Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RC0603F471CS is determined by strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

Electrical Specifications: Resistance value (470 Ohms), tolerance (±1%), and power rating (0.05W) must be identical. Thick film composition ensures consistent electrical behavior across temperature ranges.

Mechanical Compatibility: Package designation (0201 / 0603 Metric), physical dimensions (0.024" L x 0.012" W), and maximum seated height (0.010") must match exactly to ensure PCB footprint compatibility and automated assembly processing.

Compliance & Environmental: RoHS3 compliance and MSL 1 rating are mandatory for equivalent substitution. Both the main part and substitute must meet these certifications for unrestricted use in regulated applications.

Packaging Format: Tape & Reel (TR) packaging is standard for both components, supporting high-volume manufacturing processes.

The CRCW0201470RFKED from Vishay Dale meets all substitution criteria for the RC0603F471CS.
