Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

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

Mandatory Matching Criteria:

• Resistance value: 16.9 kOhms
• Tolerance: ±1%
• Power rating: 0.125W (1/8W)
• Package: 0805 (2012 Metric)
• Composition: Thick Film
• Temperature coefficient: ±100ppm/°C
• Operating temperature range: -55°C to 155°C
• MSL rating: 1 (Unlimited)
• RoHS compliance: ROHS3 Compliant
• Termination count: 2

Classification Basis:

Direct Substitutes maintain all mandatory parameters with identical electrical and mechanical specifications across manufacturers. These parts are interchangeable without design modification.

Similar Substitutes maintain all mandatory parameters but may include additional certifications (such as AEC-Q200 automotive qualification) or enhanced features (such as anti-sulfur or high-voltage construction). These parts are functionally equivalent but may offer supplementary capabilities.

Height variation within the 0805 package specification (0.020" to 0.028" seated height maximum) does not affect substitution eligibility, as all variants remain within standard PCB assembly tolerances.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Active Status Parts (Recommended for New Designs):

CR0805-FX-1692ELF (Bourns Inc.) and RC0805FR-0716K9L (YAGEO) are preferred selections for new circuit designs. Both maintain Active product status with high inventory availability (25,377 and 119,952 units respectively). These parts provide moisture-resistant construction equivalent to the primary part with established supply chain continuity.

RMCF0805FT16K9 (Stackpole Electronics Inc.) and CRCW080516K9FKEA (Vishay Dale) are suitable alternatives with AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. These parts are appropriate for applications requiring automotive-grade reliability and are maintained in Active status with substantial inventory (28,685 and 35,792 units).

ERJ-6ENF1692V (Panasonic Electronic Components) and KTR10EZPF1692 (Rohm Semiconductor) provide AEC-Q200 certification with 77,665 and 5,450 units in stock respectively. KTR10EZPF1692 includes high-voltage construction capability, suitable for applications with elevated voltage stress requirements.

Discontinued and Obsolete Parts (Not Recommended for New Designs):

MCR10ERTF1692 (Rohm Semiconductor) is discontinued at DiGi Electronics with limited remaining inventory (662 units). This part should not be selected for new designs due to supply discontinuation.

TRR10EZPF1692 (Rohm Semiconductor) is classified as Obsolete with anti-sulfur construction. This part is not suitable for new designs and should be replaced with Active alternatives.

Compliance Considerations:

All listed parts maintain ROHS3 compliance, MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating, and REACH Unaffected status. Selection between parts should prioritize Active status availability and supply chain stability for long-term production requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can CR0805-FX-1692ELF replace RC2012F1692CS directly without PCB modification?

A: Yes. Both parts maintain identical electrical specifications (16.9 kΩ ±1%, 1/8W), identical package format (0805), and identical operating temperature range (-55°C to 155°C). The seated height difference (0.024" versus 0.026") remains within standard 0805 package tolerances and does not require PCB redesign.

Q: What is the difference between moisture-resistant and AEC-Q200 qualified parts?

A: Moisture-resistant construction (RC2012F1692CS, CR0805-FX-1692ELF, RC0805FR-0716K9L) provides standard environmental protection for general industrial applications. AEC-Q200 qualification (ERJ-6ENF1692V, KTR10EZPF1692, RMCF0805FT16K9, CRCW080516K9FKEA) indicates compliance with automotive reliability standards including thermal cycling, humidity, and mechanical stress testing. AEC-Q200 parts are suitable for both automotive and general industrial applications.

Q: Is KTR10EZPF1692 suitable for high-voltage applications?

A: KTR10EZPF1692 includes high-voltage construction as a specified feature. This part is appropriate for circuits with elevated voltage stress. Standard moisture-resistant parts (RC2012F1692CS, CR0805-FX-1692ELF) do not include this specification and should not be assumed to have equivalent high-voltage capability.

Q: Why are MCR10ERTF1692 and TRR10EZPF1692 listed if they are discontinued or obsolete?

A: These parts are documented for reference in existing designs or legacy systems. MCR10ERTF1692 is discontinued at DiGi Electronics but may have residual inventory from other sources. TRR10EZPF1692 is obsolete and should be replaced with Active alternatives in any design revision or new production run. Active alternatives with equivalent specifications are available from multiple manufacturers.

Q: What packaging format differences exist between substitute parts?

A: RC2012F1692CS, CR0805-FX-1692ELF, ERJ-6ENF1692V, KTR10EZPF1692, RMCF0805FT16K9, CRCW080516K9FKEA, MCR10ERTF1692, and TRR10EZPF1692 are supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format, suitable for automated assembly. RC0805FR-0716K9L is supplied in Cut Tape (CT) & Digi-Reel® format, suitable for manual or semi-automated assembly. Package format selection depends on production assembly method requirements.

Q: Are all substitute parts ROHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. All listed parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and REACH Unaffected status. No substitution introduces regulatory compliance risk for standard industrial or consumer applications.

Q: What inventory considerations should guide part selection?

A: RC0805FR-0716K9L (YAGEO) offers the highest inventory availability at 119,952 units, providing maximum supply security. ERJ-6ENF1692V (Panasonic) provides 77,665 units with AEC-Q200 qualification. CRCW080516K9FKEA (Vishay Dale) provides 35,792 units with automotive qualification. MCR10ERTF1692 and TRR10EZPF1692 should not be selected for new designs due to discontinued or obsolete status.
