Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the RG2012N-2672-C-T5 is determined by the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Compatibility Parameters:

• Resistance value: 26.7 kOhms (exact match required)
• Package / Case: 0805 (2012 Metric) (physical and electrical footprint compatibility)
• Composition: Thin Film (electrical performance characteristics)
• Temperature Coefficient: ±10ppm/°C (thermal stability)
• Automotive AEC-Q200 rating (quality and reliability standard)
• RoHS3 compliance (regulatory requirement)

Substitution Allowances:

• Tolerance: Tighter tolerances (±0.1%, ±0.05%) are acceptable as they represent improved precision
• Power Rating: Higher power ratings (0.26W) are acceptable as they provide additional thermal margin
• Operating Temperature Range: Extended upper temperature limits are acceptable
• Packaging format: Tape & Reel (TR) is acceptable for the obsolete component's cut-tape or bulk format

All substitute parts listed maintain identical resistance, package, composition, temperature coefficient, and automotive qualification. Variations in tolerance and power rating represent performance upgrades rather than functional deviations.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Susumu RG Series (Same Manufacturer) - Recommended for Direct Replacement:

The three active Susumu RG2012N-2672 variants (RG2012N-2672-B-T5, RG2012N-2672-W-T1, RG2012N-2672-W-T5) provide direct substitution with improved tolerance specifications. These components maintain identical electrical characteristics, package dimensions, and automotive qualification. Selection among these three should be based on tolerance requirements:

• RG2012N-2672-B-T5 (±0.1% tolerance): Suitable for applications requiring improved precision over the original ±0.25% specification while maintaining the same power rating and operating temperature range.

• RG2012N-2672-W-T1 and RG2012N-2672-W-T5 (±0.05% tolerance): Appropriate for precision-critical applications demanding the tightest tolerance available within the Susumu RG series. Both variants are functionally equivalent; selection depends on packaging and supply chain considerations.

Vishay Dale TNPW080526K7BYEA - Cross-Manufacturer Alternative:

The TNPW080526K7BYEA from Vishay Dale provides substitution with enhanced power rating (0.26W versus 0.125W) and extended operating temperature range (-55°C to 175°C versus -55°C to 155°C). This component carries identical AEC-Q200 automotive qualification and RoHS3 compliance. The increased power rating provides additional thermal margin in applications approaching the original component's power dissipation limits. The ±0.1% tolerance matches the RG2012N-2672-B-T5 specification.

All substitute parts maintain the mandatory compatibility parameters: 26.7 kOhms resistance, 0805 package, thin film composition, ±10ppm/°C temperature coefficient, and automotive AEC-Q200 qualification.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RG2012N-2672-W-T1 and RG2012N-2672-W-T5 be used interchangeably?

A: Yes. Both components are electrically and mechanically identical, differing only in packaging format (both supplied in Tape & Reel). Selection depends on assembly process requirements and supply chain availability.

Q: What is the primary advantage of substituting with RG2012N-2672-B-T5?

A: The RG2012N-2672-B-T5 offers improved tolerance (±0.1% versus ±0.25%), providing tighter resistance accuracy while maintaining all other electrical and mechanical specifications. This upgrade is beneficial for circuits sensitive to component value variation.

Q: Why does TNPW080526K7BYEA have a higher power rating?

A: The TNPW080526K7BYEA is rated for 0.26W compared to the original 0.125W. This higher power rating reflects the component's thermal design and does not affect electrical performance in circuits designed for 0.125W operation. The higher rating provides additional thermal margin and reliability in applications approaching power dissipation limits.

Q: Are all substitute parts suitable for automotive applications?

A: Yes. All substitute parts carry AEC-Q200 automotive qualification, anti-sulfur construction, and RoHS3 compliance, meeting automotive industry standards equivalent to the original component.

Q: Does the extended operating temperature range of TNPW080526K7BYEA provide any functional benefit?

A: The TNPW080526K7BYEA operates to 175°C versus 155°C for the original component. This extended range provides additional margin for applications operating at elevated temperatures but does not alter electrical performance within the original -55°C to 155°C specification.

Q: Can the 0805 package dimensions vary between manufacturers?

A: The 0805 (2012 Metric) package is standardized. All listed components share identical footprint dimensions (0.079" L x 0.049" W / 2.00mm x 1.25mm) and are directly compatible with existing PCB layouts. Height variation (0.50mm maximum for Susumu, 0.55mm maximum for Vishay Dale) remains within standard assembly tolerances.

Q: What is the significance of MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity?

A: MSL 1 indicates unlimited shelf life without moisture bake-out requirements. All listed components share this specification, eliminating moisture handling concerns during storage and assembly.
