Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RCP1206B75R0GS2 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Resistance value: 75 Ohms (exact match required)
• Tolerance: ±2% (exact match required)
• Power rating: 2.4W (exact match required)
• Package: 1206 (3216 Metric) (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: Required feature (exact match required)

The identified substitute part RCP1206W75R0GEB meets all electrical and mechanical parameters. Differences in RoHS compliance status and inventory levels do not affect functional substitutability.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both RCP1206B75R0GS2 and RCP1206W75R0GEB are functionally equivalent for applications requiring 75 Ohm 2.4W 1206 chip resistors with ±2% tolerance and moisture resistance. Selection between these parts should be based on:

• RoHS compliance requirements: RCP1206W75R0GEB is ROHS3 compliant, while RCP1206B75R0GS2 is non-compliant. Applications subject to RoHS regulations must use RCP1206W75R0GEB.
• Inventory availability: RCP1206W75R0GEB has higher stock levels (7240 Pcs) compared to RCP1206B75R0GS2 (898 Pcs).
• Both parts share identical electrical performance, thermal characteristics, and mechanical dimensions, ensuring direct PCB compatibility without design modification.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RCP1206W75R0GEB be used as a direct replacement for RCP1206B75R0GS2?

A: Yes. Both parts are identical in resistance value (75 Ohms), tolerance (±2%), power rating (2.4W), package (1206), composition (thick film), temperature coefficient (±150ppm/°C), operating temperature range (-65°C ~ 155°C), and moisture resistance features. They are mechanically and electrically interchangeable.

Q: What is the difference between these two part numbers?

A: The primary difference is RoHS compliance status. RCP1206W75R0GEB is ROHS3 compliant, while RCP1206B75R0GS2 is non-compliant. All other electrical and mechanical specifications are identical.

Q: Are there any PCB layout or footprint considerations when substituting these parts?

A: No. Both parts use the same 1206 (3216 Metric) package with identical dimensions (0.122" L x 0.060" W / 3.10mm x 1.52mm) and height (0.025" / 0.64mm). PCB footprints are fully compatible without modification.

Q: Which part should I select for new designs?

A: For new designs, RCP1206W75R0GEB is the preferred choice due to ROHS3 compliance, which aligns with current regulatory requirements and environmental standards. It also offers better inventory availability.

Q: Do these parts have different moisture sensitivity requirements?

A: No. Both parts have identical Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) rating of 1 (Unlimited), indicating no special moisture handling or baking requirements during storage or assembly.
