RC2010FK-07137RL Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The RC2010FK-07137RL is a 137 Ohms ±1% 0.75W chip resistor manufactured by YAGEO in the 2010 (5025 Metric) package format. This thick film resistor features moisture-resistant construction and operates across the temperature range of -55°C to 155°C. The part is currently in active production status with ROHS3 compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity level (MSL 1). Alternative equivalent parts may be required due to supply chain considerations, inventory availability, or application-specific requirements such as automotive qualification.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the RC2010FK-07137RL is based on strict equivalence of the following electrical and mechanical parameters:

• Resistance value: 137 Ohms
• Tolerance: ±1%
• Power rating: 0.75W
• Package format: 2010 (5025 Metric)
• Composition: Thick Film
• Temperature coefficient: ±100ppm/°C
• Operating temperature range: -55°C to 155°C
• Termination count: 2
• RoHS compliance: ROHS3
• MSL rating: 1

The RMCF2010FT137R from Stackpole Electronics Inc meets all these core electrical and mechanical specifications. The primary distinction is the addition of AEC-Q200 automotive qualification in the substitute part, which represents an enhanced reliability standard applicable to automotive applications but does not preclude use in non-automotive contexts.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the RC2010FK-07137RL and RMCF2010FT137R are active production parts with full ROHS3 compliance and identical core electrical specifications. The RMCF2010FT137R carries AEC-Q200 automotive qualification, which indicates enhanced reliability screening and qualification for automotive applications. This qualification does not restrict use in non-automotive applications.

The maximum seated height difference of 0.002" (0.05mm) between the two parts is within typical PCB assembly tolerances and does not present a functional constraint for standard applications. Both parts are suitable for direct substitution in circuits requiring a 137 Ohm ±1% 0.75W thick film resistor in the 2010 package format.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the RMCF2010FT137R replace the RC2010FK-07137RL in all applications?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical specifications (137 Ohms ±1% tolerance, 0.75W power rating, ±100ppm/°C temperature coefficient, -55°C to 155°C operating range) and mechanical dimensions (2010 package, 5.00mm x 2.50mm). The AEC-Q200 qualification of the RMCF2010FT137R represents an additional reliability standard and does not restrict compatibility.

Q: What is the significance of the AEC-Q200 rating on the substitute part?

A: AEC-Q200 is an automotive industry qualification standard that specifies reliability and quality requirements for passive components. Parts meeting this standard have undergone additional screening and testing. This qualification is beneficial for automotive applications but does not preclude use in non-automotive circuits.

Q: Are there dimensional constraints I should consider?

A: The seated height maximum differs by 0.002" (0.05mm), with the RMCF2010FT137R at 0.028" versus the RC2010FK-07137RL at 0.026". This difference is negligible for standard PCB assembly processes and does not affect circuit performance or board layout compatibility.

Q: Do both parts have the same moisture sensitivity level?

A: Yes. Both parts are rated MSL 1 (Unlimited), indicating they have unlimited shelf life under normal storage conditions and do not require special moisture control during handling or storage.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both the RC2010FK-07137RL and RMCF2010FT137R are ROHS3 compliant, meeting current environmental and regulatory requirements for electronic components.
