RC0402J223CS Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The RC0402J223CS is a 22 kOhms ±5% chip resistor manufactured by Samsung Electro-Mechanics, rated at 0.03W (1/32W) power dissipation in the 01005 (0402 Metric) package. This moisture-resistant thick film resistor operates across the temperature range of -55°C to 125°C and maintains ROHS3 compliance with MSL 1 rating. The part is currently in active production status with 1076 units available in inventory. Equivalent and substitute parts are identified to support procurement flexibility, design optimization, and supply chain continuity when the primary part becomes unavailable or when design specifications permit tolerance adjustments.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the RC0402J223CS is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Resistance value: 22 kOhms (exact match required)
• Package type: 01005 (0402 Metric) (physical and electrical compatibility)
• Power rating: 0.03W minimum (1/32W)
• Temperature coefficient: ±250ppm/°C (thermal stability)
• Operating temperature range: -55°C to 125°C minimum (environmental compatibility)
• Composition: Thick Film (electrical characteristics)
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (handling and storage compatibility)
• RoHS compliance: ROHS3 (regulatory requirement)

Allowable Variation Parameters:

• Tolerance: May be tighter (lower value) than ±5% without circuit impact, as tighter tolerance represents improved accuracy
• Moisture resistance features: May differ in specific implementation details

The CRCW010022K0FREL from Vishay Dale qualifies as a substitute because it maintains all mandatory parameters while offering improved tolerance specification (±1% versus ±5%).

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Part Selection (RC0402J223CS): Select the RC0402J223CS when Samsung Electro-Mechanics supply is available and ±5% tolerance meets circuit requirements. This part maintains active production status and carries full ROHS3 and REACH compliance certifications.

Substitute Part Selection (CRCW010022K0FREL): The CRCW010022K0FREL from Vishay Dale is a direct substitute when the primary part is unavailable. This part offers superior tolerance specification (±1% versus ±5%), which provides enhanced circuit accuracy without introducing any compatibility issues. Both parts share identical package dimensions, thermal characteristics, and regulatory compliance status. The substitute part is suitable for applications where tighter tolerance improves performance or where supply chain continuity requires alternative sourcing.

Compliance Verification: Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance, MSL 1 rating, and REACH unaffected status, ensuring regulatory compatibility across all applications. The identical HTSUS classification (8533.21.0030) and EAR99 ECCN designation confirm equivalent trade and export compliance.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the CRCW010022K0FREL replace the RC0402J223CS in existing designs?

A: Yes. The CRCW010022K0FREL is a direct substitute. Both parts share identical resistance value (22 kOhms), package type (01005/0402 Metric), power rating (0.03W), temperature range (-55°C to 125°C), and thermal coefficient (±250ppm/°C). The substitute part offers tighter tolerance (±1% versus ±5%), which represents an improvement in accuracy.

Q: Are there physical compatibility concerns with the substitute part?

A: No. Both parts have identical dimensions (0.016" L x 0.008" W / 0.40mm x 0.20mm) and maximum seated height (0.006" / 0.15mm). The 01005 (0402 Metric) package is identical, ensuring PCB footprint and assembly compatibility without modification.

Q: What is the difference in tolerance between these parts?

A: The RC0402J223CS carries ±5% tolerance, while the CRCW010022K0FREL carries ±1% tolerance. Tighter tolerance means the substitute part maintains resistance value within a narrower range around the nominal 22 kOhms specification. This does not create compatibility issues; it improves circuit accuracy.

Q: Do both parts have the same moisture sensitivity rating?

A: Yes. Both parts carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) rating, indicating identical moisture sensitivity classification and identical handling, storage, and reflow requirements.

Q: Are regulatory and compliance certifications equivalent?

A: Yes. Both parts are ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and carry EAR99 ECCN designation. They share the same HTSUS code (8533.21.0030), confirming equivalent regulatory and trade compliance status.

Q: What is the temperature coefficient specification, and is it identical?

A: Both parts specify ±250ppm/°C temperature coefficient, indicating identical thermal stability across the -55°C to 125°C operating range. This ensures equivalent performance under temperature variation.

Q: Can these parts be used interchangeably in tape and reel format?

A: Yes. Both parts are supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) packaging format, ensuring compatibility with automated assembly equipment and identical handling procedures.
