RCS2012F23R7CS Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The RCS2012F23R7CS is a 23.7 Ohm ±1% thick film chip resistor manufactured by Samsung Electro-Mechanics, rated at 0.125W (1/8W) in 0805 (2012 Metric) package format. This component is classified as Active product status with anti-sulfur and moisture-resistant characteristics. Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical specifications, mechanical dimensions, and compliance certifications align with the original component, enabling direct replacement in circuit applications without design modification.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RCS2012F23R7CS is determined by strict equivalence across the following parameters: resistance value (23.7 Ohms), tolerance (±1%), power rating (0.125W), package format (0805 / 2012 Metric), composition (thick film), temperature coefficient (±100ppm/°C), operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 155°C), and compliance certifications (ROHS3, MSL 1). All identified substitute parts meet these electrical and mechanical criteria. Variations in physical height and specific feature sets (anti-sulfur vs. automotive AEC-Q200 qualification) do not disqualify substitution when core parameters remain identical.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All four components listed—RCS2012F23R7CS (Samsung Electro-Mechanics), CRCW080523R7FKEA (Vishay Dale), ERJ-6ENF23R7V (Panasonic Electronic Components), and RC0805FR-0723R7L (YAGEO)—are Active product status with ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 rating. Selection among these parts is determined by application-specific requirements and supply chain availability. The Vishay Dale CRCW080523R7FKEA and Panasonic ERJ-6ENF23R7V variants include automotive AEC-Q200 qualification, suitable for automotive and high-reliability applications. The Samsung RCS2012F23R7CS and YAGEO RC0805FR-0723R7L variants feature moisture-resistant characteristics without automotive-specific qualification. Physical height variations (0.50mm to 0.70mm) are within standard PCB assembly tolerances for 0805 packages and do not restrict substitution in standard applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can CRCW080523R7FKEA replace RCS2012F23R7CS in all applications?

A: Yes. Both components share identical electrical specifications (23.7 Ohms ±1%, 0.125W, ±100ppm/°C, -55°C ~ 155°C), package format (0805), composition (thick film), and compliance certifications (ROHS3, MSL 1). The CRCW080523R7FKEA includes additional AEC-Q200 automotive qualification, which does not restrict its use in non-automotive applications.

Q: What is the significance of the height difference between substitute parts?

A: Height variations (0.50mm to 0.70mm) among 0805 package resistors fall within standard manufacturing tolerances and PCB assembly specifications. These differences do not affect electrical performance or mechanical compatibility in standard surface-mount applications.

Q: Are all substitute parts ROHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. All four components—RCS2012F23R7CS, CRCW080523R7FKEA, ERJ-6ENF23R7V, and RC0805FR-0723R7L—are ROHS3 compliant with MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity level.

Q: What distinguishes automotive-qualified variants from standard variants?

A: CRCW080523R7FKEA and ERJ-6ENF23R7V carry AEC-Q200 automotive qualification, indicating compliance with automotive reliability and environmental testing standards. Standard variants (Samsung RCS2012F23R7CS and YAGEO RC0805FR-0723R7L) do not carry this designation but remain suitable for general industrial and consumer applications.

Q: Can these parts be used interchangeably on the same PCB assembly?

A: Yes. All substitute parts conform to identical 0805 (2012 Metric) package specifications, electrical parameters, and compliance requirements, enabling direct substitution without PCB redesign or assembly process modification.
