RCP2512W100RGEC Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The RCP2512W100RGEC is a 100 Ohms ±2% 4.6W chip resistor in 2512 (6432 Metric) package manufactured by Vishay Dale. This thick film, moisture-resistant SMD resistor is designed for high-power applications requiring reliable performance across industrial temperature ranges. The part is currently active in production and widely available in tape and reel packaging for automated assembly processes.

Substitute parts are identified when component availability is limited, supply chain disruptions occur, or inventory requirements necessitate alternative sourcing from the same manufacturer's product line.
