RCS2012F4644CS Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The RCS2012F4644CS is a 4.64 MOhms ±1% 0.125W chip resistor in 0805 (2012 Metric) package manufactured by Samsung Electro-Mechanics. This thick film resistor features anti-sulfur and moisture-resistant properties, operating across -55°C to 155°C with a temperature coefficient of ±100ppm/°C. The part is Active status and ROHS3 compliant with MSL 1 rating. Equivalent and substitute parts are identified when identical electrical specifications and mechanical compatibility are maintained across the same package footprint and performance envelope.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the RCS2012F4644CS are qualified based on strict electrical and mechanical parameter matching:

Substitution Criteria:

• Resistance value: 4.64 MOhms (exact match required)
• Tolerance: ±1% (exact match required)
• Power rating: 0.125W / 1/8W (exact match required)
• Package: 0805 (2012 Metric) (exact match required)
• Composition: Thick Film (exact match required)
• Temperature coefficient: ±100ppm/°C (exact match required)
• Operating temperature range: -55°C ~ 155°C (exact match required)
• RoHS compliance: ROHS3 (minimum requirement)
• Moisture sensitivity: MSL 1 (exact match required)

All identified substitute parts meet these criteria and are therefore electrically and mechanically interchangeable in applications designed for the RCS2012F4644CS.
