Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three part numbers are manufactured by Vishay Beyschlag/Draloric/BC Components and maintain active production status. Selection between MBA02040C2002FCT00, MBA02040C2002FC100, and MRS16000C2002FCT00 is determined by availability and supply chain requirements.

MBA02040C2002FCT00 is the primary specification with automotive AEC-Q200 qualification explicitly stated. This designation confirms suitability for automotive applications requiring enhanced reliability standards.

MBA02040C2002FC100 is a parametric equivalent within the same MBA/SMA 0204 Professional series, also carrying AEC-Q200 qualification. This part provides direct substitution with identical electrical and mechanical characteristics.

MRS16000C2002FCT00 belongs to the MRS16 series and provides parametric equivalence without explicit AEC-Q200 designation in the provided data. This part maintains all critical electrical and mechanical parameters and is ROHS3 compliant with the highest inventory availability at 8,623 units.

All three parts satisfy ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, meeting regulatory requirements for electronic component applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can MBA02040C2002FC100 be used as a direct replacement for MBA02040C2002FCT00?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical parameters (20 kOhms ±1%, 0.4W, ±50ppm/°C), mechanical dimensions (0.063" Dia x 0.142" L), and composition (metal film axial). Both are AEC-Q200 qualified and ROHS3 compliant. The parts are interchangeable in circuit design.

Q: What is the difference between MBA02040C2002FCT00 and MRS16000C2002FCT00?

A: The parts differ in series designation (MBA/SMA 0204 Professional versus MRS16) but maintain identical electrical specifications and physical dimensions. Both are metal film axial resistors rated 20 kOhms ±1% at 0.4W with ±50ppm/°C temperature coefficient and -55°C to 155°C operating range. The MRS16000C2002FCT00 has higher inventory availability.

Q: Are all three parts suitable for automotive applications?

A: MBA02040C2002FCT00 and MBA02040C2002FC100 carry explicit AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. MRS16000C2002FCT00 meets all electrical and mechanical requirements for automotive use but does not have AEC-Q200 designation stated in the provided specifications. Confirm AEC-Q200 status with the manufacturer if automotive qualification is a design requirement.

Q: Do these parts require different PCB footprints?

A: No. All three parts are axial package resistors with identical dimensions (0.063" Dia x 0.142" L / 1.60mm x 3.60mm) and two terminations. PCB footprints are identical.

Q: What compliance certifications apply to all substitute parts?

A: All three parts are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected. They meet regulatory requirements for electronic component use in regulated markets.
