Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the RC2012F6984CS and CRCW08056M98FKEA are Active products with ROHS3 compliance and Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 rating. The parts are electrically and mechanically equivalent across all specified parameters. The CRCW08056M98FKEA includes AEC-Q200 automotive qualification, which provides additional qualification documentation for applications requiring automotive-grade component traceability. Selection between these parts should be based on availability, supply chain requirements, and any application-specific qualification mandates. The seated height difference (0.66mm versus 0.50mm) is within typical PCB assembly tolerances for 0805 package components and does not affect functional compatibility in standard applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can CRCW08056M98FKEA be used as a direct replacement for RC2012F6984CS?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical specifications (6.98 MOhms ±1%, 0.125W, ±100ppm/°C), operate across the same temperature range (-55°C ~ 155°C), use the same 0805 package, and meet ROHS3 compliance requirements. The parts are functionally equivalent for circuit applications.

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

A: AEC-Q200 is an automotive qualification standard. The CRCW08056M98FKEA carries this certification, indicating it has undergone additional reliability testing and qualification procedures required for automotive applications. The Samsung part does not list this certification.

Q: Are there any physical compatibility concerns between these parts?

A: Both parts use the 0805 (2012 Metric) package with identical length and width dimensions (2.00mm x 1.25mm). The seated height differs by 0.16mm (0.66mm versus 0.50mm), which is within standard PCB assembly tolerances and does not affect placement or soldering compatibility.

Q: What compliance certifications apply to both parts?

A: Both parts are ROHS3 Compliant, REACH Unaffected, and classified under ECCN EAR99. Both carry Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions during storage or handling.

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

A: Yes. The electrical and mechanical parameters are equivalent. No circuit redesign or PCB layout modification is required for substitution. Both parts are suitable for direct board-level replacement.
