Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts are classified into two categories based on substitution compatibility:

Direct Substitutes maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications with no design modifications required:

• CR1206-FX-6192ELF (Bourns Inc.)
• RC1206FR-0761K9L (YAGEO)

These parts share the core parameters: 61.9 kOhms resistance, ±1% tolerance, 0.25W power rating, 1206 package, ±100ppm/°C temperature coefficient, -55°C to 155°C operating range, thick film composition, moisture resistance, ROHS3 compliance, and MSL 1 rating.

Similar Substitutes provide equivalent electrical performance with additional automotive-grade certifications:

• CRCW120661K9FKEA (Vishay Dale) – AEC-Q200 rated
• ERJ-8ENF6192V (Panasonic Electronic Components) – AEC-Q200 rated, Not For New Designs status

These parts match all core electrical and mechanical parameters but include AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. The Panasonic part carries a "Not For New Designs" status, indicating it is suitable for replacement in existing designs but not recommended for new product development.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For Direct Replacement in Active Production Designs:

CR1206-FX-6192ELF (Bourns Inc.) and RC1206FR-0761K9L (YAGEO) are the primary substitute options. Both maintain full electrical and mechanical compatibility with the RC3216F6192CS. Bourns inventory (26,080 pieces) and YAGEO inventory (41,795 pieces) provide substantial availability. Both parts are active products with ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 rating, suitable for immediate integration into existing circuit designs.

For Automotive or High-Reliability Applications:

CRCW120661K9FKEA (Vishay Dale) is the recommended choice when AEC-Q200 automotive qualification is required. This part meets all electrical and mechanical specifications of the original component while providing automotive-grade reliability certification. The part is active in production with 16,366 pieces in stock.

For Legacy Design Maintenance:

ERJ-8ENF6192V (Panasonic Electronic Components) is available for replacement in existing designs but carries a "Not For New Designs" status. This part is suitable only for sustaining production or field replacement scenarios where the original Panasonic component was specified. New product development should utilize CR1206-FX-6192ELF, RC1206FR-0761K9L, or CRCW120661K9FKEA instead.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can CR1206-FX-6192ELF replace RC3216F6192CS without circuit modification?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical specifications (61.9 kOhms ±1%, 0.25W), temperature coefficient (±100ppm/°C), operating range (-55°C to 155°C), and package dimensions (1206 / 3216 Metric). No circuit redesign is required.

Q: What is the difference between direct substitutes and similar substitutes?

A: Direct substitutes (Bourns CR1206-FX-6192ELF and YAGEO RC1206FR-0761K9L) match all specifications of the original part. Similar substitutes (Vishay CRCW120661K9FKEA and Panasonic ERJ-8ENF6192V) add AEC-Q200 automotive certification, making them suitable for automotive applications but not required for standard industrial use.

Q: Why is ERJ-8ENF6192V marked "Not For New Designs"?

A: This status indicates the part is in mature production phase with no active development. It remains available for replacement in existing designs but should not be selected for new product development. Use CR1206-FX-6192ELF, RC1206FR-0761K9L, or CRCW120661K9FKEA for new designs.

Q: Are all substitute parts ROHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. All listed substitute parts (CR1206-FX-6192ELF, RC1206FR-0761K9L, CRCW120661K9FKEA, and ERJ-8ENF6192V) are ROHS3 compliant with MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating, matching the original RC3216F6192CS.

Q: What are the physical dimension differences between substitute parts?

A: All parts use the 1206 (3216 Metric) package. Length variations are minimal: RC3216F6192CS and CRCW120661K9FKEA measure 0.126" (3.20mm), while RC1206FR-0761K9L measures 0.122" (3.10mm). Height differences range from 0.024" to 0.030" (0.60mm to 0.75mm). These variations are within standard PCB pad tolerances and do not affect interchangeability.

Q: Which substitute part offers the best inventory availability?

A: YAGEO RC1206FR-0761K9L provides the highest inventory level at 41,795 pieces, followed by Bourns CR1206-FX-6192ELF at 26,080 pieces. Both ensure consistent supply for production requirements.

Q: Can CRCW120661K9FKEA be used in non-automotive applications?

A: Yes. CRCW120661K9FKEA meets all electrical and mechanical requirements for standard industrial applications. The AEC-Q200 certification is an additional qualification that does not restrict use in non-automotive circuits.
