Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For Direct Replacement (Identical Specifications):

CR0402-FX-3602GLF, CRG0402F36K, and RC0402FR-0736KL are direct electrical and mechanical equivalents to RC1005F363CS. All maintain 36 kOhms ±1% resistance, 0.063W power rating, 0402 package format, and ROHS3 compliance. Selection among these three depends on packaging preference (Cut Tape versus Tape & Reel) and supplier availability. RC0402FR-0736KL and RC1005F363CS both feature moisture-resistant composition.

For Enhanced Power Margin:

ERJ-2RKF3602X provides a higher power rating of 0.1W (1/10W) while maintaining all other electrical parameters. This upgrade substitute is suitable for applications requiring additional thermal headroom. The part includes AEC-Q200 automotive qualification.

For Automotive Applications:

AC0402FR-0736KL, CRCW040236K0FKED, and RMCF0402FT36K0 are qualified to AEC-Q200 automotive standards. These parts are appropriate for automotive-grade designs or applications requiring enhanced reliability documentation. AC0402FR-0736KL additionally includes moisture-resistant features matching the original part.

Compliance Considerations:

All substitute parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating, ensuring compatibility with standard PCB assembly processes and storage requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can CR0402-FX-3602GLF replace RC1005F363CS directly on the PCB?

A: Yes. CR0402-FX-3602GLF is a direct electrical and mechanical equivalent with identical 36 kOhms ±1% resistance, 0.063W power rating, and 0402 package dimensions. The primary difference is packaging format (Tape & Reel versus Cut Tape) and manufacturer, which do not affect PCB assembly or circuit performance.

Q: What is the difference between the main part and ERJ-2RKF3602X?

A: ERJ-2RKF3602X has a higher power rating of 0.1W (1/10W) compared to RC1005F363CS at 0.063W (1/16W). All other electrical specifications remain identical. This upgrade substitute provides additional thermal capacity and includes AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. The 0402 package dimensions are unchanged.

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

A: Yes. AEC-Q200 qualified parts such as AC0402FR-0736KL, CRCW040236K0FKED, and RMCF0402FT36K0 meet or exceed standard commercial specifications. These parts are fully compatible with non-automotive designs and provide enhanced reliability documentation.

Q: Does packaging format (Cut Tape versus Tape & Reel) affect circuit performance?

A: No. Packaging format affects procurement, storage, and assembly logistics only. Electrical and mechanical specifications are identical regardless of packaging type. Selection should be based on manufacturing equipment compatibility and supply chain requirements.

Q: Is moisture resistance a critical parameter for substitution?

A: Moisture resistance is specified for RC1005F363CS and RC0402FR-0736KL. For applications in high-humidity environments or with extended storage requirements, moisture-resistant variants are preferred. However, all substitute parts maintain MSL 1 (Unlimited) rating, indicating compatibility with standard storage and assembly conditions.

Q: Can I use RMCF0402FT36K0 in place of RC1005F363CS?

A: Yes. RMCF0402FT36K0 is a suitable substitute with identical electrical specifications (36 kOhms ±1%, 0.063W) and 0402 package format. The part includes AEC-Q200 automotive qualification, which provides additional reliability assurance. Packaging format is Tape & Reel.

Q: What should I verify before finalizing a substitute part selection?

A: Confirm that the substitute part maintains the required resistance value (36 kOhms), tolerance (±1%), power rating (0.063W minimum), and 0402 package format. Verify RoHS compliance status and MSL rating match application requirements. Confirm supplier availability and lead time for production scheduling.
