RC5025F131CS Equivalent & Substitute Parts Reference

Part Overview

The RC5025F131CS is a 130 Ohm ±1% thick film chip resistor manufactured by Samsung Electro-Mechanics in the 2010 (5025 Metric) package format. This component is rated for 0.667W (2/3W) power dissipation with moisture-resistant construction and operates across the temperature range of -55°C to 155°C. The part maintains Active product status and is ROHS3 compliant with MSL Level 1 rating, indicating unlimited moisture sensitivity protection.

Equivalent and substitute parts are identified when components share identical electrical specifications (resistance value, tolerance, temperature coefficient) and compatible mechanical parameters (package size, terminations, operating temperature range) while maintaining equivalent or superior power ratings and compliance certifications.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the RC5025F131CS are qualified based on the following criteria:

Electrical Equivalence Requirements:

• Resistance value: 130 Ohms (exact match)
• Tolerance: ±1% (exact match)
• Temperature coefficient: ±100ppm/°C (exact match)
• Operating temperature range: -55°C to 155°C (minimum requirement)

Mechanical Compatibility Requirements:

• Package format: 2010 (5025 Metric) (exact match)
• Number of terminations: 2 (exact match)
• Physical dimensions: 0.197" L x 0.098" W (5.00mm x 2.50mm) (exact match)

Performance Compatibility:

• Power rating: Equal to or greater than 0.667W
• Composition: Thick film construction
• Compliance: ROHS3 compliant, MSL Level 1

Substitute parts meeting all electrical and mechanical parameters are classified as direct equivalents. Parts with superior power ratings (0.75W vs. 0.667W) are classified as upgrades and remain functionally compatible in applications where the original power rating is sufficient.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

RC5025F131CS (Samsung Electro-Mechanics) - Original Part

Use the original Samsung part when bulk packaging is required and standard industrial applications do not demand automotive-grade qualification. This part maintains full electrical and mechanical compatibility with all substitute options listed.

AC2010FK-07130RL (YAGEO) - Upgrade Substitute

This part qualifies as a direct upgrade substitute. It provides identical electrical specifications with increased power rating (0.75W vs. 0.667W) and includes AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. The Tape & Reel packaging format supports high-volume production environments. YAGEO maintains Active product status with equivalent compliance certifications.

CRCW2010130RFKEF (Vishay Dale) - Upgrade Substitute

This part qualifies as a direct upgrade substitute with identical electrical specifications and increased power rating (0.75W vs. 0.667W). Vishay Dale's CRCW series includes AEC-Q200 automotive qualification and Tape & Reel packaging. The part maintains Active product status with full ROHS3 and MSL Level 1 compliance. Highest inventory availability (10,672 pcs) supports immediate procurement.

All three parts are ROHS3 compliant and MSL Level 1 rated. Selection between substitute options depends on packaging format requirements (bulk vs. Tape & Reel) and automotive qualification necessity (AEC-Q200).

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can AC2010FK-07130RL and CRCW2010130RFKEF be used interchangeably with RC5025F131CS?

A: Yes. Both substitute parts share identical electrical specifications (130 Ohms ±1%, ±100ppm/°C temperature coefficient) and mechanical compatibility (2010 package, -55°C to 155°C operating range). The higher power ratings (0.75W vs. 0.667W) provide additional thermal margin without affecting circuit performance.

Q: What is the difference between the original part and substitute parts?

A: The primary differences are power rating (0.667W original vs. 0.75W substitutes), packaging format (bulk vs. Tape & Reel), and automotive qualification (AEC-Q200 available on substitutes only). Electrical performance remains identical across all three parts.

Q: Are the physical dimensions identical across all three parts?

A: Yes. All three parts use the 2010 (5025 Metric) package with dimensions of 0.197" L x 0.098" W (5.00mm x 2.50mm). Maximum seated heights vary slightly (0.026" to 0.028") but remain within standard PCB assembly tolerances.

Q: Which part should be selected for automotive applications?

A: AC2010FK-07130RL and CRCW2010130RFKEF both carry AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. RC5025F131CS does not include this certification. For automotive applications, either YAGEO or Vishay Dale substitute is required.

Q: What does MSL 1 (Unlimited) mean for moisture sensitivity?

A: MSL Level 1 indicates the component requires no special moisture protection during storage or handling. The part can be stored indefinitely without desiccant packaging or controlled humidity environments.

Q: Can these parts be used in high-temperature applications?

A: All three parts operate across -55°C to 155°C. The ±100ppm/°C temperature coefficient ensures stable resistance values within this range. Application-specific thermal analysis is required to confirm suitability for specific high-temperature environments.

Q: What is the significance of ROHS3 compliance?

A: ROHS3 compliance indicates the part contains no restricted substances (lead, cadmium, mercury, hexavalent chromium, PBBs, PBDEs) and meets European Union environmental regulations. All three parts maintain this certification.
