Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RC3216F14R3CS is determined by strict alignment of the following parameters:

Critical Electrical Parameters:

• Resistance value: 14.3 Ohms (exact match required)
• Tolerance: ±1% (exact match required)
• Power rating: 0.25W minimum (equal or higher acceptable)
• Temperature coefficient: ±100ppm/°C (exact match required)
• Operating temperature range: -55°C to 155°C minimum (equal or wider acceptable)

Critical Mechanical Parameters:

• Package / Case: 1206 (3216 Metric) (exact match required)
• Number of terminations: 2 (exact match required)
• Composition: Thick Film (exact match required)

Compliance Parameters:

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

Substitute parts are grouped into two categories: Direct Equivalents (matching all parameters including power rating) and Similar Alternatives (matching core electrical and mechanical parameters with variations in features or power rating).

Parameter Comparison

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RC1206FR-0714R3L replace RC3216F14R3CS in all applications?

A: Yes. The RC1206FR-0714R3L is a direct equivalent meeting all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. Both components have identical resistance (14.3 Ohms), tolerance (±1%), power rating (0.25W), temperature coefficient (±100ppm/°C), operating temperature range (-55°C to 155°C), package format (1206), and compliance status (ROHS3, MSL 1). Physical dimensions are within acceptable tolerance for PCB assembly.

Q: What is the difference between CRCW120614R3FKEA and CRCW120614R3FKEAHP?

A: Both parts share identical electrical specifications (14.3 Ohms, ±1%, ±100ppm/°C, -55°C to 155°C). The primary difference is power rating: CRCW120614R3FKEA is rated 0.25W (1/4W), while CRCW120614R3FKEAHP is rated 0.75W (3/4W). CRCW120614R3FKEAHP additionally features pulse withstanding capability. Both are automotive AEC-Q200 qualified and Active product status.
