Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RG2012N-1622-C-T5 is determined by the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Compatibility Criteria:

• Resistance value: 16.2 kOhms (exact match required)
• Package / Case: 0805 (2012 Metric) (exact match required)
• Composition: Thin Film (exact match required)
• Temperature Coefficient: ±10ppm/°C (exact match required)
• Automotive AEC-Q200 rating (required for equivalent substitution)
• Anti-Sulfur feature (required for equivalent substitution)
• RoHS3 Compliance (required for equivalent substitution)
• Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (required for equivalent substitution)

Allowable Variation Parameters:

• Tolerance: May be equal to or tighter (lower numerical value) than ±0.25%
• Power Rating: May be equal to or higher than 0.125W
• Operating Temperature Range: May be equal to or extended beyond -55°C ~ 155°C
• Packaging format: May differ (Tape & Reel acceptable for bulk applications)

All substitute parts listed maintain the mandatory compatibility criteria while offering improvements in tolerance specification and/or power rating capability.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Susumu RG Series Substitutes (RG2012N-1622-B-T5, RG2012N-1622-W-T1, RG2012N-1622-W-T5):

These parts maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications to the RG2012N-1622-C-T5 while offering tighter tolerance specifications. All three are active products with current manufacturing status. Selection between these variants depends on tolerance requirements:

• RG2012N-1622-B-T5 provides ±0.1% tolerance
• RG2012N-1622-W-T1 and RG2012N-1622-W-T5 provide ±0.05% tolerance

The primary difference between RG2012N-1622-W-T1 and RG2012N-1622-W-T5 is packaging configuration (T1 vs. T5 tape specifications), with no electrical performance difference.

Vishay Dale TNPW Series Substitutes (TNPW080516K2BYEA, TNPW080516K2BYEN):

These parts offer enhanced power rating capability (0.26W versus 0.125W) and extended operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 175°C versus -55°C ~ 155°C). Tolerance specification is ±0.1%. Both parts are electrically and mechanically compatible with the original component. The TNPW series includes moisture-resistant construction in addition to anti-sulfur features.

TNPW080516K2BYEA and TNPW080516K2BYEN are functionally equivalent with differences limited to tape configuration specifications.

Recommendation Basis:

All substitute parts maintain AEC-Q200 automotive qualification, RoHS3 compliance, and MSL 1 rating. Selection should be based on application-specific tolerance requirements and thermal performance margins. The Susumu RG series maintains exact power rating equivalence, while the Vishay Dale TNPW series provides additional thermal and power dissipation headroom.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RG2012N-1622-B-T5 directly replace RG2012N-1622-C-T5?

A: Yes. The RG2012N-1622-B-T5 is a direct substitute with identical resistance, package, power rating, and operating temperature range. The ±0.1% tolerance is tighter than the original ±0.25% specification, making it suitable for applications where the original tolerance was acceptable.

Q: What is the difference between RG2012N-1622-W-T1 and RG2012N-1622-W-T5?

A: Both parts have identical electrical specifications (16.2 kOhms ±0.05%, 0.125W, 0805 package). The difference is in tape configuration (T1 versus T5 reel specifications). Selection depends on manufacturing equipment compatibility and tape handling requirements.

Q: Why do TNPW080516K2BYEA and TNPW080516K2BYEN have higher power ratings?

A: The Vishay Dale TNPW series is rated for 0.26W power dissipation compared to 0.125W for the Susumu RG series. This provides additional thermal margin in applications with higher power dissipation requirements. The 0805 package dimensions remain identical.

Q: Are the Vishay Dale TNPW parts suitable for automotive applications?

A: Yes. TNPW080516K2BYEA and TNPW080516K2BYEN both carry AEC-Q200 automotive qualification, anti-sulfur construction, and moisture-resistant features. Operating temperature range extends to 175°C, exceeding the original specification.

Q: What is the significance of MSL 1 rating?

A: Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 indicates unlimited shelf life without moisture bake-out requirements. All listed parts maintain MSL 1 rating, ensuring consistent handling and storage procedures.

Q: Can I use a substitute part with tighter tolerance in a design that specified ±0.25%?

A: Yes. Tighter tolerance specifications are backward compatible. A ±0.05% or ±0.1% part will satisfy any application requirement for ±0.25% tolerance. The actual resistance value will remain within the tighter specification band.

Q: Are all substitute parts RoHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. All listed substitute parts maintain ROHS3 compliance status, consistent with the original RG2012N-1622-C-T5 specification.

Q: What is the maximum operating temperature for each substitute?

A: Susumu RG series parts (RG2012N-1622-B-T5, RG2012N-1622-W-T1, RG2012N-1622-W-T5) operate to 155°C. Vishay Dale TNPW series parts (TNPW080516K2BYEA, TNPW080516K2BYEN) operate to 175°C, providing 20°C additional margin.
