RC5025F2212CS Equivalent & Substitute Parts Reference

Part Overview

The RC5025F2212CS is a 22.1 kOhms ±1% thick film chip resistor manufactured by Samsung Electro-Mechanics, rated for 0.667W (2/3W) power dissipation in a 2010 (5025 Metric) surface mount package. This component is classified as Active product status with ROHS3 compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity level (MSL 1). The part is specified for general industrial applications requiring moisture-resistant thick film construction across an operating temperature range of -55°C to 155°C.

Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical specifications and mechanical compatibility are maintained within the allowed parameter tolerances for this resistor category.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the RC5025F2212CS are qualified based on the following critical parameters:

Electrical Equivalence:

• Resistance value: 22.1 kOhms
• Tolerance: ±1%
• Temperature coefficient: ±100ppm/°C
• Operating temperature range: -55°C to 155°C

Mechanical Compatibility:

• Package / Case: 2010 (5025 Metric)
• Physical dimensions: 0.197" L × 0.098" W (5.00mm × 2.50mm)
• Number of terminations: 2

Compliance & Environmental:

• RoHS3 Compliant
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited)
• Composition: Thick Film

The identified substitute parts maintain identical electrical specifications and package geometry. Variations in power rating (0.75W vs. 0.667W) and application-specific certifications (AEC-Q200 automotive qualification) represent enhanced capabilities that do not preclude substitution in non-automotive general industrial applications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

RC5025F2212CS (Samsung Electro-Mechanics): Primary specification for moisture-resistant thick film 22.1 kOhms ±1% resistor in 2010 package. Active product status with ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 rating. Suitable for general industrial applications.

CRCW201022K1FKEF (Vishay Dale): Direct electrical equivalent with identical resistance, tolerance, and temperature coefficient. Increased power rating (0.75W vs. 0.667W) provides thermal margin. AEC-Q200 automotive qualification indicates enhanced reliability screening. ROHS3 compliant with MSL 1. Packaging in Tape & Reel format. Suitable for applications requiring automotive-grade component qualification or higher power dissipation margin.

RMCF2010FT22K1 (Stackpole Electronics Inc): Direct electrical equivalent with identical resistance, tolerance, and temperature coefficient. Increased power rating (0.75W vs. 0.667W) provides thermal margin. AEC-Q200 automotive qualification indicates enhanced reliability screening. ROHS3 compliant with MSL 1. Packaging in Tape & Reel format. Suitable for applications requiring automotive-grade component qualification or higher power dissipation margin.

All three parts maintain identical electrical performance within specified tolerances and operate across the same temperature range. Substitute parts offer higher power ratings and automotive-grade certifications without compromising compatibility in non-automotive general industrial applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can CRCW201022K1FKEF or RMCF2010FT22K1 be used as direct replacements for RC5025F2212CS?

A: Yes. Both substitute parts maintain identical resistance (22.1 kOhms), tolerance (±1%), temperature coefficient (±100ppm/°C), and package geometry (2010 / 5025 Metric). All three parts are ROHS3 compliant with MSL 1 rating and operate across -55°C to 155°C. The substitute parts feature higher power ratings (0.75W vs. 0.667W), which do not preclude substitution in applications designed for the original 0.667W specification.

Q: What is the difference in physical dimensions between the main part and substitute parts?

A: The length and width dimensions are identical across all three parts: 0.197" L × 0.098" W (5.00mm × 2.50mm). The seated height differs slightly: RC5025F2212CS measures 0.026" (0.66mm) maximum, while CRCW201022K1FKEF and RMCF2010FT22K1 measure 0.028" (0.70mm) maximum. This 0.002" (0.04mm) difference is within typical PCB assembly tolerances and does not affect mechanical compatibility.

Q: What does AEC-Q200 qualification mean for the substitute parts?

A: AEC-Q200 is an automotive industry standard qualification that specifies enhanced reliability testing and screening procedures for passive components. Both CRCW201022K1FKEF and RMCF2010FT22K1 carry this certification. In non-automotive applications, AEC-Q200 qualification represents additional quality assurance but is not required for general industrial use.

Q: Are the substitute parts available in different packaging formats?

A: The RC5025F2212CS is specified with standard packaging notation. Both substitute parts (CRCW201022K1FKEF and RMCF2010FT22K1) are supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format, which is standard for high-volume surface mount assembly. This packaging format is compatible with automated pick-and-place equipment used in PCB manufacturing.

Q: Why do the substitute parts have higher power ratings?

A: The substitute parts (CRCW201022K1FKEF and RMCF2010FT22K1) are rated for 0.75W (3/4W) compared to the original 0.667W (2/3W). This represents a higher thermal capability within the same physical package size. Higher power rating does not affect electrical performance in circuits designed for lower power dissipation and provides additional thermal margin for reliability.

Q: Are all three parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. RC5025F2212CS, CRCW201022K1FKEF, and RMCF2010FT22K1 are all ROHS3 compliant. All three parts are also REACH unaffected and classified under ECCN EAR99 for export control purposes.
