Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RC2012F1182CS is determined by strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

Electrical Specifications: Resistance value (11.8 kOhms), tolerance (±1%), and power rating (0.125W) must be identical. Temperature coefficient (±100ppm/°C) and operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 155°C) establish thermal performance boundaries.

Mechanical Compatibility: Package designation (0805 / 2012 Metric) and number of terminations (2) ensure physical fit and solderability on printed circuit boards. Component height and dimensional tolerances must accommodate existing PCB layouts and assembly equipment.

Compliance & Environmental: RoHS3 compliance and Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited) are mandatory for regulatory and manufacturing process compatibility. REACH Unaffected status confirms material composition alignment.

Packaging Format: Tape & Reel (TR) packaging maintains supply chain consistency and automated assembly compatibility.

All identified substitute parts meet these criteria without exception.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Direct Equivalent: RC0805FR-0711K8L (YAGEO) is classified as a direct manufacturer equivalent. This part maintains identical electrical and thermal specifications with the original RC2012F1182CS. The seated height of 0.024" (0.60mm) is within acceptable PCB assembly tolerances. ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 rating confirm regulatory and manufacturing process compatibility.

Automotive-Qualified Alternatives: CRCW080511K8FKEA (Vishay Dale), ERJ-6ENF1182V (Panasonic Electronic Components), and RMCF0805FT11K8 (Stackpole Electronics Inc) are classified as similar parts with AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. These components meet all electrical and mechanical parameters of the original part. The AEC-Q200 rating indicates enhanced reliability testing and qualification for automotive applications. Seated heights range from 0.020" to 0.028", all within standard PCB assembly specifications. Selection among these three alternatives is determined by supply chain availability, lead time requirements, and application-specific automotive qualification needs.

Product Status: All identified parts maintain Active product status, ensuring continued manufacturing support and supply chain availability.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RC0805FR-0711K8L (YAGEO) be used as a direct replacement for RC2012F1182CS (Samsung)?

A: Yes. RC0805FR-0711K8L meets all critical substitution parameters: identical 11.8 kOhms resistance, ±1% tolerance, 0.125W power rating, 0805 package, ±100ppm/°C temperature coefficient, -55°C to 155°C operating range, ROHS3 compliance, and MSL 1 rating. Seated height of 0.024" (0.60mm) is within standard PCB assembly tolerances.

Q: What is the difference between the original part and the AEC-Q200 qualified alternatives?

A: CRCW080511K8FKEA, ERJ-6ENF1182V, and RMCF0805FT11K8 carry AEC-Q200 automotive qualification, indicating enhanced reliability testing and qualification for automotive applications. Electrical and mechanical specifications remain identical to the original RC2012F1182CS. Selection depends on application requirements and supply availability.

Q: Are all substitute parts ROHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. All identified substitute parts are ROHS3 compliant with Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited), matching the original RC2012F1182CS compliance profile.

Q: Do seated height variations affect PCB assembly compatibility?

A: Seated heights range from 0.020" (0.50mm) to 0.028" (0.70mm) across all parts. These variations fall within standard 0805 package tolerances and do not affect PCB assembly compatibility, solder reflow processes, or component placement accuracy.

Q: Can these parts be used interchangeably in production?

A: Yes, for applications not requiring automotive qualification. RC0805FR-0711K8L (YAGEO) is the direct equivalent. For automotive applications, CRCW080511K8FKEA, ERJ-6ENF1182V, or RMCF0805FT11K8 are appropriate selections based on supply chain and qualification requirements.

Q: What packaging format is used for all substitute parts?

A: All substitute parts are supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format, maintaining compatibility with automated assembly equipment and supply chain processes.
