Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RCS3216F9094CS is determined by strict alignment of the following parameters:

Critical Matching Parameters:

• Resistance value: 9.09 MOhms
• Tolerance: ±1%
• Power rating: 0.25W (1/4W)
• Package: 1206 (3216 Metric)
• Composition: Thick Film
• Temperature coefficient: ±100ppm/°C
• Operating temperature range: -55°C ~ 155°C
• RoHS3 compliance
• MSL rating: 1 (Unlimited)

The CRCW12069M09FKEA from Vishay Dale meets all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. Both parts share identical resistance, tolerance, power rating, package dimensions, and thermal specifications. Both components are ROHS3 compliant with MSL 1 rating, confirming compatibility for direct substitution in applications where the original part is specified.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the RCS3216F9094CS and CRCW12069M09FKEA are Active status components meeting ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 requirements. The CRCW12069M09FKEA carries AEC-Q200 automotive qualification, providing additional reliability assurance for applications requiring automotive-grade components. The seated height difference of 0.002" (0.06mm) between parts is negligible for standard PCB assembly processes and does not affect functional performance or board layout compatibility. Selection between these parts depends on application requirements: the Samsung part is suitable for general industrial applications, while the Vishay Dale part is specified for automotive or mission-critical environments where AEC-Q200 qualification is required.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can CRCW12069M09FKEA directly replace RCS3216F9094CS in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical specifications (9.09 MOhms ±1%, 0.25W), package dimensions (1206/3216 Metric), and thermal characteristics (-55°C ~ 155°C). The 0.002" seated height difference does not impact PCB assembly or circuit performance.

Q: What is the significance of AEC-Q200 qualification on the Vishay part?

A: AEC-Q200 is an automotive industry standard qualification. The CRCW12069M09FKEA meets this standard, making it suitable for automotive applications and environments with stringent reliability requirements. The Samsung RCS3216F9094CS does not carry this designation.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both RCS3216F9094CS and CRCW12069M09FKEA are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting environmental regulatory requirements for commercial and industrial applications.

Q: What does MSL 1 (Unlimited) mean for these resistors?

A: MSL 1 indicates the lowest moisture sensitivity level. These components can be stored indefinitely without moisture bake-out requirements prior to soldering, simplifying inventory management and assembly processes.

Q: Are the package dimensions identical between both parts?

A: Yes. Both components use the 1206 (3216 Metric) package with dimensions of 0.126" L x 0.063" W (3.20mm x 1.60mm). The maximum seated height differs by 0.002" (0.06mm), which is within standard PCB assembly tolerances and does not affect circuit design or layout.

Q: What is the temperature coefficient specification and why does it matter?

A: Both parts have a temperature coefficient of ±100ppm/°C, meaning resistance changes by up to 100 parts per million for each degree Celsius change in operating temperature. This specification is critical for precision analog circuits and high-impedance applications where temperature stability is required.
