Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RC3216F625CS is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Electrical Equivalence Requirements:

• Resistance value: 6.2 MOhms
• Tolerance: ±1%
• Power rating: 0.25W (1/4W)
• Temperature coefficient: ±100ppm/°C
• Operating temperature range: -55°C ~ 155°C

Mechanical Equivalence Requirements:

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

Compliance Requirements:

• RoHS3 Compliant
• MSL rating: 1 (Unlimited)
• REACH Unaffected status

The substitute part RC1206FR-076M2L from YAGEO meets all electrical and mechanical equivalence criteria, with minor dimensional variations within acceptable tolerances for the 1206 package class.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The RC1206FR-076M2L from YAGEO is a direct electrical and mechanical equivalent to the RC3216F625CS from Samsung Electro-Mechanics. Both components satisfy identical specifications for resistance value, tolerance, power rating, temperature coefficient, and operating temperature range. Both are ROHS3 compliant with MSL rating 1 (Unlimited), confirming equivalent environmental and regulatory status.

Dimensional variations between the two parts (length 3.20mm vs. 3.10mm, height 0.66mm vs. 0.65mm) remain within standard tolerances for the 1206 package class and do not affect PCB layout compatibility or functional performance.

Selection between these parts may be based on availability, packaging format (Samsung offers standard packaging; YAGEO offers Tape & Reel), lead time, or supply chain requirements, as all technical parameters are equivalent.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RC1206FR-076M2L replace RC3216F625CS in all applications?

A: Yes. Both components are electrically and mechanically equivalent across all specified parameters including resistance value, tolerance, power rating, temperature coefficient, operating temperature range, and package dimensions. Both meet ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 requirements.

Q: Are there dimensional differences between these parts?

A: Minor dimensional variations exist within the 1206 package tolerance band. The RC3216F625CS measures 3.20mm length and 0.66mm height (seated), while the RC1206FR-076M2L measures 3.10mm length and 0.65mm height (seated). These differences are within standard package tolerances and do not affect PCB footprint compatibility.
