RC5025F8252CS

Part Overview

The RC5025F8252CS is a 82.5 kOhms ±1% thick film chip resistor rated at 0.667W (2/3W) in a 2010 (5025 Metric) package manufactured by Samsung Electro-Mechanics. This component is actively produced and designed for applications requiring stable resistance values with moisture resistance in compact surface-mount form factors. Substitutes are necessary when addressing design constraints such as higher power ratings, automotive qualification requirements, or specific supplier availability.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility is determined by strict conformance to the following electrical and mechanical parameters:

• Resistance Value: Must be 82.5 kOhms
• Tolerance: Must be ±1%
• Package / Case: Must be 2010 (5025 Metric)
• Composition: Must be Thick Film
• Temperature Coefficient: Must be ±100ppm/°C
• Operating Temperature Range: Must span -55°C to 155°C
• RoHS Compliance: Must be ROHS3 Compliant
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: Must be 1 (Unlimited)

The ERJ-12SF8252U satisfies all electrical and mechanical substitution criteria. While it features a higher power rating of 0.75W (3/4W) compared to the 0.667W rating of the RC5025F8252CS, it operates within the same package, maintains equivalent resistance tolerance, and shares identical temperature characteristics. The increased power capability represents an enhancement rather than a limitation for substitution purposes.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The RC5025F8252CS is recommended for new designs requiring 82.5 kOhms ±1% resistance in a 2010 package, as it maintains Active product status with guaranteed long-term availability.

The ERJ-12SF8252U serves as a viable electrical equivalent with increased power dissipation capability. However, this substitute carries a "Not For New Designs" designation and includes AEC-Q200 automotive qualification that exceeds standard industrial requirements. Selection of the ERJ-12SF8252U is appropriate only when the main part is unavailable or when automotive-grade reliability is explicitly required by design specifications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the ERJ-12SF8252U be used in place of the RC5025F8252CS? A: The ERJ-12SF8252U is electrically and mechanically compatible as a substitute. Both components share identical resistance values, tolerances, operating temperature ranges, and package specifications. The higher 0.75W power rating of the ERJ-12SF8252U does not restrict compatibility.

Q: What is the significance of the "Not For New Designs" status for the ERJ-12SF8252U? A: This designation indicates that Panasonic Electronic Components is not recommending this part for new product development. It remains available for existing designs or as a temporary replacement solution, but the RC5025F8252CS should be prioritized for new applications due to its Active status.

Q: Are there physical dimension differences between these parts? A: Both components conform to the 2010 (5025 Metric) package specification with identical length and width of 0.197" L x 0.098" W (5.00mm x 2.50mm). The ERJ-12SF8252U has a maximum seated height of 0.028" (0.70mm) compared to 0.026" (0.66mm) for the RC5025F8252CS. This minor difference is negligible for PCB layout considerations.

Q: What does the AEC-Q200 rating on the ERJ-12SF8252U indicate? A: AEC-Q200 is an automotive qualification standard that certifies the component meets automotive industry reliability and performance requirements. While the RC5025F8252CS does not carry this designation, the ERJ-12SF8252U can be used in automotive applications if such qualification is mandated by design specifications.

Q: Do both parts have the same RoHS and MSL compliance? A: Both components are ROHS3 compliant with Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited), indicating full regulatory compliance and unlimited shelf life without moisture sensitivity concerns.
