Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the RC5025F220CS is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Equivalence Parameters:

• Resistance value: 22 Ohms
• Tolerance: ±1%
• Package format: 2010 (5025 Metric)
• Composition: Thick Film
• Temperature Coefficient: ±100ppm/°C
• Operating Temperature Range: -55°C to 155°C
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited)
• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant
• Number of Terminations: 2

Allowable Variation:

• Power rating: Substitute parts rated at 0.75W (3/4W) are acceptable as they exceed the 0.667W requirement of the main part
• Physical height: Seated height variation within 0.026" to 0.028" is acceptable within the 2010 package specification
• Manufacturer: Different manufacturers (YAGEO, Vishay Dale) are acceptable provided all electrical and mechanical parameters align

Substitute parts are classified as either Upgrade (higher power rating) or Similar (equivalent specifications) based on their power handling capability relative to the main part.

All electrical parameters, package dimensions, and compliance certifications align with the RC5025F220CS.

RC2010FK-0722RL (YAGEO) - Upgrade Classification

This part is suitable as a direct substitute with enhanced power handling. The RC2010FK-0722RL provides 0.75W rating compared to the 0.667W of the main part. All electrical parameters, package dimensions, and compliance certifications align with the RC5025F220CS. This part does not carry automotive qualification but maintains full ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 rating.

CRCW201022R0FKEF (Vishay Dale) - Similar Classification

This part is suitable as a direct substitute with enhanced power handling. The CRCW201022R0FKEF provides 0.75W rating compared to the 0.667W of the main part. This part carries AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. Physical height is 0.028" (0.70mm) compared to 0.026" (0.66mm) of the main part; this variation remains within acceptable 2010 package tolerances. All electrical parameters and compliance certifications align with the RC5025F220CS.

All substitute parts maintain Active product status and are available in production quantities.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can AC2010FK-0722RL be used in place of RC5025F220CS without circuit modification?

A: Yes. The AC2010FK-0722RL is electrically and mechanically compatible. The 22 Ohm resistance, ±1% tolerance, and ±100ppm/°C temperature coefficient are identical. The 0.75W power rating exceeds the 0.667W requirement, providing additional thermal margin. The 2010 package dimensions and termination configuration are equivalent. No circuit modification is required.

Q: What is the difference between Upgrade and Similar classification?

A: Upgrade classification indicates the substitute part has a higher power rating (0.75W versus 0.667W) while maintaining all other electrical specifications. Similar classification indicates the substitute part has equivalent power rating and all other specifications. Both classifications are suitable for direct substitution.

Q: Does the height difference between CRCW201022R0FKEF (0.028") and RC5025F220CS (0.026") affect PCB assembly?

A: No. Both parts conform to the 2010 (5025 Metric) package specification. The 0.002" (0.04mm) height variation is within standard package tolerances and does not affect PCB assembly, reflow soldering, or component placement.

Q: Are all substitute parts ROHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. All substitute parts listed carry ROHS3 compliance certification, matching the compliance status of the RC5025F220CS.

Q: Which substitute part should be selected for automotive applications?

A: Both AC2010FK-0722RL and CRCW201022R0FKEF carry AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. Either part is suitable for automotive applications. RC2010FK-0722RL does not carry automotive qualification and should not be selected for automotive-specific requirements.

Q: Is moisture sensitivity level identical across all parts?

A: Yes. All parts, including the main part and all substitutes, carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) rating, indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions for storage or handling.

Q: Can substitute parts be mixed in the same production batch?

A: Yes. All substitute parts meet identical electrical specifications, package dimensions, and compliance requirements. Parts from different manufacturers can be used interchangeably within the same circuit design.
