Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of RCP1206B10R0GS2 is based on the following critical parameters that must remain constant:

  • Resistance value: 10 Ohms
  • Tolerance: ±2%
  • Power rating: 2.4W
  • Package type: 1206 (3216 Metric)
  • Composition: Thick Film
  • Temperature coefficient: ±150ppm/°C
  • Operating temperature range: -65°C ~ 155°C
  • Moisture sensitivity level: 1 (Unlimited)

The primary difference between the main part and its substitute is the packaging format (Tape & Reel versus Cut Tape) and RoHS compliance status. Both parts are manufactured by Vishay Dale within the RCP series and maintain identical electrical and mechanical performance characteristics.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

RCP1206W10R0GEB serves as a direct electrical and mechanical substitute for RCP1206B10R0GS2. Selection between these parts should be based on:

Packaging Format Requirements: RCP1206B10R0GS2 is supplied in Tape & Reel format suitable for automated assembly processes. RCP1206W10R0GEB is supplied in Cut Tape format, appropriate for manual assembly or lower-volume applications.

Compliance Requirements: RCP1206W10R0GEB carries ROHS3 compliance certification, while RCP1206B10R0GS2 is RoHS non-compliant. Applications subject to RoHS regulatory requirements must use RCP1206W10R0GEB.

Inventory Availability: Both parts maintain Active product status. RCP1206W10R0GEB shows higher inventory availability (4981 Pcs) compared to RCP1206B10R0GS2 (725 Pcs).

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RCP1206W10R0GEB replace RCP1206B10R0GS2 in my circuit design?

A: Yes. Both parts are electrically and mechanically identical. They share the same resistance value (10 Ohms), tolerance (±2%), power rating (2.4W), package dimensions (1206), temperature coefficient (±150ppm/°C), and operating temperature range (-65°C ~ 155°C). The difference is packaging format and RoHS compliance status.

Q: What is the difference between Tape & Reel and Cut Tape packaging?

A: Tape & Reel (TR) packaging supplies components on continuous tape wound on reels, optimized for high-speed automated pick-and-place assembly. Cut Tape (CT) packaging supplies components on tape segments, suitable for manual assembly or lower-volume production runs.

Q: Which part should I select if my application requires RoHS compliance?

A: RCP1206W10R0GEB is ROHS3 compliant and must be used for applications subject to RoHS regulatory requirements. RCP1206B10R0GS2 is RoHS non-compliant.

Q: Are the physical dimensions identical between these parts?

A: Yes. Both parts have identical dimensions: 0.122" L x 0.060" W (3.10mm x 1.52mm) with maximum seated height of 0.025" (0.64mm). They are mechanically interchangeable on PCB layouts.

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

A: Yes. Both parts carry Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions during storage or handling.
