Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RC1608F5624CS is determined by strict alignment of the following parameters:

Electrical Parameters (Critical): Resistance value must equal 5.62 MOhms. Tolerance must be ±1%. Power rating must be 0.1W (1/10W). Temperature coefficient must be ±100ppm/°C. Operating temperature range must span -55°C to 155°C minimum.

Mechanical Parameters (Critical): Package designation must be 0603 (1608 Metric). Physical dimensions must not exceed 0.063" L x 0.031" W (1.60mm x 0.80mm) length and width. Height seated maximum must not exceed 0.022" (0.55mm). Number of terminations must be 2.

Material & Construction (Critical): Composition must be Thick Film. Moisture-resistant construction required.

Compliance & Environmental (Required): RoHS3 compliance mandatory. Moisture Sensitivity Level must be 1 (Unlimited). REACH Unaffected status required.

Packaging: Tape & Reel (TR) packaging format.

Two substitute parts meet these criteria: RC0603FR-075M62L (YAGEO) and CRCW06035M62FKEA (Vishay Dale).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

RC0603FR-075M62L (YAGEO): This substitute maintains identical electrical and mechanical specifications to the RC1608F5624CS. YAGEO RC_L series components carry Active product status with full ROHS3 and REACH compliance. Inventory availability is 30,880 pieces. This part is suitable for direct substitution in applications where moisture-resistant thick film construction and standard industrial temperature range operation are required.

CRCW06035M62FKEA (Vishay Dale): This substitute meets all electrical and environmental specifications of the RC1608F5624CS with the addition of AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. Vishay Dale CRCW series components carry Active product status with full ROHS3 and REACH compliance. Inventory availability is 28,410 pieces. Physical dimensions are 0.061" L x 0.033" W (1.55mm x 0.85mm) with maximum seated height of 0.020" (0.50mm), representing minor dimensional variation within the 0603 package tolerance envelope. This part is suitable for direct substitution in applications requiring automotive-grade reliability or where AEC-Q200 certification is specified.

Both substitute parts are qualified for direct replacement based on matching electrical parameters, package compatibility, and regulatory compliance status.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RC0603FR-075M62L replace RC1608F5624CS in any application?

A: RC0603FR-075M62L is a direct electrical and mechanical equivalent. Both components share identical resistance value (5.62 MOhms), tolerance (±1%), power rating (0.1W), temperature coefficient (±100ppm/°C), operating temperature range (-55°C to 155°C), and 0603 package designation. Substitution is valid for applications where moisture-resistant thick film construction and standard industrial compliance are required.

Q: What is the difference between RC0603FR-075M62L and CRCW06035M62FKEA?

A: Both parts meet the electrical specifications of the RC1608F5624CS. The primary distinction is that CRCW06035M62FKEA carries AEC-Q200 automotive qualification, making it suitable for automotive applications. Physical dimensions show minor variation: CRCW06035M62FKEA measures 0.061" L x 0.033" W (1.55mm x 0.85mm) versus the standard 0603 dimension of 0.063" L x 0.031" W (1.60mm x 0.80mm). Both remain within 0603 package tolerance specifications.

Q: Are all three parts ROHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. RC1608F5624CS, RC0603FR-075M62L, and CRCW06035M62FKEA all carry ROHS3 Compliant status and REACH Unaffected designation.

Q: What is the Moisture Sensitivity Level for these components?

A: All three parts are rated MSL 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions and no baking requirement prior to soldering.

Q: Can CRCW06035M62FKEA be used in non-automotive applications?

A: Yes. CRCW06035M62FKEA meets all electrical and environmental specifications required for the RC1608F5624CS. AEC-Q200 certification represents an additional qualification level and does not restrict use in standard industrial applications.

Q: Are there inventory considerations for substitution?

A: RC1608F5624CS has 937 pieces in stock. RC0603FR-075M62L has 30,880 pieces available. CRCW06035M62FKEA has 28,410 pieces available. Substitute parts offer significantly higher inventory levels for applications requiring larger quantities or extended supply assurance.
