Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RC6432F1963CS is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Electrical Equivalence Requirements:

• Resistance value: 196 kOhms (exact match)
• Tolerance: ±1% (exact match)
• Power rating: 1W (exact match)
• Temperature coefficient: ±100ppm/°C (exact match)
• Operating temperature range: -55°C ~ 155°C (exact match)

Mechanical Equivalence Requirements:

• Package format: 2512 (6432 Metric) (exact match)
• Composition: Thick Film (exact match)
• Number of terminations: 2 (exact match)

Compliance Requirements:

• RoHS3 Compliant status (required)
• Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (required)

The CRCW2512196KFKEG manufactured by Vishay Dale satisfies all electrical, mechanical, and compliance criteria. This substitute maintains identical resistance, tolerance, power rating, temperature coefficient, and operating temperature specifications. The 2512 package format and thick film composition are identical. Both parts are RoHS3 compliant with MSL 1 rating. The substitute includes automotive AEC-Q200 certification, which represents an additional qualification level beyond the base specification.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the RC6432F1963CS and CRCW2512196KFKEG are Active products with full RoHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status. Selection between these parts should be based on the following criteria:

RC6432F1963CS Selection:

• Primary choice when Samsung Electro-Mechanics supply chain is preferred
• Applications requiring moisture-resistant thick film composition without automotive qualification
• Standard industrial applications within the specified temperature and power parameters

CRCW2512196KFKEG Selection:

• Primary choice when Vishay Dale supply chain is preferred
• Applications requiring automotive AEC-Q200 qualification
• Applications where additional automotive-grade reliability documentation is required
• Situations where higher inventory availability (2434 units) is advantageous

Both parts are mechanically compatible within the 2512 package format. Dimensional variations (width 0.126" vs 0.124", height 0.026" vs 0.028") are within standard PCB design tolerances for this package class. Both parts maintain identical electrical performance across the specified operating temperature range and are suitable for direct substitution in circuit designs.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
