Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the RCS3216F9313CS are qualified based on strict equivalence of the following parameters:

Electrical Equivalence Requirements:

• Resistance value: 931 kOhms (exact match)
• Tolerance: ±1% (exact match)
• Power rating: 0.25W / 1/4W (exact match)
• Temperature coefficient: ±100ppm/°C (exact match)
• Operating temperature range: -55°C ~ 155°C (exact match)

Mechanical Equivalence Requirements:

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

Compliance Requirements:

• RoHS3 compliance (maintained)
• Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (maintained)

All identified substitute parts meet these criteria. Variations in physical dimensions (length, width, height) within the 1206 package specification and differences in product status or packaging format do not affect functional substitution capability.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Selection: RCS3216F9313CS (Samsung Electro-Mechanics)

The RCS3216F9313CS remains the primary choice for new designs. This part maintains active production status, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain stability. The anti-sulfur feature provides enhanced environmental protection in corrosive atmospheres. Current inventory of 1001 pieces supports immediate procurement requirements.

Secondary Selection: RC1206FR-07931KL (YAGEO)

The RC1206FR-07931KL qualifies as a direct functional equivalent with active product status. This part is suitable for applications where Samsung supply is constrained. YAGEO's RC_L series maintains identical electrical and mechanical specifications with moisture-resistant thick film construction. Inventory availability of 10500 pieces provides supply flexibility.

Tertiary Selection: ERJ-8ENF9313V (Panasonic Electronic Components)

The ERJ-8ENF9313V is electrically and mechanically equivalent but carries "Not For New Designs" status. This designation indicates Panasonic has discontinued active development for this part number. While the part meets all functional requirements and maintains ROHS3 compliance, selection should be limited to legacy system maintenance or applications where existing design validation has been completed. The automotive AEC-Q200 qualification provides additional assurance for automotive applications if required.

Selection Criteria Summary:

• New designs: RCS3216F9313CS or RC1206FR-07931KL
• Legacy systems: Any of the three parts based on existing design validation
• Automotive applications: ERJ-8ENF9313V (AEC-Q200 qualified) or alternatives if automotive qualification is required

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can ERJ-8ENF9313V be used in new designs?

A: ERJ-8ENF9313V carries "Not For New Designs" status from Panasonic. While electrically and mechanically equivalent to RCS3216F9313CS, this designation indicates the manufacturer has discontinued active development. For new designs, RCS3216F9313CS or RC1206FR-07931KL are recommended to ensure long-term supply availability.

Q: Are there physical dimension differences between these parts?

A: All three parts conform to the 1206 (3216 Metric) package specification. Minor variations exist within tolerance: RCS3216F9313CS measures 0.126" L x 0.063" W (3.20mm x 1.60mm) with 0.026" max height; ERJ-8ENF9313V measures 0.126" L x 0.063" W (3.20mm x 1.60mm) with 0.028" max height; RC1206FR-07931KL measures 0.122" L x 0.063" W (3.10mm x 1.60mm) with 0.026" max height. These variations remain within standard 1206 package tolerances and do not affect PCB layout or assembly compatibility.

Q: What is the difference between anti-sulfur and moisture-resistant features?

A: RCS3216F9313CS includes anti-sulfur protection, which provides resistance to sulfur-containing atmospheric contaminants and corrosive gases. RC1206FR-07931KL features moisture-resistant construction for protection against humidity and moisture ingress. Both features are environmental protection mechanisms; selection depends on the specific application environment. ERJ-8ENF9313V includes automotive AEC-Q200 qualification, indicating automotive-grade reliability testing.

Q: Can these parts be used interchangeably in existing assemblies?

A: Yes. All three parts are electrically and mechanically equivalent within the 1206 package specification. They share identical resistance (931 kOhms), tolerance (±1%), power rating (0.25W), temperature coefficient (±100ppm/°C), and operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 155°C). Interchangeability is confirmed for applications where these specifications are required.

Q: What does "Not For New Designs" mean for ERJ-8ENF9313V?

A: "Not For New Designs" indicates that Panasonic has transitioned this part to end-of-life status and is not recommending it for new product development. The part remains available and functional but may have limited future availability. This status does not affect current performance or compliance; it reflects the manufacturer's product lifecycle management strategy.

Q: Are all parts ROHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. RCS3216F9313CS, ERJ-8ENF9313V, and RC1206FR-07931KL all maintain ROHS3 compliance. All parts are also REACH unaffected and carry MSL 1 (unlimited moisture sensitivity level), indicating no special moisture handling requirements during storage or assembly.

Q: What is the difference in packaging between these parts?

A: All three parts are supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format, which is standard for automated assembly processes. Packaging format does not affect electrical or mechanical performance. Tape & Reel packaging ensures consistent component orientation and spacing for pick-and-place equipment.
