RC5025F911CS Equivalent & Substitute Parts Reference

Part Overview

The RC5025F911CS is a 910 Ohms ±1% thick film chip resistor manufactured by Samsung Electro-Mechanics, rated at 0.667W (2/3W) power dissipation in a 2010 (5025 Metric) package. This component is classified as Active product status with full RoHS3 compliance and MSL Level 1 moisture sensitivity rating. Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical specifications and mechanical compatibility are required due to inventory constraints, supply chain considerations, or application-specific requirements within the allowed parameter tolerance.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RC5025F911CS is determined by strict adherence to the following criteria:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Resistance value: 910 Ohms (exact match required)
• Tolerance: ±1% (exact match required)
• Package: 2010 (5025 Metric) (exact match required)
• Composition: Thick Film (exact match required)
• Temperature Coefficient: ±100ppm/°C (exact match required)
• Operating Temperature Range: -55°C to +155°C (exact match required)
• Moisture Resistance: Required (exact match required)
• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant (exact match required)
• MSL Rating: Level 1 (exact match required)

Allowable Variation Parameters:

• Power Rating: Substitute parts may exceed the 0.667W minimum specification. Higher power ratings provide additional thermal margin and are electrically compatible in applications designed for the original part.
• Manufacturer: Different manufacturers permitted when all electrical and mechanical parameters align.
• Packaging Format: Tape & Reel (TR) or alternative packaging formats are compatible with the original component specification.

The RC2010FK-07910RL qualifies as a valid substitute based on these criteria.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

RC5025F911CS (Samsung Electro-Mechanics) remains the primary component choice when Samsung supply chain availability and established procurement relationships are prioritized. Active product status confirms ongoing manufacturing support and supply continuity.

RC2010FK-07910RL (YAGEO) is a qualified substitute when the following conditions apply:

• Samsung RC5025F911CS inventory is unavailable or lead times exceed project requirements
• Application thermal design permits the higher 0.75W power rating without performance degradation
• YAGEO supply chain and logistics align with procurement timelines
• Both components maintain identical RoHS3 and REACH compliance status, ensuring regulatory equivalence

Both parts are Active status products with full RoHS3 compliance and MSL Level 1 rating, confirming long-term availability and environmental regulatory alignment. The 0.083W power rating increase in the YAGEO substitute (0.75W versus 0.667W) provides additional thermal margin and does not introduce compatibility constraints in standard circuit applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RC2010FK-07910RL replace RC5025F911CS in all applications?

A: Yes, within the specified electrical and mechanical parameters. The YAGEO RC2010FK-07910RL provides identical resistance value (910 Ohms), tolerance (±1%), temperature coefficient (±100ppm/°C), operating temperature range (-55°C to +155°C), and package dimensions (2010/5025 Metric). The higher power rating (0.75W versus 0.667W) is compatible with applications designed for the original part.

Q: What is the significance of the power rating difference between these parts?

A: The RC2010FK-07910RL is rated at 0.75W compared to the RC5025F911CS at 0.667W. This 0.083W increase represents additional thermal dissipation capability. In circuit applications, the substitute part can safely handle the same or greater power dissipation without exceeding temperature limits. No circuit redesign is required.

Q: Are the physical dimensions identical?

A: Yes. Both components use the 2010 (5025 Metric) package with dimensions of 0.197" L x 0.098" W (5.00mm x 2.50mm). Maximum seated height is 0.026" (0.66mm for Samsung, 0.65mm for YAGEO), representing negligible variation within standard PCB assembly tolerances.

Q: Do both parts meet the same regulatory requirements?

A: Yes. Both RC5025F911CS and RC2010FK-07910RL are ROHS3 Compliant, REACH Unaffected, and classified as MSL Level 1 (Unlimited moisture sensitivity). Regulatory and environmental compliance is equivalent.

Q: What packaging formats are available for these parts?

A: RC5025F911CS is available in standard packaging format. RC2010FK-07910RL is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format. Both formats are compatible with standard PCB assembly processes and component placement equipment.

Q: Are both parts currently in active production?

A: Yes. Both RC5025F911CS (Samsung Electro-Mechanics) and RC2010FK-07910RL (YAGEO) maintain Active product status, confirming ongoing manufacturing and supply availability.
