Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For Direct Replacement (Identical Specifications): RC0402FR-07107KL (YAGEO) serves as the primary direct equivalent. This part maintains all electrical and mechanical parameters of the RC1005F1073CS while offering availability in both Cut Tape and Digi-Reel® packaging formats. Both parts are ROHS3 compliant and carry MSL 1 rating.

For Enhanced Reliability in Automotive Applications: ERJ-2RKF1073X (Panasonic Electronic Components) provides an upgrade path with increased power rating (0.1W vs. 0.063W) and automotive AEC-Q200 qualification. This part is suitable for designs requiring automotive-grade components while maintaining all other critical parameters.

For Automotive-Grade Standard Specifications: AC0402FR-07107KL (YAGEO), CRCW0402107KFKED (Vishay Dale), and RMCF0402FT107K (Stackpole Electronics Inc) are suitable alternatives when automotive AEC-Q200 certification is required without power rating enhancement. All three parts maintain the 0.063W power rating and meet ROHS3 compliance.

Selection Basis:

• All substitute parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 rating
• All parts operate within the -55°C to 155°C temperature range
• All parts feature ±100ppm/°C temperature coefficient
• Packaging format selection (Cut Tape vs. Tape & Reel) depends on assembly process requirements
• Automotive AEC-Q200 certification is available across multiple manufacturers for enhanced supply chain flexibility

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RC0402FR-07107KL be used as a direct replacement for RC1005F1073CS?

A: Yes. RC0402FR-07107KL is a direct equivalent. Both parts share identical resistance (107 kOhms), tolerance (±1%), power rating (0.063W), package (0402), composition (thick film), temperature coefficient (±100ppm/°C), operating range (-55°C to 155°C), and compliance ratings (ROHS3, MSL 1). The primary difference is packaging format availability.

Q: What is the advantage of ERJ-2RKF1073X over the original RC1005F1073CS?

A: ERJ-2RKF1073X provides enhanced power dissipation capability at 0.1W (1/10W) compared to the 0.063W (1/16W) rating of RC1005F1073CS. Additionally, ERJ-2RKF1073X carries automotive AEC-Q200 qualification. All other electrical parameters remain identical. This upgrade is beneficial for applications requiring automotive-grade components or higher thermal margin.

Q: Are the automotive AEC-Q200 qualified parts (AC0402FR-07107KL, CRCW0402107KFKED, RMCF0402FT107K) interchangeable with the original RC1005F1073CS?

A: Yes, these parts are interchangeable from an electrical and mechanical standpoint. All maintain the 107 kOhms ±1% specification, 0.063W power rating, 0402 package, and -55°C to 155°C operating range. The addition of AEC-Q200 certification represents an enhancement rather than a deviation from the original specification.

Q: Does packaging format (Cut Tape vs. Tape & Reel) affect electrical performance?

A: No. Packaging format affects only the physical delivery and handling method. Electrical and mechanical specifications remain identical regardless of whether the part is supplied in Cut Tape (CT), Digi-Reel®, or Tape & Reel (TR) format. Selection should be based on assembly equipment compatibility and process requirements.

Q: Can I substitute a part with higher power rating (ERJ-2RKF1073X at 0.1W) in a circuit designed for 0.063W?

A: Yes. A higher power rating provides additional thermal margin and does not compromise circuit function. The 0.1W rated ERJ-2RKF1073X will perform identically to the 0.063W RC1005F1073CS in any circuit application. The higher rating simply indicates greater thermal capability.

Q: What is the significance of MSL 1 (Unlimited) rating?

A: MSL 1 indicates the component has unlimited shelf life and requires no special moisture control during storage or handling. This rating applies to all listed parts and eliminates moisture sensitivity concerns during manufacturing and assembly processes.

Q: Are all substitute parts ROHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. All substitute parts listed (RC0402FR-07107KL, ERJ-2RKF1073X, AC0402FR-07107KL, CRCW0402107KFKED, RMCF0402FT107K) are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, matching the compliance status of the original RC1005F1073CS.

Q: What is the height difference between AC0402FR-07107KL (0.015") and other substitutes (0.016")?

A: The height difference of 0.001" (0.03mm) is within acceptable mechanical tolerance for 0402 package components. This minor variation does not affect PCB assembly, component placement, or circuit performance. Both heights are within standard 0402 package specifications.
