Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RC1005F8253CS is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Primary Substitution Criteria:

• Resistance value: 825 kOhms (exact match required)
• Tolerance: ±1% (exact match required)
• Package / Case: 0402 (1005 Metric) (exact match required)
• Composition: Thick Film (exact match required)
• Temperature Coefficient: ±100ppm/°C (exact match required)
• Operating Temperature Range: -55°C to 155°C (exact match required)
• Termination count: 2 (exact match required)
• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant (exact match required)
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited) (exact match required)

Secondary Considerations:

• Power rating: Substitutes rated at 0.063W (1/16W) are direct equivalents; substitutes rated at 0.1W (1/10W) are upgrades with enhanced thermal capability
• Automotive qualification (AEC-Q200): Indicates enhanced reliability screening; not required for general industrial applications
• Packaging format (Cut Tape vs. Tape & Reel): Affects procurement and assembly logistics but does not impact electrical or mechanical compatibility

All identified substitutes meet the primary criteria. Upgrade and similar classifications reflect secondary parameter variations that maintain full functional compatibility.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Direct Equivalents (Identical Electrical and Mechanical Specifications):

CR0402-FX-8253GLF (Bourns Inc.) and RC0402FR-07825KL (YAGEO) are direct functional equivalents to the RC1005F8253CS. Both maintain identical resistance, tolerance, power rating, package dimensions, and temperature characteristics. Selection between these options is based on packaging preference (Tape & Reel vs. Cut Tape) and inventory availability. Both are ROHS3 compliant with MSL 1 rating.

Upgrade Option (Enhanced Power Rating):

ERJ-2RKF8253X (Panasonic Electronic Components) provides an upgrade path with 0.1W (1/10W) power rating compared to the 0.063W (1/16W) baseline. This higher power rating accommodates applications with increased thermal stress while maintaining all other electrical parameters. The ERJ-2RKF8253X carries AEC-Q200 automotive qualification, indicating enhanced reliability screening suitable for automotive and mission-critical applications. This part is fully backward compatible in circuits designed for the lower power rating.

Similar Parts with Automotive Qualification:

CRCW0402825KFKED (Vishay Dale) and RMCF0402FT825K (Stackpole Electronics Inc.) are functionally equivalent to the RC1005F8253CS with the addition of AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. Both maintain the 0.063W power rating and all other baseline specifications. These parts are suitable for applications requiring automotive-grade reliability screening or for designs targeting automotive supply chains.

Selection Basis:

All substitute parts maintain Active product status and ROHS3 compliance. Selection should be based on: (1) packaging format requirements for assembly processes, (2) automotive qualification necessity for end-application requirements, (3) power rating adequacy for circuit thermal conditions, and (4) inventory and lead-time availability from component suppliers.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can CR0402-FX-8253GLF replace RC1005F8253CS in existing designs?

A: Yes. CR0402-FX-8253GLF is a direct equivalent with identical electrical specifications (825 kOhms ±1%, 0.063W, ±100ppm/°C) and mechanical package (0402 / 1005 Metric). The only difference is packaging format (Tape & Reel vs. Cut Tape), which affects procurement and assembly logistics but not circuit performance.

Q: What is the difference between the 0.063W and 0.1W power ratings?

A: The 0.063W (1/16W) rating is the baseline specification for RC1005F8253CS. The 0.1W (1/10W) rating on ERJ-2RKF8253X provides higher thermal capability, allowing the resistor to dissipate more power without exceeding temperature limits. In circuits operating below 0.063W, both ratings are functionally equivalent. The 0.1W option is suitable for applications with higher power dissipation or thermal stress.

Q: Are AEC-Q200 qualified parts necessary for non-automotive applications?

A: No. AEC-Q200 qualification indicates enhanced reliability screening and is not required for general industrial or consumer applications. CRCW0402825KFKED, RMCF0402FT825K, and ERJ-2RKF8253X with AEC-Q200 rating are suitable for any application where the baseline RC1005F8253CS is specified, but the automotive qualification adds cost without benefit in non-automotive designs.

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

A: No. Packaging format affects only procurement, storage, and assembly processes. Cut Tape (CT) and Tape & Reel (TR) formats contain identical components with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Selection is based on assembly equipment compatibility and supply chain preferences.

Q: Are all substitute parts ROHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. All identified substitutes (CR0402-FX-8253GLF, RC0402FR-07825KL, ERJ-2RKF8253X, CRCW0402825KFKED, RMCF0402FT825K) are ROHS3 compliant with MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating, matching the baseline RC1005F8253CS specification.

Q: Can I use YAGEO RC0402FR-07825KL if the original design specifies Samsung RC1005F8253CS?

A: Yes. RC0402FR-07825KL is a direct equivalent with identical resistance (825 kOhms ±1%), power rating (0.063W), package (0402), temperature range (-55°C to 155°C), and moisture resistant construction. Both are ROHS3 compliant. The substitution is electrically and mechanically transparent to circuit design.

Q: What is the significance of the ±100ppm/°C temperature coefficient?

A: The ±100ppm/°C temperature coefficient specifies the maximum resistance change per degree Celsius across the operating temperature range. All substitute parts maintain this identical specification, ensuring equivalent temperature stability and predictable circuit behavior across the -55°C to 155°C operating range.
