Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RC2012F5364CS is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Electrical Parameters (Must Match Exactly):

• Resistance value: 5.36 MOhms
• Tolerance: ±1%
• Power rating: 0.125W (1/8W)
• Temperature coefficient: ±100ppm/°C
• Operating temperature range: -55°C to 155°C

Mechanical Parameters (Must Match Exactly):

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

Material & Composition (Must Match Exactly):

• Composition: Thick Film

Compliance Parameters (Must Match or Exceed):

• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited)

The substitute part CRCW08055M36FKEA meets all electrical, mechanical, and material specifications. Additional certifications such as AEC-Q200 automotive qualification do not disqualify a part from substitution but represent enhanced qualification levels.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Direct Substitution Criteria:

The CRCW08055M36FKEA from Vishay Dale is electrically and mechanically equivalent to the RC2012F5364CS. Both components share identical resistance values, tolerance specifications, power ratings, package dimensions, and operating temperature ranges. Both maintain ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 moisture sensitivity ratings.

Compliance Considerations:

Both parts are classified as Active product status. The CRCW08055M36FKEA carries additional AEC-Q200 automotive qualification, which represents enhanced reliability testing and qualification for automotive applications. This additional certification does not prevent substitution in non-automotive applications and may provide enhanced reliability margins in general industrial use.

Physical Compatibility:

The CRCW08055M36FKEA has a maximum seated height of 0.020" (0.50mm) compared to the RC2012F5364CS at 0.026" (0.65mm). This lower profile is compatible with standard 0805 package footprints and does not create assembly or clearance issues.

Regulatory Alignment:

Both parts maintain REACH Unaffected status and EAR99 ECCN classification, ensuring equivalent regulatory compliance for export and supply chain requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can CRCW08055M36FKEA replace RC2012F5364CS in existing designs?

A: Yes. The CRCW08055M36FKEA meets all electrical and mechanical specifications of the RC2012F5364CS. Both components have identical resistance (5.36 MOhms), tolerance (±1%), power rating (0.125W), package format (0805), and operating temperature range (-55°C to 155°C). Direct substitution is supported without design modification.

Q: What is the significance of the AEC-Q200 rating on the substitute part?

A: AEC-Q200 is an automotive qualification standard that certifies the component for automotive applications through enhanced reliability testing. This certification does not restrict use in non-automotive applications and indicates additional quality assurance. For non-automotive designs, this represents an optional enhancement rather than a requirement.

Q: Are there physical compatibility concerns with the different seated heights?

A: No. The CRCW08055M36FKEA has a maximum seated height of 0.020" (0.50mm) versus 0.026" (0.65mm) for the RC2012F5364CS. Both heights are within standard 0805 package specifications and compatible with typical PCB assembly processes and clearance requirements.

Q: Do both parts have identical moisture sensitivity ratings?

A: Yes. Both the RC2012F5364CS and CRCW08055M36FKEA are rated MSL 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions. Both components can be stored and handled without special moisture control measures.

Q: Are there any regulatory or compliance differences between these parts?

A: No significant differences exist. Both parts are ROHS3 compliant, REACH Unaffected, and classified under EAR99 ECCN. Both maintain Active product status with equivalent regulatory standing.

Q: What packaging formats are available for these substitute parts?

A: Both the RC2012F5364CS and CRCW08055M36FKEA are supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) packaging format, standard for automated assembly processes.
