperature range. Both parts specify ±100ppm/°C, ensuring equivalent thermal performance in current sense circuits across -55°C to 170°C operation.

Q: Are there supply chain advantages to either part?

A: The PE2512FKF7W0R006L has higher inventory availability (7009 units) compared to the CSRF2512FT6L00 (781 units), which may influence lead time and procurement decisions.
