RC6432F2153CS Equivalent & Substitute Parts Reference

Part Overview

The RC6432F2153CS is a 215 kOhms ±1% 1W chip resistor manufactured by Samsung Electro-Mechanics in the 2512 (6432 Metric) package format. This thick film resistor is designed for general-purpose applications requiring moisture resistance and operates across the temperature range of -55°C to 155°C. The component is currently in active production status with ROHS3 compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity level (MSL 1).

Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical specifications, mechanical dimensions, and compliance certifications align with the original component, enabling direct replacement in circuit designs without functional degradation.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RC6432F2153CS is determined by strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

Electrical Specifications: Resistance value (215 kOhms), tolerance (±1%), and power rating (1W) must be identical. Temperature coefficient (±100ppm/°C) and operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 155°C) establish thermal performance boundaries.

Mechanical Compatibility: Package designation (2512 / 6432 Metric) and physical dimensions ensure PCB footprint compatibility. Termination count (2 terminations) is fixed for this category.

Compliance & Quality: ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 rating are baseline requirements. Product status (Active) confirms ongoing availability and manufacturing support.

The CRCW2512215KFKEG from Vishay Dale meets all substitution criteria while adding automotive-grade AEC-Q200 qualification, representing an equivalent or enhanced alternative for the RC6432F2153CS.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can CRCW2512215KFKEG replace RC6432F2153CS in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both components share identical resistance (215 kOhms), tolerance (±1%), power rating (1W), package (2512), temperature coefficient (±100ppm/°C), and operating range (-55°C ~ 155°C). PCB footprints are compatible. No circuit redesign is required.

Q: What is the significance of AEC-Q200 qualification on the Vishay part?

A: AEC-Q200 is an automotive industry standard for passive components. This qualification indicates the CRCW2512215KFKEG meets stricter reliability and quality requirements. The qualification does not restrict its use in non-automotive applications and represents equivalent or superior performance for general-purpose use.

Q: Are the physical dimensions identical?

A: Dimensions are equivalent within standard manufacturing tolerances. RC6432F2153CS: 6.30mm L × 3.20mm W × 0.66mm H (max). CRCW2512215KFKEG: 6.30mm L × 3.15mm W × 0.70mm H (max). Both fit the 2512 package footprint standard.

Q: Do both parts have the same moisture sensitivity rating?

A: Yes. Both components are rated MSL 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions during storage or handling.

Q: What is the difference in packaging between these parts?

A: RC6432F2153CS is supplied in standard packaging. CRCW2512215KFKEG is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format, which is standard for high-volume automated assembly. Both formats contain identical components.

Q: Are both parts ROHS3 compliant?
