Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RC3216F5760CS is determined by strict alignment of the following parameters:

Core Electrical Parameters:

• Resistance value: 576 Ohms
• Tolerance: ±1%
• Power rating: 0.25W (1/4W)
• Temperature coefficient: ±100ppm/°C
• Operating temperature range: -55°C ~ 155°C

Mechanical Parameters:

• Package type: 1206 (3216 Metric)
• Number of terminations: 2
• Composition: Thick Film

Compliance Parameters:

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

All identified substitute parts meet these core requirements. Variations in physical dimensions (length, width, height) within the 1206 package specification, packaging format (Tape & Reel vs. standard), and additional certifications (such as AEC-Q200 automotive qualification) do not disqualify substitution but are noted for application-specific considerations.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

RC1206FR-07576RL (YAGEO) is the primary direct substitute. This part maintains Active product status, carries ROHS3 compliance, and provides the highest inventory availability at 72976 pieces. Physical dimensions are within 1206 package tolerance with length of 3.10mm and height of 0.65mm. Packaging is Tape & Reel format.

CRCW1206576RFKEA (Vishay Dale) is a qualified substitute with Active product status and AEC-Q200 automotive certification. This part is suitable for applications requiring automotive-grade reliability. Physical dimensions match the original specification at 3.20mm length and 0.60mm height. Inventory availability is 5583 pieces in Tape & Reel format.

ERJ-8ENF5760V (Panasonic Electronic Components) meets all core electrical and mechanical parameters with AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. However, this part carries a "Not For New Designs" product status designation. Use of this part is limited to legacy system maintenance or replacement applications where design continuity is required. Inventory is 18697 pieces. Physical height is 0.70mm, within 1206 package specification.

For new circuit designs, RC1206FR-07576RL or CRCW1206576RFKEA are recommended. For existing designs or legacy system support, ERJ-8ENF5760V remains functionally equivalent.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RC1206FR-07576RL replace RC3216F5760CS in all applications?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical specifications (576 Ohms ±1%, 0.25W, ±100ppm/°C, -55°C to 155°C), composition (thick film), and compliance status (ROHS3, MSL 1). Physical dimensions are within 1206 package tolerance. Direct substitution is valid.

Q: What is the difference between the Samsung and YAGEO parts?

A: The RC3216F5760CS (Samsung) and RC1206FR-07576RL (YAGEO) are electrically and mechanically equivalent. Differences are limited to manufacturer identity, series designation (RC vs. RC_L), and minor dimensional variations within 1206 specification (length 3.20mm vs. 3.10mm, height 0.66mm vs. 0.65mm). Both are Active products.

Q: Why does CRCW1206576RFKEA have AEC-Q200 certification?

A: AEC-Q200 is an automotive industry qualification standard. CRCW1206576RFKEA is manufactured to meet automotive reliability requirements. This certification does not affect substitution eligibility for non-automotive applications but indicates enhanced quality assurance and testing protocols.

Q: Can ERJ-8ENF5760V be used in new designs?

A: ERJ-8ENF5760V carries "Not For New Designs" product status. This designation indicates the manufacturer is phasing out this part. For new circuit designs, use RC1206FR-07576RL or CRCW1206576RFKEA instead. ERJ-8ENF5760V is suitable only for replacement or legacy system maintenance.

Q: Are there packaging format differences between substitutes?

A: All substitute parts are supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format. The original RC3216F5760CS packaging format is not specified in the provided data. Tape & Reel format is standard for high-volume SMD assembly. Confirm packaging compatibility with your procurement and assembly processes.

Q: Do all substitutes have the same moisture sensitivity level?

A: Yes. All parts, including the original RC3216F5760CS and all substitutes, carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) rating. This indicates no moisture sensitivity restrictions and no special storage or handling requirements.

Q: What is the significance of the ±100ppm/°C temperature coefficient?

A: Temperature coefficient defines resistance change per degree Celsius. All parts in this comparison maintain ±100ppm/°C across the full operating range of -55°C to 155°C. This specification ensures consistent performance across temperature extremes and is identical across all substitutes.

Q: Can physical dimension variations affect PCB layout?

A: Physical dimensions within the 1206 package specification are standardized for PCB footprint compatibility. Variations noted (length 3.10mm to 3.20mm, height 0.60mm to 0.70mm) are within tolerance and do not require PCB redesign. Standard 1206 footprints accommodate all listed parts.
