Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility is determined by strict alignment with the following critical parameters:

Electrical Equivalence Requirements:

• Resistance value: 3.6 kOhms
• Tolerance: ±1%
• Temperature coefficient: ±100ppm/°C
• Operating temperature range: -55°C to 155°C minimum

Mechanical & Package Requirements:

• Package type: 0402 (1005 Metric)
• Physical dimensions: 0.039" L x 0.020" W (1.00mm x 0.50mm)
• Number of terminations: 2
• Height seated (maximum): 0.016" to 0.040" (0.40mm maximum acceptable)

Compliance Requirements:

• RoHS3 compliance mandatory
• MSL rating: 1 (Unlimited) or equivalent
• ECCN: EAR99

Substitute parts are categorized as Direct Equivalents, Upgrades, or Similar alternatives based on power rating and additional certifications. Direct equivalents maintain identical 0.063W (1/16W) power rating. Upgrade parts provide enhanced power rating (0.1W) with automotive qualification. Similar parts include automotive AEC-Q200 certification or enhanced moisture resistance features.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Direct Equivalent Selection (Identical Specifications):

CR0402-FX-3601GLF (Bourns Inc.) and CRG0402F3K6 (TE Connectivity Passive Product) provide direct electrical and mechanical equivalence to RC1005F362CS. Both maintain 0.063W power rating, ±1% tolerance, and identical temperature characteristics. Selection between these options depends on packaging preference (Cut Tape & Digi-Reel® versus Tape & Reel) and supply chain availability.

RC0402FR-073K6L (YAGEO) offers direct equivalence with added moisture-resistant feature matching the original part specification. This option is suitable for applications requiring enhanced moisture protection.

Moisture-Resistant Equivalent:

AC0402FR-073K6L (YAGEO) provides direct electrical equivalence with integrated moisture-resistant construction and automotive AEC-Q200 certification. This part is suitable for applications requiring both moisture protection and automotive-grade reliability without power rating upgrade.

Automotive-Grade Alternatives:

CRCW04023K60FKED (Vishay Dale) and RMCF0402FT3K60 (Stackpole Electronics Inc) maintain identical electrical specifications with automotive AEC-Q200 qualification. These parts are appropriate for automotive and industrial applications requiring enhanced reliability standards.

Enhanced Power Rating Option:

ERJ-2RKF3601X (Panasonic Electronic Components) provides upgraded 0.1W (1/10W) power rating with automotive AEC-Q200 certification. This part is suitable for applications where increased power dissipation capability is required within the same package footprint.

All substitute parts maintain ROHS3 compliance, MSL 1 rating, and EAR99 export classification consistent with the original specification.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can CR0402-FX-3601GLF replace RC1005F362CS in all applications?

A: CR0402-FX-3601GLF provides complete electrical and mechanical equivalence. The primary difference is packaging format (Cut Tape & Digi-Reel® versus Tape & Reel). Substitution is valid for all applications where the original part is specified, provided the packaging format is compatible with assembly equipment.

Q: What is the difference between RC0402FR-073K6L and RC1005F362CS?

A: Both parts are manufactured by YAGEO with identical electrical specifications (3.6 kOhms, ±1%, 0.063W). RC0402FR-073K6L includes moisture-resistant construction matching the original part. The primary difference is packaging format (Cut Tape & Digi-Reel® versus Tape & Reel).

Q: When should ERJ-2RKF3601X be selected instead of direct equivalents?

A: ERJ-2RKF3601X is selected when applications require power dissipation exceeding 0.063W but within the 0.1W capability. The automotive AEC-Q200 certification provides enhanced reliability for automotive and industrial environments. The 0402 package footprint remains identical, enabling direct PCB layout compatibility.

Q: Are all substitute parts ROHS3 compliant?

A: All substitute parts listed maintain ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating, consistent with the original RC1005F362CS specification.

Q: What is the significance of AEC-Q200 certification on substitute parts?

A: AEC-Q200 certification indicates automotive-grade qualification with enhanced reliability testing and quality standards. Parts bearing this certification (AC0402FR-073K6L, CRCW04023K60FKED, RMCF0402FT3K60, ERJ-2RKF3601X) are suitable for automotive applications and environments requiring higher reliability assurance.

Q: Can packaging format differences affect substitution?

A: Packaging format (Tape & Reel versus Cut Tape & Digi-Reel®) affects assembly line compatibility and handling procedures but does not impact electrical or mechanical performance. Substitution is valid provided assembly equipment supports the selected packaging format.

Q: What is the maximum seated height tolerance for 0402 package substitutes?

A: The original part specifies maximum seated height of 0.016" (0.40mm). All substitute parts maintain this specification or lower (AC0402FR-073K6L at 0.015" / 0.37mm), ensuring PCB layout and assembly compatibility.
