Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the RG1608N-1072-C-T5 is determined by strict equivalence in the following parameters:

Critical Matching Parameters:

• Resistance value: 10.7 kOhms (exact match required)
• Package / Case: 0603 (1608 Metric) (physical and electrical compatibility)
• Power rating: 0.1W (1/10W) (thermal and electrical performance)
• Composition: Thin Film (electrical characteristics and stability)
• Temperature coefficient: ±10ppm/°C (thermal stability)
• Operating temperature range: -55°C ~ 155°C (environmental performance)
• Features: Anti-Sulfur, Automotive AEC-Q200 (reliability and application suitability)

Allowable Variation Parameter:

• Tolerance: The substitute parts may have tighter tolerance specifications (±0.1% or ±0.05%) than the original ±0.25%, as tighter tolerances are functionally superior and backward-compatible in applications designed for the original tolerance.

All identified substitute parts maintain identical mechanical dimensions, thermal characteristics, and automotive qualification ratings, ensuring direct functional replacement in existing designs.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

RG1608N-1072-B-T5 is suitable for applications where the original RG1608N-1072-C-T5 is specified. This substitute offers improved tolerance specification (±0.1% versus ±0.25%) while maintaining all electrical, thermal, and mechanical characteristics. The part is currently in active production status with confirmed inventory availability. ROHS3 compliance and AEC-Q200 automotive qualification are maintained.

RG1608N-1072-W-T1 is suitable for applications requiring enhanced tolerance performance. This substitute provides the tightest tolerance specification (±0.05%) among available alternatives while maintaining all other electrical, thermal, and mechanical parameters. The part is in active production status with the highest inventory availability. ROHS3 compliance and AEC-Q200 automotive qualification are maintained.

Both substitute parts are direct functional replacements for the obsolete RG1608N-1072-C-T5 in applications designed for 10.7 kOhms ±0.25% thin film resistors in 0603 package. Selection between the two substitutes depends on tolerance requirements of the specific application circuit.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RG1608N-1072-B-T5 or RG1608N-1072-W-T1 be used as direct replacements for RG1608N-1072-C-T5?

A: Yes. Both substitute parts are direct functional replacements. They maintain identical resistance value (10.7 kOhms), package dimensions (0603 / 1608 Metric), power rating (0.1W), thermal characteristics (±10ppm/°C, -55°C ~ 155°C), and automotive qualification (AEC-Q200). The substitute parts feature tighter tolerance specifications, which are functionally superior and backward-compatible with designs specified for ±0.25% tolerance.

Q: What is the difference between the two substitute parts?

A: The primary difference is tolerance specification. RG1608N-1072-B-T5 offers ±0.1% tolerance, while RG1608N-1072-W-T1 offers ±0.05% tolerance. All other electrical and mechanical parameters are identical. Selection depends on the tolerance requirement of the application circuit.

Q: Are the physical dimensions identical across all three parts?

A: Yes. All three parts (main and substitutes) share identical physical dimensions: 0.063" L x 0.031" W (1.60mm x 0.80mm) with maximum seated height of 0.020" (0.50mm). They are fully compatible with existing PCB layouts and assembly processes.

Q: Do the substitute parts maintain automotive qualification?

A: Yes. Both RG1608N-1072-B-T5 and RG1608N-1072-W-T1 are AEC-Q200 qualified with anti-sulfur coating, identical to the original part. They are suitable for automotive applications.

Q: What is the difference in packaging between the main part and substitutes?

A: The main part RG1608N-1072-C-T5 is supplied in standard packaging. Both substitute parts (RG1608N-1072-B-T5 and RG1608N-1072-W-T1) are supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) packaging, which is standard for high-volume production and automated assembly.

Q: Are all three parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. The main part and both substitute parts are ROHS3 compliant. All parts are REACH unaffected and classified under ECCN EAR99.

Q: What is the moisture sensitivity level for these parts?

A: All three parts have Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) 1, indicating unlimited shelf life without special moisture control requirements.
