Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the RC1005F8250CS are classified based on electrical and mechanical parameter alignment. All identified substitutes maintain the core electrical specifications: 825 Ohm resistance value, ±1% tolerance, thick film composition, ±100ppm/°C temperature coefficient, and -55°C to 155°C operating temperature range. All substitutes are packaged in the 0402 (1005 Metric) form factor with identical physical dimensions and two terminations, ensuring direct mechanical and electrical compatibility on printed circuit boards.

Substitutes are further differentiated by the following criteria:

Direct Equivalents maintain identical power ratings (0.063W / 1/16W), packaging format (Cut Tape or Tape & Reel), and moisture resistant features where applicable.

Upgrade Substitutes provide enhanced power ratings (0.1W / 1/10W) while maintaining all other electrical parameters, suitable for applications requiring higher thermal headroom.

Automotive-Qualified Substitutes include AEC-Q200 certification in addition to base electrical specifications, appropriate for automotive and high-reliability applications.

Compliance Variants differ in RoHS and REACH status while maintaining electrical and mechanical compatibility.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For Standard Applications with ROHS3 Compliance Requirements:

CR0402-FX-8250GLF (Bourns Inc.) and RC0402FR-07825RL (YAGEO) are direct electrical equivalents to the RC1005F8250CS. Both maintain identical electrical specifications and ROHS3 compliance. Selection between these options is determined by packaging preference (Tape & Reel versus Cut Tape & Digi-Reel) and inventory availability.

For Automotive and High-Reliability Applications:

ERJ-2RKF8250X (Panasonic Electronic Components), AC0402FR-07825RL (YAGEO), CRCW0402825RFKED (Vishay Dale), and RMCF0402FT825R (Stackpole Electronics Inc) are qualified to AEC-Q200 automotive standards. These parts are suitable for applications requiring automotive-grade component certification. ERJ-2RKF8250X provides an upgrade option with 0.1W power rating while maintaining AEC-Q200 qualification.

For Applications Requiring Enhanced Power Dissipation:

ERJ-2RKF8250X (Panasonic Electronic Components) offers 0.1W (1/10W) power rating compared to the standard 0.063W (1/16W) rating of the RC1005F8250CS. This upgrade maintains all other electrical parameters and AEC-Q200 automotive qualification.

Compliance Considerations:

CRCW0402825RFKTD (Vishay Dale) is RoHS non-compliant and REACH affected. This part is suitable only for applications where RoHS3 compliance is not required. CRCW0402825RFKED (Vishay Dale) is the RoHS3-compliant variant of the same series.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can all listed substitute parts be used interchangeably with the RC1005F8250CS on the same printed circuit board?

A: All substitute parts share identical package dimensions (0402 / 1005 Metric), physical footprint, and electrical specifications (825 Ohms ±1%, ±100ppm/°C temperature coefficient, -55°C to 155°C operating range). Direct mechanical and electrical substitution is supported without circuit board redesign. Compliance requirements (RoHS3, REACH, AEC-Q200) must be verified against application specifications.

Q: What is the difference between the CR0402-FX-8250GLF and RC0402FR-07825RL substitutes?

A: Both parts are direct electrical equivalents with identical resistance, tolerance, power rating, and operating temperature range. The primary difference is packaging format: CR0402-FX-8250GLF is supplied in Tape & Reel format, while RC0402FR-07825RL is available in Cut Tape and Digi-Reel formats. The RC0402FR-07825RL includes moisture resistant features matching the original RC1005F8250CS specification.

Q: When should the ERJ-2RKF8250X upgrade substitute be selected?

A: The ERJ-2RKF8250X is selected when applications require higher power dissipation capability. This part provides 0.1W (1/10W) power rating compared to the standard 0.063W (1/16W) rating while maintaining all other electrical parameters and AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. Physical dimensions and package footprint remain identical.

Q: Are automotive-qualified substitutes required for all applications?

A: Automotive-qualified substitutes (ERJ-2RKF8250X, AC0402FR-07825RL, CRCW0402825RFKED, RMCF0402FT825R) are required only for applications subject to automotive standards or high-reliability specifications. Standard applications may use non-automotive-qualified equivalents such as CR0402-FX-8250GLF or RC0402FR-07825RL.

Q: What is the significance of the RoHS and REACH compliance status differences?

A: CRCW0402825RFKTD is RoHS non-compliant and REACH affected, restricting its use to applications where RoHS3 compliance is not mandated. All other listed substitutes maintain ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, suitable for applications with regulatory compliance requirements. Compliance verification against application specifications is required.

Q: Do all substitute parts maintain the moisture resistant feature of the RC1005F8250CS?

A: Moisture resistant features are explicitly specified for RC1005F8250CS, RC0402FR-07825RL, and AC0402FR-07825RL. CR0402-FX-8250GLF does not specify moisture resistant features. All parts maintain MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity level rating. Application requirements for moisture resistance must be evaluated against specific part specifications.

Q: Is the physical height difference between AC0402FR-07825RL (0.015" max) and other substitutes (0.016" max) significant?

A: The AC0402FR-07825RL maximum seated height is 0.015" compared to 0.016" for other substitutes. This 0.001" (0.01mm) difference is within typical PCB assembly tolerances and does not affect mechanical compatibility or assembly processes for standard applications.
