Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility is determined by strict equivalence across the following parameters: resistance value (82.5 Ohms), tolerance (±1%), power rating (0.1W), package type (0603), composition (thick film), temperature coefficient (±100ppm/°C), and operating temperature range (-55°C to 155°C). All substitute parts listed meet these core electrical and mechanical specifications.

Parts are categorized as follows:

Direct Substitutes (Full AEC-Q200 Automotive Rating): CRCW060382R5FKEA (Vishay Dale), ERJ-3EKF82R5V (Panasonic Electronic Components), and RMCF0603FT82R5 (Stackpole Electronics Inc). These parts maintain identical electrical parameters and automotive certification.

Similar Substitutes (Moisture Resistant, Non-Automotive Rated): CR0603-FX-82R5ELF (Bourns Inc.) and RC0603FR-0782R5L (YAGEO). These parts match all electrical specifications and package requirements but feature moisture-resistant construction instead of automotive AEC-Q200 certification.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For automotive applications requiring AEC-Q200 compliance, select from the direct substitutes: CRCW060382R5FKEA, ERJ-3EKF82R5V, or RMCF0603FT82R5. All three maintain full automotive certification and are currently in active production with substantial inventory availability.

For non-automotive applications where AEC-Q200 certification is not required, CR0603-FX-82R5ELF and RC0603FR-0782R5L are functionally equivalent alternatives. Both are RoHS3 compliant and feature moisture-resistant construction.

All substitute parts are ROHS3 compliant, MSL 1 rated, and REACH unaffected, matching the compliance profile of the original MCR03EZPFX82R5.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can I use CR0603-FX-82R5ELF or RC0603FR-0782R5L in automotive applications?

A: These parts match all electrical and mechanical specifications but lack AEC-Q200 automotive certification. Use only in non-automotive circuits or where automotive qualification is not a design requirement.

Q: Are all substitute parts pin-compatible with the MCR03EZPFX82R5?

A: Yes. All listed substitutes use the 0603 (1608 Metric) package with two terminations, ensuring mechanical and electrical compatibility on PCBs designed for the original part.

Q: What is the difference between direct and similar substitutes?

A: Direct substitutes (CRCW060382R5FKEA, ERJ-3EKF82R5V, RMCF0603FT82R5) carry AEC-Q200 automotive certification identical to the original part. Similar substitutes (CR0603-FX-82R5ELF, RC0603FR-0782R5L) feature moisture-resistant construction but are not automotive-rated.

Q: Do all substitutes have the same temperature coefficient?

A: Yes. All substitute parts maintain ±100ppm/°C temperature coefficient and -55°C to 155°C operating range, matching the original specification.

Q: Which substitute has the highest inventory availability?

A: RC0603FR-0782R5L (YAGEO) has 729,776 pieces in stock, followed by ERJ-3EKF82R5V (Panasonic) with 208,482 pieces.
