Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RCS2012F5620CS is determined by strict equivalence across the following parameters:

Electrical Specifications:

• Resistance value: 562 Ohms
• Tolerance: ±1%
• Power rating: 0.125W (1/8W)
• Temperature coefficient: ±100ppm/°C
• Operating temperature range: -55°C ~ 155°C

Mechanical Specifications:

• Package type: 0805 (2012 Metric)
• Physical dimensions: 0.079" L x 0.049" W (2.00mm x 1.25mm)
• Number of terminations: 2

Compliance & Environmental:

• RoHS3 Compliant
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited)
• REACH Unaffected status

All four substitute parts listed meet these core criteria. Variations in packaging format (Tape & Reel versus Cut Tape & Digi-Reel) and minor height differences (0.020" to 0.028" seated height) do not affect electrical or functional compatibility. Additional features such as Automotive AEC-Q200 certification present in some substitutes represent enhanced qualification but do not preclude substitution.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All four substitute parts are qualified for direct replacement of the RCS2012F5620CS based on electrical and mechanical parameter equivalence. Selection among substitutes should be based on:

Availability and Supply Chain: RMCF0805FT562R (Stackpole) offers the highest inventory level at 76,825 pieces. RC0805FR-07562RL (YAGEO) provides 71,627 pieces. CRCW0805562RFKEA (Vishay Dale) and ERJ-6ENF5620V (Panasonic) offer 26,703 and 39,026 pieces respectively.

Packaging Format: RCS2012F5620CS and ERJ-6ENF5620V are supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format. CRCW0805562RFKEA and RC0805FR-07562RL are supplied in Cut Tape (CT) & Digi-Reel format. Selection depends on assembly equipment compatibility and procurement requirements.

Automotive Qualification: CRCW0805562RFKEA, ERJ-6ENF5620V, and RMCF0805FT562R carry Automotive AEC-Q200 certification. These are suitable for automotive applications requiring enhanced qualification. RC0805FR-07562RL and RCS2012F5620CS do not carry this certification but remain compliant with ROHS3 and REACH requirements.

Physical Dimensions: All parts fit within standard 0805 footprints. Seated height variations (0.020" to 0.028") are within typical PCB assembly tolerances and do not affect placement or soldering.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can CRCW0805562RFKEA replace RCS2012F5620CS in non-automotive applications?

A: Yes. Both components share identical electrical specifications (562 Ohms ±1%, 0.125W, ±100ppm/°C, -55°C ~ 155°C operating range) and mechanical package (0805 2012 Metric). The Automotive AEC-Q200 certification on CRCW0805562RFKEA represents additional qualification that does not restrict use in general-purpose applications.

Q: What is the impact of different packaging formats (Tape & Reel versus Cut Tape & Digi-Reel)?

A: Packaging format affects procurement and assembly logistics but not component performance. Tape & Reel format is optimized for high-volume automated assembly. Cut Tape & Digi-Reel format provides flexibility for lower-volume or mixed-component assembly. Electrical and mechanical specifications remain identical.

Q: Are the seated height differences between substitute parts significant?

A: No. Seated height variations range from 0.020" (0.50mm) to 0.028" (0.70mm). These differences fall within standard PCB assembly tolerances and do not affect component placement, soldering, or circuit performance in standard 0805 footprints.

Q: Do all substitute parts meet the same environmental compliance standards?

A: Yes. All five parts (RCS2012F5620CS, CRCW0805562RFKEA, ERJ-6ENF5620V, RC0805FR-07562RL, and RMCF0805FT562R) are ROHS3 Compliant, REACH Unaffected, and classified as Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited). Compliance certifications are equivalent across all options.

Q: Which substitute part offers the best availability?

A: RMCF0805FT562R (Stackpole Electronics) provides the highest inventory at 76,825 pieces in stock, followed by RC0805FR-07562RL (YAGEO) at 71,627 pieces. Both are suitable for immediate procurement requirements.

Q: Can ERJ-6ENF5620V be used in applications where anti-sulfur properties are required?

A: The provided specifications for ERJ-6ENF5620V do not explicitly list anti-sulfur features. RCS2012F5620CS and RC0805FR-07562RL both specify moisture-resistant construction. For applications requiring confirmed anti-sulfur properties, consult manufacturer datasheets or contact component suppliers directly.
