Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the CSRF2512JT3L00 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Resistance value: 3 mOhms (exact match required)
• Power rating: 2W (exact match required)
• Package: 2512 (6432 Metric) (exact match required)
• Composition: Metal Foil (exact match required)
• Temperature coefficient: ±100ppm/°C (exact match required)
• Operating temperature range: -55°C to 170°C (exact match required)
• AEC-Q200 automotive qualification (exact match required)
• Moisture sensitivity level: MSL 1 (exact match required)
• RoHS compliance: ROHS3 (exact match required)

The CSRF2512FT3L00 qualifies as a direct substitute because it maintains all critical electrical and mechanical parameters while offering improved tolerance specification (±1% versus ±5%).
