Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility is determined by the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Compatibility Criteria:

• Resistance value: 30.1 kOhms (exact match required)
• Package / Case: 0805 (2012 Metric) (physical and electrical compatibility)
• Composition: Thin Film (electrical performance characteristics)
• Automotive AEC-Q200 rating (application requirement)
• Anti-Sulfur construction (environmental durability)
• RoHS3 compliance (regulatory requirement)
• Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (handling and storage compatibility)

Allowable Variation Parameters:

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

All identified substitute parts meet these criteria and are classified as active products with current manufacturing status.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Susumu RG Series Substitutes (RG2012N-3012-B-T5, RG2012N-3012-W-T1, RG2012N-3012-W-T5):

These parts maintain manufacturer continuity with the original RG2012N-3012-C-T5 and offer tighter tolerance specifications. All three are active products with current manufacturing support. The RG2012N-3012-B-T5 provides ±0.1% tolerance, while RG2012N-3012-W-T1 and RG2012N-3012-W-T5 offer ±0.05% tolerance. All maintain identical power ratings, package dimensions, and operating temperature ranges. Selection among these three depends on tolerance requirements for the specific application circuit.

Vishay Dale TNPW Series Substitutes (TNPW080530K1BYEA, TNPW080530K1BYEN):

These parts provide cross-manufacturer substitution with enhanced power rating (0.26W versus 0.125W) and extended operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 175°C versus -55°C ~ 155°C). Both are active products with current manufacturing status. The TNPW series includes moisture-resistant construction in addition to anti-sulfur features. Tolerance is ±0.1%, meeting the original specification. These parts are suitable for applications requiring higher thermal margin or extended temperature operation.

All substitute parts maintain AEC-Q200 automotive qualification, ROHS3 compliance, and Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 rating, ensuring regulatory and environmental compatibility with the original component.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RG2012N-3012-B-T5 directly replace RG2012N-3012-C-T5?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical resistance (30.1 kOhms), package (0805), power rating (0.125W), and operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 155°C). The RG2012N-3012-B-T5 offers improved tolerance (±0.1% versus ±0.25%), which is a performance enhancement. All automotive and compliance certifications are identical.

Q: What is the difference between RG2012N-3012-W-T1 and RG2012N-3012-W-T5?

A: Both parts are electrically identical with ±0.05% tolerance, 30.1 kOhms resistance, and 0.125W power rating. The difference is packaging format: T1 and T5 refer to different tape reel specifications. Selection depends on your procurement and assembly equipment compatibility.

Q: Can TNPW080530K1BYEA be used in place of the original RG2012N-3012-C-T5?

A: Yes. The TNPW080530K1BYEA meets all mandatory compatibility criteria: 30.1 kOhms resistance, 0805 package, thin film composition, AEC-Q200 rating, anti-sulfur construction, and RoHS3 compliance. The part offers enhanced specifications with 0.26W power rating and -55°C ~ 175°C operating range. Tolerance is ±0.1%, which satisfies the original ±0.25% requirement.

Q: Are TNPW080530K1BYEA and TNPW080530K1BYEN interchangeable?

A: Yes. Both parts are electrically and mechanically identical with 30.1 kOhms resistance, ±0.1% tolerance, 0.26W power rating, and 0805 package. The difference is tape reel configuration (BYEA versus BYEN). Selection depends on assembly equipment specifications.

Q: What is the physical compatibility of substitute parts with the original RG2012N-3012-C-T5?

A: All substitute parts use the 0805 (2012 Metric) package with identical footprint dimensions (0.079" L x 0.049" W / 2.00mm x 1.25mm). Maximum seated height is 0.020" (0.50mm) for Susumu parts and 0.022" (0.55mm) for Vishay Dale parts. Both heights are within standard PCB assembly tolerances and are mechanically compatible with the original design.

Q: Why is the original RG2012N-3012-C-T5 marked as obsolete?

A: The RG2012N-3012-C-T5 is no longer in active production. The substitute parts listed provide equivalent or enhanced electrical performance with active manufacturing status, ensuring long-term supply chain availability and continued support.

Q: Which substitute offers the best tolerance specification?

A: RG2012N-3012-W-T1 and RG2012N-3012-W-T5 both offer ±0.05% tolerance, which is the tightest specification available among all substitutes. These parts are suitable for precision circuit applications requiring minimal resistance variation.

Q: Do all substitute parts meet automotive standards?

A: Yes. All substitute parts carry AEC-Q200 automotive qualification, anti-sulfur construction, and RoHS3 compliance. Moisture Sensitivity Level is 1 (Unlimited) for all parts, indicating no special moisture handling requirements during assembly.
