Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the RC5025F8253CS are qualified based on the following criteria:

Electrical Compatibility:

• Resistance value: 825 kOhms (exact match)
• Tolerance: ±1% (exact match)
• Temperature coefficient: ±100ppm/°C (exact match)
• Operating temperature range: -55°C to 155°C (exact match)

Mechanical Compatibility:

• Package type: 2010 (5025 Metric) (exact match)
• Physical dimensions: 0.197" L x 0.098" W (5.00mm x 2.50mm) (exact match)
• Composition: Thick Film (exact match)

Regulatory Compliance:

• RoHS3 Compliant
• Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited)

Power Rating Consideration: Substitute parts rated at 0.75W (3/4W) exceed the original 0.667W (2/3W) specification and are electrically compatible for direct substitution in applications where the original power rating is sufficient. Higher power-rated components do not degrade performance in circuits designed for lower power dissipation.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Substitutes (Active Product Status):

CRCW2010825KFKEF (Vishay Dale) and RMCF2010FT825K (Stackpole Electronics Inc) are recommended as primary substitutes. Both components maintain Active product status, ensuring long-term availability and manufacturing support. Both are AEC-Q200 automotive-qualified, providing additional reliability assurance for demanding applications.

Secondary Substitute (Legacy Status):

ERJ-12SF8253U (Panasonic Electronic Components) is classified as Not For New Designs. This component is electrically and mechanically compatible but should not be selected for new circuit designs due to its discontinued design status. Use only when existing inventory must be maintained or for repair/rework of legacy assemblies.

Power Rating Consideration:

All substitute parts are rated at 0.75W (3/4W), exceeding the original 0.667W (2/3W) specification. This higher rating provides additional thermal margin and is compatible with circuits designed for the original component. No derating or circuit modification is required.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can CRCW2010825KFKEF replace RC5025F8253CS directly?

A: Yes. Both components share identical electrical specifications (825 kOhms ±1%, ±100ppm/°C), mechanical dimensions (2010 package, 5.00mm x 2.50mm), and operating temperature range (-55°C to 155°C). The CRCW2010825KFKEF has a higher power rating (0.75W vs 0.667W), which does not affect compatibility in applications designed for the original component.

Q: What is the difference between the substitute parts?

A: All three substitutes meet the same electrical and mechanical requirements. The primary differences are manufacturer identity and product status. CRCW2010825KFKEF and RMCF2010FT825K maintain Active status. ERJ-12SF8253U is classified as Not For New Designs and should be avoided for new applications.

Q: Are the substitute parts automotive-qualified?

A: CRCW2010825KFKEF and RMCF2010FT825K both carry AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. The original RC5025F8253CS does not specify automotive qualification. If automotive compliance is required, select CRCW2010825KFKEF or RMCF2010FT825K.

Q: Can I use a substitute part with higher power rating?

A: Yes. The substitute parts rated at 0.75W (3/4W) are compatible with circuits designed for 0.667W (2/3W) components. Higher power ratings provide additional thermal margin and do not degrade circuit performance.

Q: Are all parts RoHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. The main part and all substitute parts are ROHS3 Compliant with Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited), meeting current environmental and regulatory requirements.

Q: Which substitute should I select for new designs?

A: For new designs, select either CRCW2010825KFKEF (Vishay Dale) or RMCF2010FT825K (Stackpole Electronics Inc). Both maintain Active product status and provide long-term supply assurance. If automotive qualification is required, either part is suitable.
