Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the ERJ-S03F8R20V is based on strict equivalence of the following critical parameters:

Electrical Parameters:

• Resistance value: 8.2 Ohms
• Tolerance: ±1%
• Power rating: 0.1W (1/10W)
• Temperature coefficient: -100 / +600 ppm/°C
• Operating temperature range: -55°C ~ 155°C

Mechanical Parameters:

• Package type: 0603 (1608 Metric)
• Physical dimensions: 0.063" L x 0.031" W (1.60mm x 0.80mm)
• Height - Seated (Max): 0.022" (0.55mm)
• Number of terminations: 2

Compliance & Qualification:

• Composition: Thick Film
• Features: Anti-Sulfur, Automotive AEC-Q200
• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited)
• REACH Status: REACH Unaffected

The substitute part ERJ-U03F8R20V matches all electrical, mechanical, and compliance parameters, differing only in the base product series designation (ERJ-U03 versus ERJ-S03).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the ERJ-S03F8R20V and ERJ-U03F8R20V are active production components manufactured by Panasonic Electronic Components with identical electrical specifications, mechanical dimensions, and compliance certifications. Both parts are ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and carry AEC-Q200 automotive qualification with anti-sulfur coating.

The ERJ-U03F8R20V offers significantly higher inventory availability (13,578 pieces versus 901 pieces), making it the preferred selection for high-volume production requirements or extended lead-time mitigation. Both parts are suitable for automotive and industrial applications operating within the -55°C to 155°C temperature range.

Selection between these parts should be based on supply chain availability, procurement timelines, and inventory management requirements. No electrical or mechanical performance differentiation exists between the two options.
