Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RCS3216F8060CS is determined by strict alignment of the following parameters:

Critical Electrical Parameters:

• Resistance value: 806 Ohms
• Tolerance: ±1%
• Power rating: 0.25W (1/4W)
• Temperature coefficient: ±100ppm/°C
• Operating temperature range: -55°C ~ 155°C

Critical Mechanical Parameters:

• Package type: 1206 (3216 Metric)
• Number of terminations: 2
• Physical dimensions compatible with 1206 footprint

Compliance Requirements:

• RoHS3 compliance
• Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited)
• Thick film composition

All identified substitute parts meet these criteria. Variations in product status, packaging format (Tape & Reel vs. bulk), and optional certifications (such as AEC-Q200 automotive qualification) do not disqualify substitution when core electrical and mechanical parameters remain identical.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Recommendation: CRCW1206806RFKEA (Vishay Dale)

The CRCW1206806RFKEA is the preferred substitute for new designs. This part maintains Active product status, identical electrical specifications, and includes AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. The seated height of 0.60mm is within acceptable PCB assembly tolerances for 1206 footprints. Inventory availability of 15,505 pieces supports production requirements.

Secondary Recommendation: RC1206FR-07806RL (YAGEO)

The RC1206FR-07806RL is suitable for applications where moisture resistance is a primary design criterion. This part maintains Active product status and identical electrical parameters. The length dimension of 3.10mm represents a minor variation within 1206 package tolerance specifications. Inventory availability of 27,536 pieces provides supply security.

Alternative Option: ERJ-8ENF8060V (Panasonic)

The ERJ-8ENF8060V meets all electrical and mechanical substitution criteria. However, this part carries "Not For New Designs" product status, indicating manufacturer discontinuation trajectory. This part is suitable only for legacy system maintenance or repair applications where design freeze conditions apply. The seated height of 0.70mm remains within acceptable assembly parameters. Inventory availability of 198,560 pieces reflects legacy stock levels.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can CRCW1206806RFKEA replace RCS3216F8060CS in new product designs?

A: Yes. The CRCW1206806RFKEA meets all critical electrical parameters (806 Ohms ±1%, 0.25W, ±100ppm/°C, -55°C to 155°C), mechanical specifications (1206 package, 2 terminations), and compliance requirements (ROHS3, MSL 1). Active product status supports long-term supply continuity.

Q: What is the significance of the "Not For New Designs" status on ERJ-8ENF8060V?

A: This designation indicates the manufacturer (Panasonic) has announced discontinuation or transition plans for this product line. While the part functions identically to the original component, it should not be selected for new product development due to uncertain long-term availability. Use is limited to repair, maintenance, or legacy system applications.

Q: Are there dimensional differences between substitute parts that affect PCB layout?

A: Minor dimensional variations exist within the 1206 package specification. The YAGEO RC1206FR-07806RL has a length of 3.10mm versus 3.20mm for other parts. The Panasonic ERJ-8ENF8060V has a maximum seated height of 0.70mm versus 0.60mm for Vishay Dale. These variations remain within standard 1206 footprint tolerances and do not require PCB redesign.

Q: Do substitute parts require different soldering or assembly parameters?

A: No. All substitute parts use identical 1206 (3216 Metric) package specifications with 2 terminations. Standard SMD assembly processes, reflow profiles, and PCB footprints apply uniformly across all listed substitutes.

Q: Which substitute part offers the best long-term supply availability?

A: CRCW1206806RFKEA (Vishay Dale) and RC1206FR-07806RL (YAGEO) both maintain Active product status with substantial inventory levels (15,505 and 27,536 pieces respectively), supporting sustained production requirements. CRCW1206806RFKEA includes AEC-Q200 certification, indicating automotive-grade reliability standards.

Q: Can substitute parts be mixed within the same assembly?

A: Yes. All substitute parts meet identical electrical specifications (806 Ohms ±1%, 0.25W, ±100ppm/°C) and mechanical requirements (1206 package). Mixing parts from different manufacturers within a single PCB assembly does not create functional or reliability issues.
