RC5025F86R6CS Equivalent & Substitute Parts Reference

Part Overview

The RC5025F86R6CS is a 86.6 Ohm ±1% thick film chip resistor manufactured by Samsung Electro-Mechanics in the 2010 (5025 Metric) package format with a power rating of 0.667W (2/3W). This component is classified as Active product status and features moisture-resistant construction suitable for general industrial applications. The part is ROHS3 compliant with MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating.

Substitute parts are identified when equivalent resistance values, tolerance specifications, package dimensions, and thermal operating ranges align with the original component, enabling direct functional replacement in circuit designs.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the RC5025F86R6CS are qualified based on the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Criteria:

• Resistance value: 86.6 Ohms
• Tolerance: ±1%
• Package format: 2010 (5025 Metric)
• Composition: Thick Film
• Temperature coefficient: ±100ppm/°C
• Operating temperature range: -55°C ~ 155°C
• RoHS3 compliance
• MSL 1 rating

Allowable Variation:

• Power rating may exceed the original 0.667W specification, as higher power-rated components in the same package are functionally compatible for applications requiring the original power level or less.

Two substitute parts meet these criteria with power ratings of 0.75W (3/4W), providing enhanced thermal margin while maintaining all other electrical and mechanical specifications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

CRCW201086R6FKEF (Vishay Dale) is the primary substitute option. This part maintains Active product status with full ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 rating. The 0.75W power rating provides increased thermal headroom compared to the original 0.667W specification while maintaining identical electrical characteristics and package dimensions. Automotive AEC-Q200 qualification provides additional reliability assurance for demanding applications.

ERJ-12SF86R6U (Panasonic Electronic Components) is a secondary substitute option. While this part meets all electrical and mechanical specifications with equivalent 0.75W power rating and AEC-Q200 qualification, it carries a "Not For New Designs" product status designation. This part remains suitable for replacement and maintenance applications but should not be selected for new circuit designs where active-status alternatives are available.

Both substitute parts accommodate the original RC5025F86R6CS footprint and electrical requirements. Selection between them should prioritize the Vishay Dale CRCW201086R6FKEF for new designs due to its Active product status.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can CRCW201086R6FKEF replace RC5025F86R6CS in existing designs?

A: Yes. The CRCW201086R6FKEF provides direct functional replacement. Both parts share identical resistance (86.6 Ohms), tolerance (±1%), package format (2010/5025 Metric), temperature coefficient (±100ppm/°C), and operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 155°C). The higher power rating (0.75W vs. 0.667W) is compatible with applications designed for the original part.

Q: What is the significance of the "Not For New Designs" status on ERJ-12SF86R6U?

A: This designation indicates the Panasonic ERJ-12SF86R6U is in mature or declining production phase. While the part remains functionally equivalent and suitable for replacement applications, Panasonic recommends using alternative parts for new circuit designs. The Vishay Dale CRCW201086R6FKEF with Active status is the preferred choice for new designs.

Q: Are there physical compatibility concerns between these parts?

A: Physical compatibility is maintained across all three parts. All use the 2010 (5025 Metric) package with identical length (0.197" / 5.00mm) and width (0.098" / 2.50mm). Maximum seated heights differ slightly (0.026" for RC5025F86R6CS versus 0.028" for both substitutes), but this 0.002" (0.04mm) difference does not create PCB assembly or clearance issues in standard applications.

Q: Does the higher power rating of substitute parts affect circuit performance?

A: No. Higher power-rated components in the same package are functionally transparent to circuit operation. The 0.75W rating of substitute parts simply indicates greater thermal capacity. Circuits designed for 0.667W operation will function identically with 0.75W-rated components.

Q: Are all three parts RoHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. RC5025F86R6CS, CRCW201086R6FKEF, and ERJ-12SF86R6U are all ROHS3 compliant with MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating, ensuring compatibility with modern manufacturing and environmental standards.
