Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RC3216F88R7CS is determined by strict equivalence across the following parameters: resistance value (88.7 Ohms), tolerance (±1%), power rating (0.25W), package format (1206), composition (thick film), temperature coefficient (±100ppm/°C), operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 155°C), and compliance certifications (ROHS3, REACH Unaffected, EAR99). All identified substitute parts meet these core electrical and mechanical requirements.

Direct Substitutes maintain identical specifications across all critical parameters and are suitable for one-to-one replacement.

Similar Substitutes meet all electrical and mechanical requirements but include additional features or different product status classifications that may affect application suitability.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

CR1206-FX-88R7ELF (Bourns Inc.) and RC1206FR-0788R7L (YAGEO) are direct substitutes with Active product status. Both components maintain full electrical and mechanical equivalence to the RC3216F88R7CS and are suitable for new designs and production applications.

ERJ-8ENF88R7V (Panasonic Electronic Components) meets all electrical and mechanical specifications but carries a "Not For New Designs" product status classification. This component includes automotive AEC-Q200 qualification, which provides additional environmental and reliability testing. Selection of this part should be limited to replacement or legacy system applications where AEC-Q200 qualification is not a requirement for new designs.

All substitute parts maintain ROHS3 compliance, REACH Unaffected status, and EAR99 export classification consistent with the original component.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can CR1206-FX-88R7ELF replace RC3216F88R7CS in production?

A: Yes. CR1206-FX-88R7ELF meets all electrical specifications (88.7 Ohms ±1%, 0.25W), mechanical dimensions (1206 package), and environmental ratings (-55°C ~ 155°C, MSL 1). Both components are Active status and ROHS3 compliant.

Q: What is the difference between RC1206FR-0788R7L and RC3216F88R7CS?

A: Both components are electrically equivalent with identical resistance, tolerance, power rating, and temperature characteristics. Physical dimensions vary slightly: RC1206FR-0788R7L measures 3.10mm L × 1.60mm W with 0.65mm maximum seated height, while RC3216F88R7CS measures 3.20mm L × 1.60mm W with 0.66mm maximum seated height. These dimensional variations are within standard 1206 package tolerances and do not affect circuit compatibility.

Q: Why is ERJ-8ENF88R7V marked "Not For New Designs"?

A: ERJ-8ENF88R7V carries this classification from Panasonic Electronic Components. The component meets all electrical and mechanical requirements for the 88.7 Ohm 1206 resistor specification. The "Not For New Designs" status indicates the manufacturer recommends alternative parts for new product development, though the component remains available for replacement and legacy applications.

Q: Are all substitute parts available in Tape & Reel packaging?

A: CR1206-FX-88R7ELF, RC1206FR-0788R7L, and ERJ-8ENF88R7V are all supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) packaging format suitable for automated assembly processes.

Q: Do all parts meet moisture-resistant specifications?

A: CR1206-FX-88R7ELF, RC1206FR-0788R7L, and RC3216F88R7CS are specified as moisture-resistant thick film resistors. ERJ-8ENF88R7V is specified with automotive AEC-Q200 qualification, which includes moisture and environmental testing requirements. All parts maintain MSL 1 (Unlimited) rating.
