Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility is determined by strict equivalence across the following parameters:

• Resistance value: 20 kOhms
• Tolerance: ±0.25%
• Power rating: 0.063W (1/16W)
• Package type: 0402 (1005 Metric)
• Composition: Thin Film
• Temperature coefficient: ±10ppm/°C
• RoHS compliance: ROHS3 Compliant
• Moisture sensitivity: MSL 1

The ERA-2ARC2002X meets all substitution criteria while providing active product status and extended operating temperature capability.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The ERA-2ARC2002X is the direct substitute for ERA-2HRC2002P based on identical electrical and mechanical specifications. The substitute part offers the following advantages:

• Active product status ensures continued availability and supply chain reliability
• Extended operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 155°C vs. -55°C ~ 125°C) provides broader application compatibility
• Automotive AEC-Q200 qualification provides additional quality assurance for demanding environments
• ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 rating maintained across both parts

Selection of ERA-2ARC2002X is appropriate for all applications previously using ERA-2HRC2002P where the extended temperature range does not create design conflicts.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can ERA-2ARC2002X be used as a direct replacement for ERA-2HRC2002P?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical resistance (20 kOhms), tolerance (±0.25%), power rating (0.063W), package (0402), composition (thin film), and temperature coefficient (±10ppm/°C). Physical dimensions and termination count are identical, enabling direct PCB substitution.

Q: What is the difference between ERA-2HRC2002P and ERA-2ARC2002X?

A: The primary differences are product status and operating temperature range. ERA-2HRC2002P is obsolete with -55°C ~ 125°C operating range. ERA-2ARC2002X is active with -55°C ~ 155°C operating range and includes Automotive AEC-Q200 qualification.

Q: Are there package compatibility concerns?

A: No. Both parts use identical 0402 (1005 Metric) packaging with matching dimensions (0.039" L x 0.020" W, 1.00mm x 0.50mm) and height (0.016" maximum seated height). PCB footprints are interchangeable.

Q: Does the extended temperature range of ERA-2ARC2002X affect circuit performance?

A: The extended temperature range (-55°C ~ 155°C) does not degrade performance within the original operating range (-55°C ~ 125°C). Temperature coefficient remains ±10ppm/°C for both parts.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both ERA-2HRC2002P and ERA-2ARC2002X are ROHS3 compliant with MSL 1 (unlimited moisture sensitivity level).
