RC3216F623CS Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The RC3216F623CS is a 62 kOhms ±1% 0.25W thick film chip resistor in 1206 (3216 Metric) package manufactured by Samsung Electro-Mechanics. This component is classified as Active product status with moisture-resistant construction and ROHS3 compliance. The part operates across -55°C to 155°C with a temperature coefficient of ±100ppm/°C. Equivalent and substitute parts are necessary when the primary part experiences supply constraints, when specific certifications are required for application requirements, or when alternative sourcing improves procurement efficiency while maintaining electrical and mechanical compatibility.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Substitutes (Active Product Status):

RC1206FR-0762KL (YAGEO) and RMCF1206FT62K0 (Stackpole Electronics Inc) are recommended as primary substitutes. Both parts maintain Active product status, ensuring long-term availability and continued manufacturing support. RMCF1206FT62K0 includes AEC-Q200 automotive qualification, providing additional certification coverage for applications requiring automotive-grade components.

CRCW120662K0FKEA (Vishay Dale) is an Active product with AEC-Q200 certification and represents a third viable option with established supply chain presence.

Secondary Substitutes (Limited Availability):

ERJ-8ENF6202V (Panasonic Electronic Components) carries AEC-Q200 certification but is designated as Not For New Designs. This part is suitable for replacement and maintenance applications but should not be selected for new circuit designs.

MCR18ERTF6202 (Rohm Semiconductor) is Discontinued at DiGi Electronics and should be avoided for new procurement. This part is listed for reference only and represents obsolete inventory.

Compliance Alignment:

All substitute parts maintain ROHS3 compliance, Moisture Sensitivity Level 1, and REACH Unaffected status identical to the primary part. Selection between Active substitutes depends on supply availability, packaging format requirements (Tape & Reel vs. Cut Tape), and whether AEC-Q200 automotive certification is required by application specifications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can ERJ-8ENF6202V replace RC3216F623CS in new designs?

A: ERJ-8ENF6202V is designated as Not For New Designs. While electrical and mechanical parameters are identical, this part should be used only for replacement and maintenance of existing assemblies. For new circuit designs, select from Active status alternatives: RC1206FR-0762KL, RMCF1206FT62K0, or CRCW120662K0FKEA.

Q: What is the difference between parts with and without AEC-Q200 certification?

A: AEC-Q200 certification indicates the part meets automotive industry reliability and qualification standards. Parts with AEC-Q200 (ERJ-8ENF6202V, RMCF1206FT62K0, CRCW120662K0FKEA) are suitable for automotive applications. Parts without AEC-Q200 (RC3216F623CS, RC1206FR-0762KL) are suitable for general industrial and consumer applications. AEC-Q200 certification does not restrict use in non-automotive applications.

Q: Are there physical dimension differences between substitute parts?

A: Minor variations exist within the 1206 package specification. Length ranges from 0.120" to 0.126" (3.05mm to 3.20mm), and height ranges from 0.024" to 0.028" (0.60mm to 0.70mm). These variations remain within 1206 package tolerances and do not affect PCB layout compatibility or electrical performance.

Q: Is MCR18ERTF6202 available for procurement?

A: MCR18ERTF6202 is Discontinued at DiGi Electronics. This part should not be selected for new procurement. Use Active alternatives: RC1206FR-0762KL, RMCF1206FT62K0, or CRCW120662K0FKEA.

Q: Do all substitute parts have identical moisture sensitivity?

A: Yes. All parts listed, including the primary RC3216F623CS, maintain Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited). This classification indicates no moisture sensitivity restrictions and no special handling requirements during storage or assembly.

Q: What packaging formats are available for substitutes?

A: RC1206FR-0762KL, RMCF1206FT62K0, and CRCW120662K0FKEA are supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format. ERJ-8ENF6202V and MCR18ERTF6202 are supplied in Cut Tape (CT) & Digi-Reel® format. Packaging format selection depends on assembly equipment compatibility and procurement volume requirements.

Q: Can substitute parts be used interchangeably on existing PCBs?

A: Yes. All substitute parts are qualified for direct replacement on PCBs designed for RC3216F623CS. Identical 1206 package specifications, two-terminal configuration, and electrical parameters ensure mechanical and electrical compatibility without PCB redesign.
