Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RC2012F1820CS is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Electrical Parameters: Resistance value (182 Ohms), tolerance (±1%), power rating (0.125W), temperature coefficient (±100ppm/°C), and operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 155°C) must match exactly.

Mechanical Parameters: Package designation (0805 / 2012 Metric), physical dimensions (0.079" L x 0.049" W / 2.00mm x 1.25mm), and number of terminations (2) must be identical.

Compliance Parameters: RoHS3 compliance and MSL Level 1 rating are required for all substitutes.

Packaging: Tape & Reel (TR) format is standard for all listed parts.

All identified substitute parts meet these criteria and are therefore direct functional equivalents suitable for circuit board replacement without design modification.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All listed substitute parts are functionally equivalent to the RC2012F1820CS and meet identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Selection among these alternatives is based on availability, supply chain considerations, and application-specific requirements:

RC0805FR-07182RL (YAGEO): Direct equivalent with highest inventory availability (295,572 pcs). Suitable for general industrial applications requiring standard moisture-resistant thick film performance.

CRCW0805182RFKEA (Vishay Dale): Automotive-grade AEC-Q200 rated component with lowest seated height (0.020" / 0.50mm). Appropriate for automotive and high-reliability applications where AEC-Q200 qualification is specified.

ERJ-6ENF1820V (Panasonic): Automotive-grade AEC-Q200 rated component. Suitable for automotive applications with highest seated height specification (0.028" / 0.70mm).

RMCF0805FT182R (Stackpole Electronics Inc): Automotive-grade AEC-Q200 rated component with seated height of 0.026" (0.65mm). Appropriate for automotive and industrial applications requiring AEC-Q200 compliance.

All parts maintain Active product status and full RoHS3 compliance with MSL Level 1 rating, ensuring compatibility with standard manufacturing and storage conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RC0805FR-07182RL replace RC2012F1820CS directly on the circuit board?

A: Yes. Both components share identical electrical specifications (182 Ohms ±1%, 0.125W), mechanical dimensions (0805 / 2012 Metric package, 0.079" L x 0.049" W), and compliance ratings (RoHS3, MSL 1). The seated height difference (0.024" vs 0.026") is within standard PCB assembly tolerances and does not affect functionality or placement.

Q: What is the difference between standard and automotive-grade substitutes?

A: CRCW0805182RFKEA, ERJ-6ENF1820V, and RMCF0805FT182R carry AEC-Q200 automotive qualification, indicating compliance with automotive reliability and testing standards. RC0805FR-07182RL is standard industrial grade. Both grades meet identical electrical and mechanical specifications for this 182 Ohm resistor value. Selection depends on application requirements and supply chain specifications.

Q: Are there any height restrictions when substituting these parts?

A: Seated height variations range from 0.020" (0.50mm) to 0.028" (0.70mm) across all substitutes. These differences are within standard PCB assembly clearance specifications for 0805 packages. Verify clearance requirements for specific PCB designs, particularly in high-density layouts or applications with height constraints.

Q: Do all substitute parts have the same moisture sensitivity rating?

A: Yes. All listed parts, including RC2012F1820CS, RC0805FR-07182RL, CRCW0805182RFKEA, ERJ-6ENF1820V, and RMCF0805FT182R, carry MSL Level 1 (Unlimited) rating. This indicates no moisture sensitivity restrictions and compatibility with standard storage and handling procedures.

Q: Can these parts be used interchangeably in high-temperature applications?

A: Yes. All substitute parts operate across the identical temperature range of -55°C ~ 155°C with matching temperature coefficient of ±100ppm/°C. They are functionally equivalent for high-temperature circuit applications within this specified range.

Q: What packaging format is standard for these parts?

A: All listed parts are supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format, which is standard for automated PCB assembly processes. This packaging format is consistent across RC2012F1820CS, RC0805FR-07182RL, CRCW0805182RFKEA, ERJ-6ENF1820V, and RMCF0805FT182R.
