Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RC2012F2262CS is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Resistance Value: 22.6 kOhms (exact match required)
• Tolerance: ±1% (exact match required)
• Power Rating: 0.125W / 1/8W (exact match required)
• Package / Case: 0805 (2012 Metric) (exact match required)
• Composition: Thick Film (exact match required)
• Temperature Coefficient: ±100ppm/°C (exact match required)
• Operating Temperature Range: -55°C ~ 155°C (exact match required)
• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant (exact match required)
• MSL Rating: 1 (Unlimited) (exact match required)

Acceptable Variation Parameters:

• Height - Seated (Max): Variation permitted within component envelope constraints (0.020" to 0.028" range observed across qualified substitutes)
• Manufacturer and Series designation: Different manufacturers permitted provided all electrical and mechanical parameters match

All three substitute parts listed meet these criteria and are classified as direct equivalents suitable for one-to-one replacement.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three substitute parts are qualified direct equivalents to the RC2012F2262CS based on electrical parameter matching and compliance certifications.

RC0805FR-0722K6L (YAGEO): This part maintains full electrical equivalence with identical tolerance, power rating, and temperature characteristics. YAGEO RC_L series components are Active status products with ROHS3 compliance and unlimited MSL rating. The seated height of 0.024" (0.60mm) is within acceptable PCB assembly envelope constraints. This substitute is suitable for applications where moisture-resistant thick film construction and general industrial operating conditions are specified.

CRCW080522K6FKEA (Vishay Dale): This part provides electrical equivalence with the addition of AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. The CRCW series is Active status with ROHS3 compliance and unlimited MSL rating. The seated height of 0.020" (0.50mm) represents the lowest profile among available substitutes. Selection of this part is appropriate for applications requiring automotive-grade reliability or when PCB space constraints necessitate minimum component height.

ERJ-6ENF2262V (Panasonic): This part delivers electrical equivalence with AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. The ERJ-6EN series is Active status with ROHS3 compliance and unlimited MSL rating. The seated height of 0.028" (0.70mm) is the highest among available substitutes but remains within standard PCB assembly tolerances. Selection of this part is appropriate for automotive applications or when Panasonic component qualification is specified in design documentation.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RC0805FR-0722K6L be used as a direct replacement for RC2012F2262CS?

A: Yes. Both components share identical electrical specifications: 22.6 kOhms ±1% resistance, 0.125W power rating, ±100ppm/°C temperature coefficient, and -55°C to 155°C operating range. Both are thick film construction with ROHS3 compliance and unlimited MSL rating. The 0805 package footprint is identical. Substitution is electrically and mechanically valid.

Q: What is the difference between the three substitute parts?

A: All three substitutes are electrically identical to the main part. The primary differences are manufacturer identity and automotive qualification status. CRCW080522K6FKEA and ERJ-6ENF2262V include AEC-Q200 automotive qualification; RC0805FR-0722K6L does not. Seated heights vary slightly (0.020" to 0.028") but all are within standard PCB assembly specifications.

Q: Are the automotive-qualified parts (Vishay and Panasonic) required for non-automotive applications?

A: No. Automotive qualification is not required for general industrial applications. RC0805FR-0722K6L (YAGEO) provides full electrical equivalence without automotive qualification and is suitable for standard industrial use. Selection of automotive-qualified parts should be based on specific design requirements or customer specifications.

Q: Does the variation in seated height affect PCB assembly compatibility?

A: No. All seated heights (0.020" to 0.028") fall within standard PCB assembly process windows and component envelope specifications for 0805 package format. Height variation does not impact electrical performance or mechanical fit on standard PCB designs.

Q: Are all substitute parts currently in stock?

A: Inventory status is subject to change. RC0805FR-0722K6L (YAGEO) shows 68,519 pieces available. CRCW080522K6FKEA (Vishay Dale) shows 9,305 pieces available. ERJ-6ENF2262V (Panasonic) shows 51,167 pieces available. Verify current availability with supplier before finalizing procurement decisions.

Q: Can these parts be used interchangeably in the same design without PCB modification?

A: Yes. All substitute parts use identical 0805 (2012 Metric) package format with standard two-termination configuration. PCB footprints, solder pad layouts, and assembly processes are identical. No PCB design changes are required for substitution.
