Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RC2012F3094CS is determined by strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

Electrical Specifications: Resistance value (3.09 MOhms), tolerance (±1%), and power rating (0.125W) must be identical. Temperature coefficient (±100ppm/°C) and operating temperature range (-55°C to 155°C) establish thermal performance boundaries.

Mechanical Compatibility: Package designation (0805 / 2012 Metric), physical dimensions (0.079" L x 0.049" W), and termination count (2) ensure physical interchangeability on printed circuit boards.

Compliance & Environmental: RoHS3 compliance, Moisture Sensitivity Level 1, and REACH unaffected status confirm regulatory alignment. ECCN and HTSUS classifications support supply chain consistency.

Composition & Construction: Thick film construction type must match to preserve electrical performance characteristics and reliability profiles.

The CRCW08053M09FKEA from Vishay Dale meets all substitution criteria within these defined parameters.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the RC2012F3094CS and CRCW08053M09FKEA are active production components with full ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status. The RC2012F3094CS features moisture-resistant construction, while the CRCW08053M09FKEA carries AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. Selection between these parts depends on application requirements: the Samsung component is suitable for general industrial and consumer applications requiring moisture resistance, while the Vishay Dale component is specified for automotive environments where AEC-Q200 qualification is mandated. Both components share identical electrical specifications, package dimensions, and thermal operating ranges, ensuring functional equivalence in circuit design. The seated height difference (0.026" versus 0.020") is within typical PCB assembly tolerances and does not affect interchangeability.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the CRCW08053M09FKEA directly replace the RC2012F3094CS in all applications?

A: Direct replacement is supported for applications where the electrical specifications (3.09 MOhms ±1%, 0.125W) and package format (0805) are the primary selection criteria. The CRCW08053M09FKEA includes AEC-Q200 automotive qualification, which provides additional reliability assurance. The seated height difference (0.020" versus 0.026") is within standard PCB assembly specifications and does not prevent interchangeability.

Q: What are the key differences between these two parts?

A: The primary differences are manufacturer identity (Samsung versus Vishay Dale), packaging format (Tape & Reel versus Cut Tape & Digi-Reel), and qualification level (moisture-resistant versus AEC-Q200 automotive). All electrical parameters, mechanical dimensions, and compliance certifications are identical.

Q: Are both parts RoHS3 compliant?

A: Yes, both the RC2012F3094CS and CRCW08053M09FKEA are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current environmental and regulatory requirements.

Q: Does the 0.006" height difference affect PCB assembly?

A: No, the seated height difference (0.026" maximum for RC2012F3094CS versus 0.020" maximum for CRCW08053M09FKEA) falls within standard PCB assembly tolerances and does not impact component placement, soldering, or circuit performance.

Q: What is the Moisture Sensitivity Level for both parts?

A: Both components are rated MSL 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions during storage, handling, or assembly processes.

Q: Can these parts be used in automotive applications?

A: The CRCW08053M09FKEA carries AEC-Q200 automotive qualification and is specified for automotive use. The RC2012F3094CS is not automotive qualified but may be used in non-critical automotive subsystems where AEC-Q200 certification is not required.
