Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the RCP1206B200RJS2 is determined by strict equivalence in the following parameters:

• Resistance value: 200 Ohms (exact match required)
• Package / Case: 1206 (3216 Metric) (exact match required)
• Power rating: 2.4W (exact match required)
• Composition: Thick Film (exact match required)
• Temperature coefficient: ±150ppm/°C (exact match required)
• Operating temperature range: -65°C ~ 155°C (exact match required)
• Moisture resistance feature: Required

Tolerance and RoHS compliance status are permitted to vary within substitute parts, provided all other electrical and mechanical parameters remain equivalent. The RCP1206W200RGEB qualifies as a direct substitute based on these criteria.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The RCP1206W200RGEB serves as a direct functional substitute for the RCP1206B200RJS2 in applications where component specifications are equivalent. The substitute part offers improved tolerance specification (±2% versus ±5%), which provides tighter resistance accuracy without altering circuit performance requirements.

The RCP1206W200RGEB achieves ROHS3 compliance, whereas the RCP1206B200RJS2 is RoHS non-compliant. Selection between these parts should be based on regulatory and procurement requirements applicable to the end application. Both parts maintain identical electrical performance, thermal characteristics, and physical dimensions.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RCP1206W200RGEB replace RCP1206B200RJS2 in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical resistance value, power rating, package dimensions, temperature coefficient, and operating temperature range. The substitute part is mechanically and electrically interchangeable.

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

A: The main part RCP1206B200RJS2 has ±5% tolerance, while the substitute RCP1206W200RGEB has ±2% tolerance. The tighter tolerance of the substitute part does not create incompatibility; it provides improved accuracy.

Q: Are there any package or footprint differences?

A: No. Both parts use the 1206 (3216 Metric) package with identical dimensions of 0.122" L x 0.060" W (3.10mm x 1.52mm) and maximum seated height of 0.025" (0.64mm). PCB footprints are identical.

Q: What is the significance of RoHS compliance difference?

A: RCP1206B200RJS2 is RoHS non-compliant, while RCP1206W200RGEB is ROHS3 compliant. Selection depends on regulatory requirements for the end product and regional restrictions on hazardous substances in electronics manufacturing.

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

A: Yes. Both parts feature moisture resistance and carry Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited), indicating no special moisture handling requirements during storage or assembly.

Q: Are the temperature coefficients identical?

A: Yes. Both parts have a temperature coefficient of ±150ppm/°C and operate across the same temperature range of -65°C to 155°C.
