The CRCW0201301KFKED manufactured by Vishay Dale meets all substitution criteria and is classified as a direct equivalent.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the RC0603F3013CS and CRCW0201301KFKED are Active product status components with full RoHS3 compliance and REACH Unaffected certification. Selection between these parts is based on the following criteria:

RC0603F3013CS (Samsung Electro-Mechanics): Select when Samsung supply chain preference, existing inventory management, or established vendor relationships are primary considerations. Current inventory: 678 Pcs.

CRCW0201301KFKED (Vishay Dale): Select when extended operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 155°C versus -55°C ~ 125°C) or superior temperature coefficient performance (±100ppm/°C versus ±250ppm/°C) is required for the application. Current inventory: 27,251 Pcs. This part provides enhanced thermal stability and wider operational envelope.

Both components satisfy identical electrical, mechanical, and compliance requirements for direct substitution in standard circuit applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can CRCW0201301KFKED replace RC0603F3013CS in my circuit?

A: Yes. Both components share identical resistance value (301 kOhms), tolerance (±1%), power rating (0.05W), composition (Thick Film), package (0201), physical dimensions, and compliance certifications (RoHS3, REACH Unaffected, MSL 1). Direct substitution is electrically and mechanically compatible.

Q: What are the differences between these two parts?

A: The primary differences are temperature coefficient (Samsung ±250ppm/°C versus Vishay ±100ppm/°C) and maximum operating temperature (Samsung -55°C ~ 125°C versus Vishay -55°C ~ 155°C). The Vishay part offers superior thermal performance characteristics.

Q: Are the physical dimensions identical?

A: Yes. Both parts are 0.024" L x 0.012" W (0.60mm x 0.30mm) with maximum seated height of 0.010" (0.26mm). They are mechanically interchangeable on PCB layouts designed for 0201 (0603 Metric) package footprints.

Q: Do both parts have the same compliance certifications?

A: Yes. Both RC0603F3013CS and CRCW0201301KFKED are RoHS3 Compliant, REACH Unaffected, and carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating.

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

A: The CRCW0201301KFKED supports operating temperatures up to 155°C, compared to 125°C for the RC0603F3013CS. For applications requiring extended temperature range, the Vishay part is the appropriate selection.

Q: Are both parts available in Tape & Reel packaging?

A: Yes. Both components are supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) packaging format suitable for automated assembly processes.
