Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the RC5025J333CS are grouped based on electrical and mechanical parameter compatibility within the 2010 package format. All substitute candidates maintain the following core parameters: 33 kOhms resistance value, 2010 (5025 Metric) package dimensions, thick film composition, ±100ppm/°C temperature coefficient, -55°C ~ 155°C operating temperature range, MSL 1 rating, and RoHS3 compliance.

Substitution logic is determined by the following allowed parameter variations:

• Tolerance: Original part specifies ±5%. Substitute parts with ±1% tolerance provide improved accuracy and are electrically compatible.
• Power Rating: Original part is rated 0.667W (2/3W). Substitute parts rated 0.75W (3/4W) provide increased power dissipation capability within the same package footprint.
• Manufacturer: Substitute parts from YAGEO (RC_L series) and Stackpole Electronics Inc (RMCF series) maintain identical electrical specifications and package compatibility.
• Certifications: RMCF2010FT33K0 includes AEC-Q200 automotive qualification, applicable for automotive applications requiring enhanced reliability standards.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

RC2010FK-0733KL (YAGEO): Select this upgrade substitute when improved tolerance specification (±1% versus ±5%) is required without introducing automotive-specific certifications. This part maintains moisture-resistant thick film construction, identical operating temperature range, and RoHS3 compliance. The increased power rating (0.75W) provides additional thermal margin in applications where the original 0.667W rating approaches design limits. Packaging is Tape & Reel format with 8407 units in stock.

RC2010JK-0733KL (YAGEO): Select this upgrade substitute when tolerance specification remains at ±5% but increased power dissipation capability (0.75W versus 0.667W) is required. This part maintains all electrical and environmental specifications of the original component while providing enhanced thermal performance. Packaging is Tape & Reel format with 7637 units in stock.

RMCF2010FT33K0 (Stackpole Electronics Inc): Select this substitute for applications requiring AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. This part provides ±1% tolerance and 0.75W power rating with automotive-grade reliability certification. All electrical parameters, operating temperature range, and RoHS3 compliance are maintained. Height-seated dimension is 0.028" (0.70mm), which is within acceptable PCB assembly tolerances for 2010 package footprints. Packaging is Tape & Reel format with 697 units in stock.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RC2010FK-0733KL or RC2010JK-0733KL be used as direct replacements for RC5025J333CS on existing PCB layouts?

A: Yes. All substitute parts maintain identical 2010 (5025 Metric) package dimensions (0.197" L x 0.098" W / 5.00mm x 2.50mm) and two-termination configuration. Height-seated dimensions are within 0.01" (0.25mm) variation, which is within standard PCB assembly tolerances for surface mount components.

Q: What is the difference between the two YAGEO upgrade options?

A: RC2010FK-0733KL provides ±1% tolerance with 0.75W power rating. RC2010JK-0733KL provides ±5% tolerance (matching the original part) with 0.75W power rating. Selection depends on whether improved tolerance accuracy is required for the application.

Q: Is RMCF2010FT33K0 suitable for non-automotive applications?

A: Yes. RMCF2010FT33K0 meets all general-purpose specifications (33 kOhms, ±1% tolerance, 0.75W power rating, -55°C ~ 155°C operating range, RoHS3 compliance). AEC-Q200 certification indicates enhanced reliability qualification but does not restrict use to automotive applications.

Q: Are all substitute parts RoHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. RC2010FK-0733KL, RC2010JK-0733KL, and RMCF2010FT33K0 are all RoHS3 compliant with MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating, matching the original RC5025J333CS specifications.

Q: What is the impact of increased power rating (0.75W versus 0.667W) on circuit performance?

A: Increased power rating does not alter electrical performance. The 33 kOhms resistance value, ±5% or ±1% tolerance, and ±100ppm/°C temperature coefficient remain unchanged. Higher power rating provides additional thermal dissipation capability, reducing junction temperature in applications where power dissipation approaches the original 0.667W specification.

Q: Can these parts be used interchangeably in high-reliability applications?

A: RC2010FK-0733KL and RC2010JK-0733KL are suitable for general high-reliability applications with RoHS3 compliance. RMCF2010FT33K0 is specifically qualified for automotive high-reliability applications through AEC-Q200 certification. Selection depends on application-specific reliability requirements and industry standards.
