ERJ-S02F8R20X Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The ERJ-S02F8R20X is an 8.2 Ohm ±1% thick film chip resistor manufactured by Panasonic Electronic Components in the 0402 (1005 Metric) package format. This component is rated for 0.1W (1/10W) power dissipation and features anti-sulfur construction with AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. The part operates across a temperature range of -55°C to 155°C with a temperature coefficient of -100/+600ppm/°C. The ERJ-S02F8R20X maintains Active product status and is RoHS3 compliant. Substitute parts are identified when electrical specifications, mechanical dimensions, package format, and compliance ratings remain identical across alternative part numbers or series designations.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the ERJ-S02F8R20X is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Electrical Specifications: Resistance value (8.2 Ohms), tolerance (±1%), and power rating (0.1W) must be identical. Temperature coefficient (-100/+600ppm/°C) and operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 155°C) must match exactly.

Mechanical Specifications: Package format must be 0402 (1005 Metric) with identical physical dimensions (0.039" L x 0.020" W / 1.00mm x 0.50mm) and maximum seated height (0.016" / 0.40mm). Two terminations are required.

Material & Construction: Thick film composition and anti-sulfur feature set must be maintained.

Compliance & Ratings: AEC-Q200 automotive qualification, RoHS3 compliance, and Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited) are mandatory for substitution eligibility.

Series Designation: While the ERJ-S02F8R20X belongs to the ERJ-S02 series, substitute parts may originate from different Panasonic series (such as ERJ-U02) provided all electrical, mechanical, and compliance parameters remain identical.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The ERJ-U02F8R20X is a direct functional equivalent to the ERJ-S02F8R20X. Both parts are manufactured by Panasonic Electronic Components and maintain identical electrical, mechanical, and compliance specifications. Both parts carry Active product status, ensuring continued availability and manufacturing support.

Selection between these parts is based on inventory availability and supply chain considerations. The ERJ-S02F8R20X is available with 691 pieces in stock, while the ERJ-U02F8R20X is available with 13,543 pieces in stock. Both parts satisfy AEC-Q200 automotive qualification requirements and RoHS3 compliance mandates. The series designation difference (ERJ-S02 versus ERJ-U02) reflects internal Panasonic product line organization and does not affect functional performance or application compatibility.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the ERJ-U02F8R20X be used as a direct replacement for the ERJ-S02F8R20X?

A: Yes. The ERJ-U02F8R20X is a direct functional equivalent. All electrical specifications (8.2 Ohms ±1%, 0.1W power rating, -100/+600ppm/°C temperature coefficient), mechanical dimensions (0402 package, 1.00mm x 0.50mm), and compliance ratings (AEC-Q200, RoHS3) are identical.

Q: What determines whether a part can substitute for the ERJ-S02F8R20X?

A: Substitution requires exact matching of resistance value (8.2 Ohms), tolerance (±1%), power rating (0.1W), package format (0402 / 1005 Metric), composition (thick film), anti-sulfur feature, AEC-Q200 rating, temperature coefficient (-100/+600ppm/°C), operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 155°C), and RoHS3 compliance status.

Q: Does the series designation (ERJ-S02 versus ERJ-U02) affect compatibility?

A: No. The series designation reflects Panasonic's internal product line organization. Provided all electrical, mechanical, and compliance parameters are identical, parts from different series designations are functionally equivalent.

Q: Are both parts suitable for automotive applications?

A: Yes. Both the ERJ-S02F8R20X and ERJ-U02F8R20X carry AEC-Q200 automotive qualification and anti-sulfur construction, making them suitable for automotive circuit applications.

Q: What is the significance of the 0402 package format?

A: The 0402 (1005 Metric) package format specifies the physical dimensions (0.039" L x 0.020" W / 1.00mm x 0.50mm) and maximum seated height (0.016" / 0.40mm). This format is standard for surface-mount applications and determines PCB footprint compatibility. Substitute parts must maintain identical package dimensions.

Q: Are there any moisture sensitivity concerns with these parts?

A: No. Both parts carry Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions during storage, handling, or assembly.
