Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RCS2012F8874CS is determined by strict equivalence across the following parameters:

Critical Matching Parameters:

• Resistance value: 8.87 MOhms
• Tolerance: ±1%
• Power rating: 0.125W (1/8W)
• Package format: 0805 (2012 Metric)
• Composition: Thick Film
• Temperature coefficient: ±100ppm/°C
• Operating temperature range: -55°C ~ 155°C
• Moisture sensitivity level: 1 (Unlimited)
• RoHS compliance: ROHS3 Compliant

The CRCW08058M87FKEA from Vishay Dale meets all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. Differences in physical height (seated) and additional automotive certification do not affect functional substitution in standard applications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the RCS2012F8874CS and CRCW08058M87FKEA are Active status components with ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status. Selection between these parts is based on availability and supply chain requirements rather than electrical or mechanical performance differences.

The CRCW08058M87FKEA includes AEC-Q200 automotive qualification, which provides additional reliability assurance for applications requiring automotive-grade components. The Samsung RCS2012F8874CS includes anti-sulfur and moisture-resistant features specific to its design.

Both components are suitable for direct substitution in standard circuit applications where the 0805 package footprint and specified electrical parameters are required.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can CRCW08058M87FKEA replace RCS2012F8874CS in any application?

A: Yes, the CRCW08058M87FKEA is electrically and mechanically equivalent. Both components share identical resistance, tolerance, power rating, package format, temperature coefficient, and operating temperature range. The height difference (0.66mm vs 0.50mm seated) is within standard PCB assembly tolerances for 0805 components.

Q: What is the significance of the ±1% tolerance specification?

A: The ±1% tolerance indicates the maximum deviation of the actual resistance value from the nominal 8.87 MOhms specification. Both parts maintain this tolerance across the operating temperature range, ensuring consistent circuit performance.

Q: Are there differences in reliability between these two parts?

A: Both components are Active status with identical moisture sensitivity levels (MSL 1 - Unlimited) and RoHS3 compliance. The CRCW08058M87FKEA carries AEC-Q200 automotive qualification, indicating additional qualification testing for automotive applications.

Q: Does the height difference affect PCB assembly?

A: The 0.6mm difference in seated height (0.66mm vs 0.50mm) is within standard tolerances for 0805 package components and does not affect PCB assembly or reflow processes.

Q: What does the ±100ppm/°C temperature coefficient mean?

A: The temperature coefficient specifies the maximum change in resistance per degree Celsius across the operating temperature range. Both parts maintain ±100ppm/°C, ensuring stable resistance values across -55°C to 155°C.
