Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the RCS3216F1624CS is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Electrical Parameters:

• Resistance value: 1.62 MOhms
• Tolerance: ±1%
• Power rating: 0.25W (1/4W)
• Temperature coefficient: ±100ppm/°C
• Operating temperature range: -55°C ~ 155°C

Mechanical Parameters:

• Package format: 1206 (3216 Metric)
• Number of terminations: 2
• Composition: Thick Film

Compliance Parameters:

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

The substitute part RC1206FR-071M62L from YAGEO meets all electrical and mechanical requirements. Physical dimensions show minor variations within acceptable tolerances for 1206 package specifications. Both parts maintain identical compliance certifications and environmental ratings.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the RCS3216F1624CS and RC1206FR-071M62L are Active status products with full ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected certification, qualifying them for equivalent circuit applications. Selection between these parts is based on availability and packaging requirements rather than electrical or environmental performance differences.

The RCS3216F1624CS includes anti-sulfur protection in addition to moisture resistance. The RC1206FR-071M62L provides moisture resistance without specified anti-sulfur treatment. For applications in sulfur-rich environments, the Samsung part offers enhanced protection. For standard industrial and commercial applications, both parts deliver equivalent performance.

Packaging format differs: RCS3216F1624CS is supplied in standard packaging, while RC1206FR-071M62L is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format. Tape & Reel packaging is standard for automated assembly processes. Bulk packaging may be available upon request for either manufacturer.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RC1206FR-071M62L replace RCS3216F1624CS in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical specifications (1.62 MOhms ±1%, 0.25W), temperature characteristics (±100ppm/°C, -55°C to 155°C), and package format (1206). Compliance certifications are equivalent. Physical dimensions show minor variations within 1206 package tolerances and do not affect PCB layout or assembly.

Q: What is the difference in environmental protection between these parts?

A: The RCS3216F1624CS specifies anti-sulfur and moisture-resistant properties. The RC1206FR-071M62L specifies moisture-resistant properties without documented anti-sulfur treatment. For applications exposed to sulfurous atmospheres or corrosive environments, the Samsung part provides additional protection. For standard operating environments, both parts offer equivalent moisture protection.

Q: Are there packaging format considerations for substitution?

A: The RCS3216F1624CS is supplied in standard packaging. The RC1206FR-071M62L is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format, which is optimized for automated pick-and-place assembly. Tape & Reel format is standard for high-volume manufacturing. If bulk or alternative packaging is required, contact the manufacturer directly.

Q: Do both parts meet current compliance requirements?

A: Yes. Both parts are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected. Both maintain Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited), indicating no special moisture handling requirements during storage or assembly. Both are suitable for applications requiring RoHS compliance.

Q: What is the inventory status for each part?

A: RCS3216F1624CS has 778 units in stock. RC1206FR-071M62L has 3760 units in stock. Availability may vary by distributor and region. Consult current inventory systems for real-time stock status.
