RC5025F95R3CS Equivalent & Substitute Parts Reference

Part Overview

The RC5025F95R3CS is a 95.3 Ohms ±1% thick film chip resistor manufactured by Samsung Electro-Mechanics, rated at 0.667W (2/3W) in a 2010 (5025 Metric) package. This component is classified as Active product status with ROHS3 compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity level (MSL 1). The part is suitable for general-purpose applications requiring moisture-resistant thick film construction across the operating temperature range of -55°C to 155°C.

Equivalent and substitute parts are identified based on matching electrical specifications (resistance value, tolerance, power rating) and mechanical compatibility (package size, termination count, physical dimensions) while maintaining the same composition and environmental performance characteristics.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RC5025F95R3CS is determined by the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Criteria:

• Resistance value: 95.3 Ohms
• Tolerance: ±1%
• Package / Case: 2010 (5025 Metric)
• Number of Terminations: 2
• Composition: Thick Film
• Temperature Coefficient: ±100ppm/°C
• Operating Temperature Range: -55°C ~ 155°C
• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited)

Allowable Variation:

• Power Rating: The RC5025F95R3CS is rated at 0.667W (2/3W). Substitute parts with equal or higher power ratings (0.75W / 3/4W) are acceptable, as they provide equivalent or superior electrical performance within the same package envelope.
• Physical Height: Minor variations in seated height (0.66mm to 0.70mm) are acceptable within the 2010 package specification.

All identified substitute parts maintain identical electrical characteristics, mechanical compatibility, and environmental compliance with the original part.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Substitute (Upgrade Path): AC2010FK-0795R3L (YAGEO) is the recommended upgrade substitute. This part maintains Active product status, provides higher power rating (0.75W vs. 0.667W), includes automotive AEC-Q200 qualification, and offers superior inventory availability (4711 units). The increased power rating provides design margin without compromising package compatibility or electrical performance.

Secondary Substitutes (Direct Equivalents): RMCF2010FT95R3 (Stackpole Electronics Inc) is an Active product with identical specifications to AC2010FK-0795R3L, offering equivalent performance and AEC-Q200 compliance with strong inventory levels (1603 units).

Legacy Substitute (Not Recommended for New Designs): ERJ-12SF95R3U (Panasonic Electronic Components) carries "Not For New Designs" product status. While electrically and mechanically compatible, this part should not be selected for new circuit designs. Existing designs currently using this part may continue operation, but migration to AC2010FK-0795R3L or RMCF2010FT95R3 is recommended for long-term supply chain stability.

All substitute parts maintain ROHS3 compliance, MSL 1 rating, and identical environmental performance specifications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can AC2010FK-0795R3L replace RC5025F95R3CS in existing designs? A: Yes. AC2010FK-0795R3L is a direct mechanical and electrical substitute with identical package dimensions, resistance value, tolerance, and operating temperature range. The higher power rating (0.75W vs. 0.667W) provides additional design margin and is fully compatible with applications designed for the original part.

Q: What is the difference between the 0.667W and 0.75W power ratings? A: The RC5025F95R3CS is rated at 0.667W (2/3W), while substitute parts AC2010FK-0795R3L, ERJ-12SF95R3U, and RMCF2010FT95R3 are rated at 0.75W (3/4W). The higher power rating indicates greater thermal dissipation capability within the same 2010 package envelope. Substituting a higher-rated part does not degrade performance in applications designed for the lower rating.

Q: Are all substitute parts automotive-qualified? A: AC2010FK-0795R3L and RMCF2010FT95R3 carry AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. ERJ-12SF95R3U also includes AEC-Q200 qualification. The original RC5025F95R3CS does not list automotive qualification in the provided specifications. For automotive applications, AC2010FK-0795R3L or RMCF2010FT95R3 are preferred selections.

Q: Why is ERJ-12SF95R3U marked "Not For New Designs"? A: ERJ-12SF95R3U carries "Not For New Designs" product status, indicating that Panasonic has discontinued active development and promotion of this part. While existing inventory is available (1886 units) and the part remains electrically and mechanically compatible, new circuit designs should specify AC2010FK-0795R3L or RMCF2010FT95R3 to ensure long-term supply chain availability and manufacturer support.

Q: Are there physical dimension differences between substitute parts? A: All parts share identical length and width (0.197" L x 0.098" W / 5.00mm x 2.50mm). Seated height varies slightly: RC5025F95R3CS at 0.026" (0.66mm), AC2010FK-0795R3L at 0.026" (0.65mm), and both ERJ-12SF95R3U and RMCF2010FT95R3 at 0.028" (0.70mm). These variations remain within 2010 package specification tolerances and do not affect PCB assembly compatibility.

Q: Do all parts have the same moisture sensitivity level? A: Yes. RC5025F95R3CS and all substitute parts carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) rating, indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions. These parts do not require special moisture control during storage, handling, or assembly.

Q: What is the temperature coefficient specification? A: All parts, including the original RC5025F95R3CS and all substitutes, maintain a temperature coefficient of ±100ppm/°C across the operating range of -55°C to 155°C. This specification is identical across all equivalent parts.
