RCS3216F8062CS Equivalent & Substitute Parts Reference

Part Overview

The RCS3216F8062CS is an 80.6 kOhms ±1% 0.25W thick film chip resistor in 1206 (3216 Metric) package manufactured by Samsung Electro-Mechanics. This component is classified as Active product status with anti-sulfur and moisture-resistant properties. The part is ROHS3 compliant and suitable for general industrial applications requiring precision resistive elements within the specified temperature and power ratings.

Substitute parts are identified based on matching electrical specifications (resistance value, tolerance, power rating) and mechanical compatibility (package type, dimensions, termination count) to ensure direct functional equivalence in circuit applications.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RCS3216F8062CS is determined by strict alignment with the following critical parameters:

Electrical Parameters (Must Match Exactly):

• Resistance: 80.6 kOhms
• Tolerance: ±1%
• Power Rating: 0.25W (1/4W)
• Temperature Coefficient: ±100ppm/°C
• Operating Temperature Range: -55°C ~ 155°C

Mechanical Parameters (Must Match Exactly):

• Package Type: 1206 (3216 Metric)
• Number of Terminations: 2
• Composition: Thick Film

Compliance Parameters (Must Match or Exceed):

• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited)

All identified substitute parts meet these criteria. Variations in physical dimensions (length, width, height) within the 1206 package specification, packaging format (Tape & Reel vs. bulk), and product status do not affect functional substitutability in circuit applications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Selection (Active Status): The RCS3216F8062CS, CRCW120680K6FKEA, and RC1206FR-0780K6L are all classified as Active products and are suitable for new designs. These three parts are functionally equivalent and interchangeable based on electrical and mechanical specifications.

Secondary Selection (Legacy Status): The ERJ-8ENF8062V carries a "Not For New Designs" product status classification. While this part meets all electrical and mechanical substitution criteria, it is not recommended for incorporation into new circuit designs. This part is suitable only for replacement or repair of existing assemblies containing the original ERJ-8ENF8062V component.

Compliance Considerations: All four substitute parts are ROHS3 compliant and carry MSL rating 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions during storage and handling. All parts are REACH Unaffected and classified under ECCN EAR99.

Automotive Applications: The CRCW120680K6FKEA and ERJ-8ENF8062V include AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. The RCS3216F8062CS and RC1206FR-0780K6L do not carry this certification. Selection between automotive-qualified and non-qualified parts depends on application requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can CRCW120680K6FKEA replace RCS3216F8062CS in any circuit?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical specifications (80.6 kOhms, ±1%, 0.25W, ±100ppm/°C, -55°C ~ 155°C) and mechanical compatibility (1206 package, 2 terminations, thick film composition). Physical dimension variations (height: 0.024" vs. 0.026") fall within 1206 package tolerance and do not affect circuit function.

Q: Why is ERJ-8ENF8062V marked "Not For New Designs"?

A: Product status reflects manufacturer lifecycle decisions. The ERJ-8ENF8062V remains functionally equivalent and is suitable for replacement applications. New circuit designs should specify active-status alternatives: RCS3216F8062CS, CRCW120680K6FKEA, or RC1206FR-0780K6L.

Q: What is the difference between anti-sulfur and automotive AEC-Q200 features?

A: Anti-sulfur protection addresses environmental corrosion from sulfur compounds. AEC-Q200 is an automotive qualification standard covering reliability testing, temperature cycling, and performance consistency. These are distinct features; a part may have one, both, or neither. Selection depends on application environment and industry requirements.

Q: Are all substitute parts available in Tape & Reel packaging?

A: The RCS3216F8062CS is specified with "-" packaging notation. CRCW120680K6FKEA, ERJ-8ENF8062V, and RC1206FR-0780K6L are all available in Tape & Reel (TR) format. Packaging format does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility; it reflects supply chain and assembly process preferences.

Q: Can these 1206 resistors be used interchangeably on the same PCB?

A: Yes, within the constraints of PCB layout. All parts conform to 1206 (3216 Metric) package dimensions and fit standard 1206 footprints. Height variations (0.024" to 0.028") are within specification and do not affect PCB assembly or clearance in typical applications.

Q: What does MSL 1 (Unlimited) mean for component storage?

A: MSL 1 indicates the component has no moisture sensitivity restrictions. These parts do not require special dry-pack storage, desiccant, or time-limited shelf life management. Standard warehouse storage conditions are acceptable.
