Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RCS2012F6984CS is determined by the following critical parameters:

Electrical Specifications: Resistance value (6.98 MOhms), tolerance (±1%), power rating (0.125W), and temperature coefficient (±100ppm/°C) must match exactly.

Mechanical Compatibility: Package type (0805/2012 Metric), physical dimensions (0.079" L x 0.049" W), and termination count (2) must be identical to ensure PCB footprint compatibility.

Environmental & Compliance: Operating temperature range (-55°C to 155°C), moisture sensitivity level (MSL 1), RoHS3 compliance, and REACH status must be equivalent or superior.

Composition: Thick film construction is required for this application category.

The CRCW08056M98FKEA from Vishay Dale meets all substitution criteria while adding automotive AEC-Q200 qualification.
