Engineering Selection Recommendations
Both the CV201210-R68K and AIML-0805-R68K-T maintain Active product status with full regulatory compliance. Selection between these parts is determined by packaging availability and supply chain requirements. The CV201210-R68K is supplied in Cut Tape (CT) & Digi-Reel® packaging with 2711 pieces in stock. The AIML-0805-R68K-T is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) packaging with 4770 pieces in stock. Both parts carry identical RoHS3, REACH, and ECCN classifications, ensuring equivalent compliance posture in regulated applications. Physical dimensions differ only in seated height: CV201210-R68K at 0.057" (1.45mm) maximum versus AIML-0805-R68K-T at 0.041" (1.05mm) maximum. This height differential may influence PCB assembly clearance considerations in space-constrained designs.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Can AIML-0805-R68K-T replace CV201210-R68K in existing designs?
A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical specifications including inductance value, current rating, DC resistance, and frequency characteristics. The 0805 (2012 Metric) package footprint is identical, enabling direct PCB layout compatibility. The height difference of 0.016" (0.40mm) should be evaluated for clearance in the specific application.
Q: What is the primary difference between these substitute parts?
A: The parts differ in packaging format and seated height. CV201210-R68K uses Cut Tape & Digi-Reel® packaging, while AIML-0805-R68K-T uses Tape & Reel packaging. The AIML-0805-R68K-T has a lower seated height (0.041" vs 0.057"), which may provide advantages in compact assemblies.
Q: Are both parts suitable for high-frequency applications?
A: Both parts are specified for operation at 25 MHz with a self-resonant frequency of 105 MHz. Selection should be based on the specific frequency requirements of the application circuit.
Q: Do these parts have identical compliance certifications?
A: Yes. Both parts are ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and classified as EAR99 for export control purposes. Moisture sensitivity level is identical at MSL 1 (unlimited).
Q: What packaging considerations apply to these substitutes?
A: CV201210-R68K is available in Cut Tape and Digi-Reel formats suitable for manual or automated assembly. AIML-0805-R68K-T is supplied in Tape & Reel format optimized for high-volume automated pick-and-place assembly. Packaging selection should align with production equipment and volume requirements.
