Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the RC2012F23R7CS are qualified based on the following critical parameters that determine functional interchangeability:

Electrical Parameters:

• Resistance value: 23.7 Ohms (exact match required)
• Tolerance: ±1% (exact match required)
• Power rating: 0.125W / 1/8W (exact match required)
• Temperature coefficient: ±100ppm/°C (exact match required)
• Operating temperature range: -55°C ~ 155°C (exact match required)

Mechanical Parameters:

• Package type: 0805 (2012 Metric) (exact match required)
• Physical dimensions: 0.079" L x 0.049" W / 2.00mm x 1.25mm (exact match required)
• Number of terminations: 2 (exact match required)

Compliance Parameters:

• RoHS3 Compliant (required)
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited) (required)
• REACH Status: REACH Unaffected (required)

All identified substitute parts meet these core criteria. Additional features such as automotive AEC-Q200 qualification represent enhanced specifications that do not prevent substitution but indicate expanded application scope.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three substitute parts—RC0805FR-0723R7L (YAGEO), CRCW080523R7FKEA (Vishay Dale), and ERJ-6ENF23R7V (Panasonic)—are functionally equivalent to the RC2012F23R7CS based on matching electrical and mechanical specifications. All parts maintain Active product status and full RoHS3 compliance.

RC0805FR-0723R7L (YAGEO): Direct equivalent with identical moisture-resistant thick film composition. Seated height of 0.024" (0.60mm) is within acceptable tolerance range for 0805 package applications.

CRCW080523R7FKEA (Vishay Dale): Equivalent with additional automotive AEC-Q200 qualification. Lowest seated height at 0.020" (0.50mm) provides enhanced clearance margin in space-constrained PCB layouts. Suitable for automotive and industrial applications requiring enhanced reliability standards.

ERJ-6ENF23R7V (Panasonic): Equivalent with automotive AEC-Q200 qualification. Seated height of 0.028" (0.70mm) represents maximum height within 0805 package specification. Suitable for automotive and industrial applications requiring enhanced reliability standards.

Selection among these substitutes depends on application requirements, PCB layout constraints, and supply chain availability. All parts are suitable for direct replacement in standard industrial and consumer applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RC0805FR-0723R7L replace RC2012F23R7CS directly?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical specifications (23.7 Ohms ±1%, 0.125W), mechanical package (0805 / 2012 Metric), composition (thick film), and compliance ratings (RoHS3, MSL 1). The seated height difference of 0.002" (0.06mm) is within standard 0805 package tolerance.

Q: What is the difference between the Samsung RC2012F23R7CS and the automotive-qualified substitutes?

A: The Samsung part features moisture-resistant thick film composition. The Vishay Dale CRCW080523R7FKEA and Panasonic ERJ-6ENF23R7V substitutes include automotive AEC-Q200 qualification, indicating compliance with automotive reliability and environmental stress testing standards. All three parts meet identical electrical and thermal specifications.

Q: Are there height restrictions when substituting these parts?

A: The 0805 package specification allows seated heights up to 0.028" (0.70mm). All substitute parts fall within this range: RC0805FR-0723R7L at 0.024" (0.60mm), CRCW080523R7FKEA at 0.020" (0.50mm), and ERJ-6ENF23R7V at 0.028" (0.70mm). Height differences do not affect electrical performance or standard PCB assembly processes.

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

A: Yes. The RC2012F23R7CS and all three substitute parts are rated MSL 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions for storage, handling, or assembly.

Q: Which substitute part should be selected for automotive applications?

A: Both CRCW080523R7FKEA (Vishay Dale) and ERJ-6ENF23R7V (Panasonic) carry AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. Selection between these two depends on PCB layout constraints (height clearance) and supply availability. CRCW080523R7FKEA offers the lowest profile at 0.020" (0.50mm).

Q: Are all parts RoHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. The RC2012F23R7CS and all substitute parts are ROHS3 Compliant and REACH Unaffected, meeting current environmental and regulatory requirements.

Q: Can these parts be used interchangeably in existing designs?

A: Yes. All parts meet identical electrical specifications, mechanical dimensions, and compliance requirements. No design modifications are required for substitution.
