RC1005F1622CS Equivalent & Substitute Parts Reference

Part Overview

The RC1005F1622CS is a 16.2 kOhms ±1% thick film chip resistor manufactured by Samsung Electro-Mechanics in 0402 (1005 Metric) package format. This surface mount device (SMD) is rated at 0.063W (1/16W) power dissipation and operates across the temperature range of -55°C to 155°C. The component features moisture-resistant construction and is ROHS3 compliant with MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating.

Equivalent and substitute parts are necessary when the primary manufacturer part becomes unavailable, when supply chain optimization is required, or when design specifications allow for alternative qualified sources meeting identical electrical and mechanical parameters.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RC1005F1622CS is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Resistance value: 16.2 kOhms
• Tolerance: ±1%
• Package / Case: 0402 (1005 Metric)
• Composition: Thick Film
• Temperature Coefficient: ±100ppm/°C
• Operating Temperature Range: -55°C ~ 155°C
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited)
• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant

Allowable Variation:

• Power Rating: Substitute parts may equal or exceed 0.063W (1/16W)
• Packaging Format: Both Tape & Reel (TR) and Cut Tape (CT) & Digi-Reel® formats are acceptable
• Height - Seated (Max): Variation within 0.015" to 0.016" (0.37mm to 0.40mm) is acceptable
• Additional Features: Automotive AEC-Q200 qualification is an enhancement and does not disqualify substitution

Substitute parts are grouped into three categories based on their relationship to the main part specifications:

Direct Equivalents: Parts matching all parameters including power rating and standard features.

Upgrade Parts: Parts exceeding power rating specifications while maintaining all other parameters.

Similar Parts: Parts with enhanced features (such as AEC-Q200 automotive qualification) while maintaining core electrical and mechanical specifications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Direct Equivalent Selection:

CR0402-FX-1622GLF (Bourns Inc.) and RC0402FR-0716K2L (YAGEO) are direct electrical and mechanical equivalents to the RC1005F1622CS. Both parts maintain identical resistance, tolerance, power rating, package dimensions, and temperature specifications. Both are ROHS3 compliant with MSL 1 rating. CR0402-FX-1622GLF does not include moisture-resistant features, while RC0402FR-0716K2L includes moisture-resistant construction matching the original part specification.

Upgrade Selection:

ERJ-2RKF1622X (Panasonic Electronic Components) provides an upgrade path with increased power rating of 0.1W (1/10W) versus the original 0.063W (1/16W). This part includes Automotive AEC-Q200 qualification and maintains all other electrical and mechanical parameters. The upgrade is suitable for applications requiring enhanced thermal performance or automotive-grade reliability.

Enhanced Feature Selection:

AC0402FR-0716K2L (YAGEO), CRCW040216K2FKED (Vishay Dale), and RMCF0402FT16K2 (Stackpole Electronics Inc) are qualified to Automotive AEC-Q200 standards while maintaining the original power rating and all core specifications. AC0402FR-0716K2L additionally includes moisture-resistant construction. These parts are suitable for applications requiring automotive-grade component qualification without power rating modification.

All substitute parts listed maintain active product status and full ROHS3 compliance with MSL 1 moisture sensitivity rating.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can CR0402-FX-1622GLF replace RC1005F1622CS in all applications?

A: CR0402-FX-1622GLF is electrically and mechanically equivalent to RC1005F1622CS. The primary difference is the absence of moisture-resistant features in the Bourns part. Applications requiring moisture-resistant construction should use RC0402FR-0716K2L (YAGEO) instead.

Q: What is the difference between the main part and ERJ-2RKF1622X?

A: ERJ-2RKF1622X has a higher power rating of 0.1W (1/10W) compared to the original 0.063W (1/16W). All other electrical parameters, package dimensions, and temperature specifications are identical. ERJ-2RKF1622X includes Automotive AEC-Q200 qualification.

Q: Are automotive-qualified parts (AEC-Q200) compatible with non-automotive applications?

A: Yes. Automotive AEC-Q200 qualified parts meet or exceed the specifications of standard industrial-grade parts. AC0402FR-0716K2L, CRCW040216K2FKED, and RMCF0402FT16K2 are suitable for both automotive and non-automotive applications.

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

A: MSL 1 (Unlimited) indicates that the component has unlimited shelf life and does not require special moisture control during storage or handling. All listed substitute parts carry this rating.

Q: Can I use parts with different packaging formats (Tape & Reel vs. Cut Tape)?

A: Yes. Both Tape & Reel (TR) and Cut Tape (CT) & Digi-Reel® formats contain identical components. Format selection depends on assembly equipment compatibility and procurement requirements, not electrical or mechanical performance.

Q: Is the height difference between 0.015" and 0.016" significant?

A: The height variation of 0.001" (0.03mm) between AC0402FR-0716K2L (0.015" / 0.37mm) and other parts (0.016" / 0.40mm) is within standard PCB assembly tolerances and does not affect functionality or compatibility.

Q: Are all substitute parts ROHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. All listed substitute parts are ROHS3 compliant and carry identical REACH Unaffected status as the original RC1005F1622CS.

Q: Which substitute part should I select for maximum supply availability?

A: RC0402FR-0716K2L (YAGEO) has the highest inventory level at 88,575 pieces. This part is a direct equivalent with moisture-resistant construction matching the original specification.
