RCP1206W1K00JS6 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The RCP1206W1K00JS6 is a 1 kOhms ±5% 2.4W chip resistor in 1206 (3216 Metric) package manufactured by Vishay Dale. This thick film, moisture-resistant component operates across -65°C to 155°C and is currently in active production status. Substitute parts are identified to address specific application requirements such as improved tolerance specifications or packaging format preferences while maintaining core electrical and mechanical compatibility.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RCP1206W1K00JS6 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Resistance Value: Must be 1 kOhms
• Power Rating: Must be 2.4W minimum
• Package / Case: Must be 1206 (3216 Metric)
• Composition: Must be Thick Film
• Temperature Coefficient: Must be ±150ppm/°C
• Operating Temperature Range: Must be -65°C ~ 155°C
• Features: Must include Moisture Resistant
• Number of Terminations: Must be 2
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: Must be 1 (Unlimited)

The RCP1206W1K00GEB qualifies as a substitute part. While it maintains identical electrical performance in resistance, power rating, and thermal characteristics, it offers improved tolerance specification (±2% versus ±5%) and different packaging format (Cut Tape versus Tape & Reel).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the RCP1206W1K00JS6 and RCP1206W1K00GEB are active production components from Vishay Dale with identical core electrical specifications. Selection between these parts depends on specific application requirements:

The RCP1206W1K00GEB offers ROHS3 compliance, making it suitable for applications subject to RoHS regulations. The RCP1206W1K00JS6 is RoHS non-compliant and appropriate for applications without such regulatory constraints.

Tolerance selection should be based on circuit design requirements. The RCP1206W1K00GEB provides ±2% tolerance for applications requiring tighter resistance accuracy, while the RCP1206W1K00JS6 with ±5% tolerance is suitable for general-purpose applications with broader tolerance margins.

Packaging format differs between the two parts: Tape & Reel (TR) for the RCP1206W1K00JS6 supports high-volume automated assembly, while Cut Tape (CT) for the RCP1206W1K00GEB accommodates lower-volume or mixed-component requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RCP1206W1K00GEB replace RCP1206W1K00JS6 in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical resistance value (1 kOhms), power rating (2.4W), package dimensions (1206/3216 Metric), thermal characteristics (±150ppm/°C, -65°C ~ 155°C), and moisture resistance features. The RCP1206W1K00GEB provides improved tolerance (±2% versus ±5%) and ROHS3 compliance.

Q: What are the key differences between these substitute parts?

A: The primary differences are tolerance specification (±2% versus ±5%), RoHS compliance status (ROHS3 Compliant versus non-compliant), and packaging format (Cut Tape versus Tape & Reel). Electrical performance and thermal behavior remain identical.

Q: Does packaging format affect electrical performance?

A: No. Tape & Reel (TR) and Cut Tape (CT) packaging formats do not affect component electrical characteristics. Packaging selection is determined by assembly process requirements and volume considerations.

Q: Are both parts suitable for the same operating temperature range?

A: Yes. Both the RCP1206W1K00JS6 and RCP1206W1K00GEB operate across -65°C to 155°C with identical temperature coefficient specifications (±150ppm/°C).

Q: Which part should be selected for RoHS-regulated applications?

A: The RCP1206W1K00GEB is ROHS3 compliant and must be used for applications subject to RoHS regulations. The RCP1206W1K00JS6 is RoHS non-compliant and is not suitable for such applications.
