Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RCP1206B200RGED is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Resistance value: 200 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 resistance feature
• RoHS3 compliance

The substitute part RCP1206W200RGEB meets all these criteria and is manufactured by the same supplier (Vishay Dale) within the same RCP series, confirming direct interchangeability.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both RCP1206B200RGED and RCP1206W200RGEB are Active status components manufactured by Vishay Dale with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Selection between these parts may be based on inventory availability and lead time considerations. The RCP1206W200RGEB currently maintains higher stock levels (1771 Pcs) compared to RCP1206B200RGED (629 Pcs). Both components satisfy ROHS3 compliance requirements and MSL 1 moisture sensitivity classification, ensuring compatibility in regulated and moisture-sensitive applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RCP1206W200RGEB be used as a direct replacement for RCP1206B200RGED?

A: Yes. Both components share identical electrical specifications (200 Ohms ±2%, 2.4W), mechanical dimensions (1206 package), composition (thick film), temperature characteristics (±150ppm/°C, -65°C ~ 155°C), and compliance certifications (ROHS3, MSL 1). Direct substitution is supported without circuit redesign.

Q: What determines substitution eligibility for this resistor category?

A: Substitution requires matching resistance value, tolerance, power rating, package type, composition, temperature coefficient, operating temperature range, moisture resistance feature, and RoHS compliance status. Deviation in any of these parameters disqualifies a part from direct substitution.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these substitute parts?

A: Both parts are supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) packaging with identical 1206 (3216 Metric) case dimensions: 0.122" L x 0.060" W (3.10mm x 1.52mm) with maximum seated height of 0.025" (0.64mm). Packaging format and physical footprint are identical.

Q: What is the significance of MSL 1 rating for these components?

A: MSL 1 (Unlimited) indicates these components have unlimited shelf life and require no special moisture control during storage or handling. This classification applies to both the main part and substitute, confirming equivalent environmental robustness.
