RC0603F134CS Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The RC0603F134CS is a 130 kOhms ±1% thick film chip resistor manufactured by Samsung Electro-Mechanics, rated at 0.05W (1/20W) in a 0201 (0603 Metric) surface mount package. This component is classified as Active product status and is designed for applications requiring precision resistive elements with moisture resistance in compact form factors. Substitute parts are identified to provide alternative sourcing options when the primary manufacturer part becomes unavailable or when supply chain optimization is required.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the RC0603F134CS is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Electrical Parameters (Must Match Exactly):

Resistance value: 130 kOhms
Tolerance: ±1%
Power rating: 0.05W (1/20W)
Composition: Thick Film

Mechanical Parameters (Must Match Exactly):

Package / Case: 0201 (0603 Metric)
Size / Dimension: 0.024" L x 0.012" W (0.60mm x 0.30mm)
Height - Seated (Max): 0.010" (0.26mm)
Number of Terminations: 2

Compliance Parameters (Must Match or Exceed):

RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant
Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL): 1 (Unlimited)

The CRCW0201130KFKED manufactured by Vishay Dale meets all mandatory electrical and mechanical parameters. Variations in temperature coefficient and operating temperature range do not disqualify substitution when the primary part is unavailable, as these parameters remain within acceptable operational bounds for the 0201 thick film resistor category.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can CRCW0201130KFKED be used as a direct replacement for RC0603F134CS?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical specifications (130 kOhms ±1%, 0.05W), identical mechanical dimensions (0201 package, 0.024" L x 0.012" W), and identical compliance certifications (ROHS3, REACH Unaffected). Direct PCB substitution is permissible without design modification.

Q: What are the differences between these two parts?

A: The primary differences are: (1) Temperature Coefficient: RC0603F134CS operates at ±250ppm/°C while CRCW0201130KFKED operates at ±100ppm/°C; (2) Operating Temperature Range: RC0603F134CS operates from -55°C to 125°C while CRCW0201130KFKED operates from -55°C to 155°C. The Vishay part offers superior temperature stability and extended high-temperature capability.

Q: Are there any packaging differences?

A: No. Both parts are supplied in 0201 (0603 Metric) surface mount packages with identical physical dimensions and termination configuration. Both are available in Tape & Reel (TR) packaging format.

Q: Which part should I select for high-temperature applications?

A: For applications requiring operation above 125°C, the CRCW0201130KFKED is suitable up to 155°C. The RC0603F134CS is limited to 125°C maximum operating temperature.
