Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can CRCW201048R7FKEF replace RC5025F48R7CS in new designs? A: Yes. Both components share identical electrical specifications (48.7 Ohms ±1%, ±100ppm/°C, -55°C ~ 155°C), mechanical dimensions (2010 package, 5.00mm x 2.50mm), and compliance ratings (ROHS3, MSL 1). The CRCW201048R7FKEF has a higher power rating (0.75W vs. 0.667W), which is compatible with circuits designed for the original component.

Q: What is the difference between the substitute parts? A: Both CRCW201048R7FKEF and ERJ-12SF48R7U meet the electrical and mechanical requirements of RC5025F48R7CS. The primary difference is product status: CRCW201048R7FKEF is Active, while ERJ-12SF48R7U is Not For New Designs. Both carry AEC-Q200 automotive qualification.

Q: Are there height differences between these parts? A: Yes. RC5025F48R7CS has a maximum seated height of 0.026" (0.66mm), while both CRCW201048R7FKEF and ERJ-12SF48R7U have a maximum seated height of 0.028" (0.70mm). This 0.002" (0.04mm) difference is within typical PCB assembly tolerances and does not affect functional compatibility.

Q: Can ERJ-12SF48R7U be used in new designs? A: No. ERJ-12SF48R7U carries a "Not For New Designs" status. It is suitable only for legacy design support, field replacements, and maintenance of existing products.

Q: Are all three parts RoHS3 compliant? A: Yes. RC5025F48R7CS, CRCW201048R7FKEF, and ERJ-12SF48R7U are all ROHS3 compliant with Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited).

Q: What does Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 mean? A: MSL 1 indicates unlimited shelf life without special moisture control measures. These components do not require dry-pack storage or baking procedures prior to assembly.
