Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RC0603F623CS is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Resistance value: 62 kOhms
• Tolerance: ±1%
• Power rating: 0.05W (1/20W)
• Package / Case: 0201 (0603 Metric)
• Composition: Thick Film
• Physical dimensions: 0.024" L x 0.012" W (0.60mm x 0.30mm)
• Number of terminations: 2
• RoHS3 compliance
• MSL rating: 1 (Unlimited)

The CRCW020162K0FKED manufactured by Vishay Dale meets all mandatory matching parameters. Both components share identical electrical specifications (62 kOhms ±1%, 0.05W), identical physical package dimensions (0201), and equivalent compliance certifications (RoHS3, REACH Unaffected, EAR99). Substitution is valid based on these parameter alignments.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

RC0603F623CS (Samsung Electro-Mechanics)

Primary selection criteria: Original equipment manufacturer specification, moisture resistant thick film composition, Active product status with established supply chain. RoHS3 and REACH compliance confirmed. MSL 1 rating permits unlimited shelf life storage without baking requirements.

CRCW020162K0FKED (Vishay Dale)

Alternative selection criteria: Equivalent electrical performance with identical tolerance (±1%) and power rating (0.05W). Identical 0201 package dimensions ensure PCB layout compatibility. RoHS3 and REACH compliance confirmed. Extended operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 155°C) provides broader thermal margin compared to primary part (-55°C ~ 125°C). MSL 1 rating equivalent. Active product status with high inventory availability (16,175 pcs).

Both components satisfy all mandatory substitution parameters. Selection between them is determined by supply availability, lead time requirements, and thermal operating envelope specifications for the target application.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can CRCW020162K0FKED replace RC0603F623CS in all applications?

A: Yes, within the specified operating temperature range of -55°C ~ 125°C. Both components share identical resistance (62 kOhms), tolerance (±1%), power rating (0.05W), package dimensions (0201), and compliance certifications (RoHS3, REACH Unaffected, EAR99). The CRCW020162K0FKED has an extended upper temperature limit (155°C vs. 125°C), which does not restrict substitution in applications operating within the RC0603F623CS range.

Q: What is the difference in temperature coefficient between these parts?

A: RC0603F623CS has a temperature coefficient of ±250ppm/°C, while CRCW020162K0FKED has ±100ppm/°C. The Vishay part exhibits lower temperature-dependent resistance drift. For applications requiring minimal temperature-induced resistance variation, CRCW020162K0FKED provides superior stability.

Q: Are the physical dimensions identical?

A: Yes. Both components are packaged in 0201 (0603 Metric) with dimensions of 0.024" L x 0.012" W (0.60mm x 0.30mm) and maximum seated height of 0.010" (0.26mm). PCB footprints and assembly processes are interchangeable.

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

A: Yes. Both RC0603F623CS and CRCW020162K0FKED carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) classification, indicating no moisture baking requirement prior to soldering and unlimited shelf life storage under standard conditions.

Q: What packaging formats are available for each part?

A: RC0603F623CS is supplied in Cut Tape (CT) format. CRCW020162K0FKED is available in both Cut Tape (CT) and Digi-Reel® formats, with Tape & Reel (TR) as the standard packaging option.

Q: Are both parts RoHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. Both RC0603F623CS and CRCW020162K0FKED are RoHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current environmental and regulatory requirements for electronic component manufacturing and distribution.
