Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the MBA02040C1203FRP00 are classified based on the following substitution criteria:

MFR Recommended Substitute (SFR2500001203FR500): This part maintains identical electrical specifications (120 kOhms, ±1%, 0.4W, metal film composition) and operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 155°C). The primary difference is packaging format (Cut Tape versus Tape & Reel) and temperature coefficient (±100ppm/°C versus ±50ppm/°C). This substitute is suitable when packaging flexibility is required and the higher temperature coefficient is acceptable for the application.

Parametric Equivalent (MBA02040C1203FC100): This part is from the same MBA/SMA 0204 Professional series and provides identical electrical and thermal specifications, including the ±50ppm/°C temperature coefficient and AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. The only difference is packaging format (Cut Tape versus Tape & Reel). This substitute is recommended for direct replacement when tape format is preferred.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For automotive applications requiring AEC-Q200 qualification: Select MBA02040C1203FC100 as the primary substitute. This part maintains identical specifications including the ±50ppm/°C temperature coefficient and AEC-Q200 automotive qualification, differing only in packaging format (Cut Tape).

For applications where temperature coefficient tolerance is not critical: SFR2500001203FR500 is acceptable as a substitute. While the ±100ppm/°C temperature coefficient is twice that of the main part, all other electrical and thermal parameters remain equivalent. This part is suitable for general-purpose applications where the higher temperature coefficient does not impact circuit performance.

Compliance considerations: All three parts are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current environmental and regulatory requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can SFR2500001203FR500 be used as a direct replacement for MBA02040C1203FRP00?

A: Yes, with application-specific considerations. Both parts provide 120 kOhms ±1% at 0.4W with identical operating temperature range. The SFR2500001203FR500 has a higher temperature coefficient (±100ppm/°C versus ±50ppm/°C) and lacks AEC-Q200 qualification. For non-automotive applications where temperature stability is not critical, this substitute is functionally equivalent.

Q: What is the difference between Tape & Reel and Cut Tape packaging?

A: Tape & Reel (TR) packaging is supplied on continuous tape wound on reels, suitable for high-volume automated assembly. Cut Tape (CT) packaging is supplied as individual tape segments, suitable for lower-volume applications or manual assembly. Both formats contain identical components; the difference is in supply format only.

Q: Is MBA02040C1203FC100 a complete equivalent to the main part?

A: Yes. MBA02040C1203FC100 is a parametric equivalent with identical electrical specifications, temperature coefficient (±50ppm/°C), AEC-Q200 automotive qualification, and operating temperature range. The only difference is packaging format (Cut Tape versus Tape & Reel).

Q: Which substitute should be selected for automotive applications?

A: MBA02040C1203FC100 is the recommended substitute for automotive applications. It maintains AEC-Q200 qualification and identical thermal characteristics, ensuring compliance with automotive reliability standards.

Q: Are all three parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. All three parts—MBA02040C1203FRP00, SFR2500001203FR500, and MBA02040C1203FC100—are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected.
