Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the MBA02040C3902FRP00 is determined by matching the following critical parameters: resistance value (39 kOhms), tolerance (±1%), power rating (0.4W), composition (metal film), package type (axial), operating temperature range (-55°C to 155°C), and compliance certifications (ROHS3, REACH Unaffected, EAR99). Substitute parts are grouped into two categories:

Parametric Equivalents (Same Series): MBA02040C3902FCT00 and MBA02040C3902FC100 maintain identical electrical specifications, physical dimensions (0.063" Dia x 0.142" L), temperature coefficient (±50ppm/°C), and automotive AEC-Q200 qualification. These parts differ only in packaging format (Cut Tape versus Tape & Reel).

Manufacturer Recommended Substitute (Alternative Series): SFR2500003902FR500 matches all critical electrical parameters (39 kOhms, ±1%, 0.4W, metal film, -55°C to 155°C) and compliance requirements but operates with a higher temperature coefficient (±100ppm/°C) and larger physical dimensions (0.098" Dia x 0.256" L). This part is supplied in Cut Tape packaging.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For Direct Substitution (Automotive Applications): MBA02040C3902FCT00 and MBA02040C3902FC100 are direct parametric equivalents suitable for applications requiring AEC-Q200 qualification. These parts maintain identical electrical performance and physical dimensions, with substitution limited to packaging format selection based on procurement and assembly requirements.

For Alternative Selection (Non-Automotive or Relaxed Tolerance Applications): SFR2500003902FR500 is suitable when the higher temperature coefficient (±100ppm/°C) and larger physical dimensions are acceptable. This part does not carry AEC-Q200 qualification and is not recommended for automotive applications requiring this certification.

All substitute parts maintain ROHS3 compliance, REACH Unaffected status, and EAR99 classification, ensuring regulatory consistency with the original part.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can MBA02040C3902FCT00 or MBA02040C3902FC100 be used as direct replacements for MBA02040C3902FRP00?

A: Yes. Both parts are parametric equivalents with identical resistance (39 kOhms), tolerance (±1%), power rating (0.4W), temperature coefficient (±50ppm/°C), operating temperature range (-55°C to 155°C), physical dimensions (0.063" Dia x 0.142" L), and AEC-Q200 qualification. The only difference is packaging format (Cut Tape versus Tape & Reel). Selection depends on assembly process requirements.

Q: What are the limitations of SFR2500003902FR500 as a substitute?

A: SFR2500003902FR500 has a higher temperature coefficient (±100ppm/°C compared to ±50ppm/°C) and larger physical dimensions (0.098" Dia x 0.256" L versus 0.063" Dia x 0.142" L). It does not carry AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. Use this part only in applications where these differences are acceptable and automotive certification is not required.

Q: Are all substitute parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. All listed substitute parts (MBA02040C3902FCT00, MBA02040C3902FC100, and SFR2500003902FR500) are ROHS3 compliant and REACH Unaffected, matching the compliance profile of the original MBA02040C3902FRP00.

Q: Does packaging format affect electrical performance?

A: No. Tape & Reel (TR) and Cut Tape (CT) packaging formats do not affect electrical specifications. Selection is based on manufacturing process compatibility and inventory management requirements.

Q: Can SFR2500003902FR500 be used in automotive applications?

A: SFR2500003902FR500 is not qualified to AEC-Q200 standards. It is not recommended for automotive applications requiring this certification. Use MBA02040C3902FCT00 or MBA02040C3902FC100 for automotive applications.
