Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

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

Electrical Specifications: Resistance value (97.6 kOhms), tolerance (±1%), power rating (0.125W), and temperature coefficient (±100ppm/°C) must be identical.

Mechanical Compatibility: Package designation (0805 / 2012 Metric), physical dimensions (0.079" L x 0.049" W / 2.00mm x 1.25mm), and termination count (2) must match.

Environmental & Compliance: Operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 155°C), moisture sensitivity level (MSL 1), RoHS3 compliance, and REACH unaffected status must be maintained.

Composition & Features: Thick film construction is required. Moisture resistant characteristics are standard across all listed substitutes.

All substitute parts listed meet these criteria. Additional features such as Automotive AEC-Q200 rating represent enhanced qualifications that do not preclude substitution in non-automotive applications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Direct Substitution (Functionally Equivalent):

RC0805FR-0797K6L (YAGEO) is a direct substitute with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. This part maintains all compliance certifications and environmental ratings of the original RC2012F9762CS.

Substitution with Enhanced Qualification:

CRCW080597K6FKEA (Vishay Dale), ERJ-6ENF9762V (Panasonic Electronic Components), and RMCF0805FT97K6 (Stackpole Electronics Inc) are functionally equivalent substitutes with Automotive AEC-Q200 qualification. These parts exceed the base specification requirements and are suitable for applications requiring automotive-grade reliability. Height variations (0.020" to 0.028") remain within standard PCB assembly tolerances for 0805 packages.

Compliance Verification:

All substitute parts maintain ROHS3 compliance, REACH unaffected status, and MSL 1 moisture sensitivity rating. No additional qualification testing is required for direct substitution based on provided specifications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RC0805FR-0797K6L replace RC2012F9762CS in existing designs?

A: Yes. RC0805FR-0797K6L is a direct substitute with identical electrical specifications (97.6 kΩ ±1%, 0.125W), temperature coefficient (±100ppm/°C), operating range (-55°C ~ 155°C), and 0805 package dimensions. All compliance certifications match.

Q: What is the difference between moisture resistant and automotive AEC-Q200 versions?

A: Moisture resistant is a standard feature across all listed parts. Automotive AEC-Q200 is an additional qualification standard applied to CRCW080597K6FKEA, ERJ-6ENF9762V, and RMCF0805FT97K6. This qualification does not restrict use in non-automotive applications; it indicates enhanced reliability testing and qualification.

Q: Are height differences between substitute parts significant?

A: Height variations range from 0.020" (0.50mm) to 0.028" (0.70mm). These differences are within standard PCB assembly tolerances for 0805 (2012 Metric) packages and do not affect electrical performance or mechanical fit in standard applications.

Q: Do all substitute parts have the same packaging format?

A: Yes. All listed parts are supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format, matching the original RC2012F9762CS packaging specification.

Q: Is MSL 1 rating consistent across all parts?

A: Yes. All parts, including the original and all substitutes, carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity level, indicating no moisture precautions are required during storage or handling.

Q: Can automotive-qualified parts be used in consumer applications?

A: Yes. Automotive AEC-Q200 qualification represents an enhanced standard that exceeds consumer-grade requirements. Parts with this qualification are fully compatible with non-automotive applications.
