Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the CSRN2512FTR560 is determined by the following critical parameters:

Resistance value: 560 mOhms
Tolerance: ±1%
Power rating: 2W
Package type: 2512 (6432 Metric)
Composition: Thick Film
Operating temperature range: -55°C ~ 155°C
Termination count: 2
Environmental compliance: ROHS3 Compliant, MSL 1

Two substitute parts meet these core electrical and mechanical requirements: RLP73K3AR56FTDF (TE Connectivity Passive Product) and RCWE2512R560FKEA (Vishay Dale). Both parts maintain identical resistance, tolerance, power rating, package configuration, and operating temperature specifications. Dimensional variations and temperature coefficient differences are within acceptable engineering tolerances for current sense applications.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

RCWE2512R560FKEA (Vishay Dale) is the preferred substitute for automotive applications requiring AEC-Q200 qualification. This part maintains identical AEC-Q200 certification as the CSRN2512FTR560, includes moisture-resistant construction, and features a lower temperature coefficient (±100ppm/°C vs ±200ppm/°C), providing improved thermal stability. Dimensional compatibility is confirmed with maximum seated height of 0.028" matching the original specification.

RLP73K3AR56FTDF (TE Connectivity Passive Product) is suitable for non-automotive current sense applications where AEC-Q200 certification is not required. This part offers the highest inventory availability (10383 units) and maintains identical electrical specifications and package dimensions as the CSRN2512FTR560, with the exception of a 0.005" increase in maximum seated height (0.033" vs 0.028"). This dimensional difference must be evaluated against specific PCB layout constraints.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RLP73K3AR56FTDF replace CSRN2512FTR560 in automotive applications?

A: RLP73K3AR56FTDF lacks AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. Use only in non-automotive current sense applications. For automotive designs, select RCWE2512R560FKEA.

Q: What is the impact of the 0.005" height difference between RLP73K3AR56FTDF and CSRN2512FTR560?

A: RLP73K3AR56FTDF has a maximum seated height of 0.033" compared to 0.028" for CSRN2512FTR560. Verify PCB clearance and component stacking requirements before substitution.

Q: Are all three parts pin-compatible?

A: Yes. All three parts feature 2 terminations in 2512 (6432 Metric) package with identical lead spacing and footprint compatibility.

Q: Does temperature coefficient difference affect circuit performance?

A: RCWE2512R560FKEA features ±100ppm/°C compared to ±200ppm/°C for CSRN2512FTR560 and RLP73K3AR56FTDF. The lower coefficient provides improved resistance stability across the -55°C ~ 155°C operating range. Evaluate circuit sensitivity to resistance drift when selecting between parts.

Q: Are all substitute parts RoHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. CSRN2512FTR560, RLP73K3AR56FTDF, and RCWE2512R560FKEA are all ROHS3 Compliant with MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating.

Q: Which substitute offers the best inventory availability?

A: RLP73K3AR56FTDF has 10383 units in stock, compared to 2200 units for RCWE2512R560FKEA and 1068 units for CSRN2512FTR560.
